PARIS FILM FESTIVAL AND SCISSOR SISTERS CONCERT

Jul 05.10

What a way to celebrate July 4th. So many friend gathered for the cocktail reception given by the Paris Film Festival to honor me. My bestest friend, Paula Weinstein and Hannah Rosenberg, her daughter and my goddaughter, are here for fashion week and she was so happy to see film director d’Euzhan Palcy, who directed “A Dry White Season” starring Marlon Brando, which Paula produced.

It was a wonderful surprise to have Rosanna Arquette show up unexpectedly with her beau, Todd. And Jackie Bisset was there too!!!  

With the wonderful film director, d'Euzhan Palcy

My friends from Georgia, Sharon Maxwell Ferguson and Howell Ferguson. They won the Paris trip which includes visiting the set, dining out with me and attending the film festival events. The Scissor Sisters concert was thrown. For good measure

Jackie Bisset and Charlotte Rampling...two beauties, huh?

Todd, Rosanna (Arquette), me, Jackie Bisset, Charlotte Rampling, Richard

Then we all boarded a bus to go to the Scissor Sisters concert

Paula talking to Megan

Nathalie Lafaurie talking to Vania Vadim and behind is Daniel Bruhl, Patrizio and Geraldine

Megan and her mother, Sharon Maxwell Ferguson, who is a G-CAPP board member

Ooops, missed the top of Ana's head but the legs are worth it and she was amazing.

still dressed

whew!!! People went wild

Jason and Ana

It was hard to believe Jason had just done a show in what must have been 105 degree heat. We all could ring our clothes out afterwards. As Richard said, the music was first rate, one of the best rock concerts he’s ever been too. The new album. “Night Work” is fantastic, and perfect to dance to and workout to. Jason sings like a hot angel, looks like Greek God an dances like nobody’s business!

A group of Jason's friends and fans joined us. They were very sweet people. I love how they adore him.

    I just want to say, how much I love You and your movies sooooo much, especially the one you introduced, Klute. OMG that performance was 20000% worthy of that Oscar. They Shoot Horses, Don’t They? is also brilliant, I actually wrote a review about it on my blog (here in Hungary it’s actually the part of the media syllabus). Both films excellently show the problems of true flesh-and-blood people, dealing with REAL problems. I thank and salute You for writing film history with Your performances. And another thing: great blog :) . Love from Hungary! :) :):)

    Dear Jane,
    It was so wonderful to have you right behind us at the concert yesterday night. We are still talking about it. My best friend Cecelia whom Ana dedicated the Mamas song to and my husband Keith sat with me as we watched her daughter and my god daughter Bridget sing with the Sisters while we all got soaked at the hottest concert we ever attended.
    We all kind of grew up with your movies and Aerobic videos and to have this special moment with you is unforgettable.
    Hope you enjoy Paris as we moved here now from NYC and love it!
    LOVE & PEACE!
    Tom, Cecelia, Keith & Bridget

    I must compliment you on the hat you are wearing in these pictures. It is charming… . and your friend Richard with the scarf thrown around his neck. Such a mod couple. I am going to copy that hat trick way out here in the boonies of Prince Edward Island.

    Thanks for sharing the concert pictures. After following your tweets last night, I was hoping to see some.

    Congratulations on the well deserved honor. I watched “They Shoot Horses Don’t They” again recently, and my love for the film was renewed. I first saw it when it was originally released. I will never forget sitting in theater, in the dark, unable to speak or move when it ended.

    Thank-you for sharing your wonderful skills and talent

    Hi Jane:

    First I have to thank you for all the tweets from
    Paris I enjoyed them as through your
    eyes (camera eye).
    I am not familiar with the Scissor Sisters although they look very cool.
    I am sort of a recluse I love the computer and some music mostly 1940-1960
    I’m glad you are looking and feeling so well.
    Take care and have a great summer.

    Myr

    I LOVE YOUR OUTFIT!
    Marlon Brando in “Streetcar Named Desire” was definitely one of the greatest performances I’ve seen of his. I bet “A Dry White Season” is great too!

    I loved the blouse and hat you wore to the reception given in your honor! The blouse looks so elegant! You look great! What fun to read about the reception and concert! The pictures were wonderful! The concert looked like it was “one wild and crazy” time for everyone! Can’t imagine what it would be like performing in heat like that! I’ll have to listen to music by the Scissor Sisters! If Richard thought they were great, then they must be! He should know!

    Loved seeing Rosanna, Charlotte, and Jackie! They all looked so pretty!! I know you’ll miss the friends you made while making this movie! That would be sad to say good-bye! You’ll have to stay in touch with one another!:)

    Take care!

    Immediate impression: OMG YOU LOOK GORGEOUS. Actually, so do Jackie & Charlotte. All three of you look beautiful. What is your secret? Do you have a portrait rotting in the attic?

    Nice pics, Jane. Kerri-anne (our Aussie chat show host – you did an interview with her here a few years ago….amongst the hundreds!) Just did a tribute to you on her show on 50 years of Jane. Great tribute, if I can find it I will post it for you somewhere. Congrats on a wonderful career, you are a legend!

  • "At age 50, I broke all the career rules and left acting for 15 years. Ten of those years I was married to Ted Turner and after that I spent 5 years writing my memoirs and traveling the world on behalf of women and girls. Needless to say, returning to my profession late in life has been an interesting, exciting and unusual experience! "Monster-in-Law" was my first film after this hiatus and was one of my most fun professional experiences after "9 to 5"! During my 15 year absence, I gained confidence and, as a result, I feel that my acting is better, more nuanced and relaxed than ever."
