A fun little tidbit

[bunniewabbit.livejournal.com]

I was poking around (as you do) and found an article dated March 3, 2007, but I do believe that it's from January '06 (surely it wouldn't be January of this year? I'm losing track of dates, here):

Stranded on a corner with Elijah Wood and Billy Boyd

EDIT: sssneaking figured it out: it was the Sundance Film Festival of '05. Weird that it's dated so recently!

Thanks for the article. Cute!

I believe On a Clear Day was shown at the Edinburgh Film Festival when EII was. So this must have happened in August, 2005. I wonder why "Frankie" didn't post the story until March 3, 2007. The movie has been out for a long time.

I'll bet Billy called someone he knew in Edinburgh and that's who came to pick them up.

Edinburgh was my first thought, as well, but the article clearly states January. So, I'm wondering if it coincided with when Billy was in town for ORC last year, maybe? We need a billy girl here to tell us for sure!

Yeah, you're right. I just read the article again, so disregard what I said above.

I wonder whose publicist it was that screwed up. If they were in LA, most likely it would have been Elijah's.

By "in town," I mean that maybe it premiered in LA around that time.

I'm pretty sure this is the Sundance Premiere of On A Clear Day (some time in Jan 2005). The site in the link is a Utah site plus a quick google shows that Elijah was there for that premiere (e.g. a picture at Always And Forever).

Ah, that makes perfect sense! I'll bet you're right. The only other times I could remember them being somewhere with multiple premieres was Edinburgh or Toronto, and this was clearly not one of those. Thanks!

Gawd, but you're good. I'm going to start calling you Sherlocke. :>D

Not at all. It's just elementary, my dear yeuxdebleu. :-)
