Work Together Like Brothers


Four Brothers Premiere
Clearview Chelsea West theater
6pm arrivals/ August 9, 2005

Long arrival area in the shape of an 'L'. The photographers ran only 2 rows deep, probably because there was another premiere going on uptown at the same time. The entire arrivals area was tented.

Everything at this premiere ran VERY smoothly. PR stopped all the talent (although the rug got a little crowded at times), and the celebs were also co-operative. Wahlberg was actually dressed nice (no jeans, baseball cap), and we had a surprise guest... Linsey Lohan! We haven't had a top notch surprise like that in a long time... AND SHE POSED! They even gave us the cast shot, and various two shots all along the rug.

If a had to say something negative about the event , it would be Mitch's behavior. He was yelling 'FRONT PAGE' for the entire event. The problem with this is that it caused the talent to constantly look away from the rest of the arrival line. Even Brian let Mitch know exactly how he felt about his actions (It went something like, "You #@%#$@*^^%).

This is becoming a problem with Mitch and I think it reflects badly on the entire press line. Now pardon me if I'm not very PC with my following statements, but I think they should set up a "SPECIAL' area just for him, bring him in on the short bus, and allow him to work. I don't want to deny the guy working privileges, but I do think he needs professional supervision...(aside from the baseball bat to the cranium everyone would love to provide to him).
