FOCUS FEATURES Hanna New York Screening & Afterparty
Where: Regal Union Square Stadium, Casa La Femme
Who Was There: Saoirse Ronan, Eric Bana, Joe Wright, Julian Schnabel, Rula Jebreal, Matthew Bomer, Irina Sheik, Coco Rocha, Danny Flaherty, Sofia Black D'Elia, James Newman, Keri Russell, Max Winkler
Other Details: From imdb "Hanna" is about: "A 16-year-old who was raised by her father to be the perfect assassin is dispatched on a mission across Europe, tracked by a ruthless intelligence agent and her operatives." Hanna is played by 16 year old, impossible-to-pronounce-her-name Saoirse Ronan (sounds like Ser-shay), who you might recognize from "Lovely Bones," and "Atonement," thus amping up this trend we've seen lately of young girls becoming empowered and kicking ass. Love it. The "Skins" kids came to see the flick as did Julian Schnabel in his signature glasses and PJs. [Via]

The sales pitch: Cindy gave out her roast chicken recipe and some "70 women (and counting!) got engaged after cooking it for their boyfriends. Magic? Maybe." A gun hidden inside the hollowed out carcass with a note that says "Ring or else?" Perhaps. I'm sure there has been an article about it sandwiched in between how to look thin naked and 167 ways to turn a guy on without really trying.
