But yeah, I think she probably knows John Cusack is in America's Sweethearts, but has seen American Beauty, and somewhere along the line did not really care about movies.Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14740669500899738381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25566450.post-53004455662084679542008-01-01T10:44:00.000-05:002008-01-01T10:44:00.000-05:00Oh bless her (and him for that matter), it's got t...Oh bless her (and him for that matter), it's got to be incredibly embarassing and uncomfortable for both of them to have had that mistake and they both managed to keep friendly and open heads.Benjihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11619028513298794150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25566450.post-69832393505345688862007-12-30T19:50:00.000-05:002007-12-30T19:50:00.000-05:00He was in Earth Girls Are Easy so much he was in i...He was in <I>Earth Girls Are Easy</I> so much he was in it twice.

If the shop assistant had gone on to say "Really?" a few times, critics would probably have found that scene unrealistically overdone.

I've heard that Elijah Wood and Tobey Maguire get mistaken for each other all the time.<BR/><BR/>I was tempted to cut the girl a tiny bit of slack, that in the cosmic scheme of things, mistaking John Cusack for Kevin Spacey isn't a huge thing, but then I thought, what if she mistook, say, Barack Obama for Osama Bin Laden? Or confronted a political figure for sponsoring a bill they didn't sponsor? Whatever type of journalism you aspire to do, making such an amateur mistake is just inexcusable. The "boom goes the dynamite" guy is more deserving of forgiveness.Richmondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09249037875191740453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25566450.post-63156216974635946382007-12-28T13:24:00.000-05:002007-12-28T13:24:00.000-05:00Wow.
