Happy 26th Birthday!
Mena is twenty-six today! I hope she had a stella day/night!
Wow - a fair bit to say say on this topic today. I finally found some info! For those who don’t know - the film is Robert’s (Brinkmann, Mena’s husband) directorial debut. The film revolves around actor Stephen Tobolowsky and the set up for his birthday party and the stories that Stephen tells (but read more about it all on the various links!). Guests (and cast) of the party are Mena Suvari, Amy Adams, Ann Hearn and others. It sounds very interesting and I’ve read nothign but good things about it so I hope I (and you!) get a chance to see it!

Mena has been spotted at the Screen Actors Guild awards! She is there for Best Cast Assemble for Six Feet Under - good luck to her and th rest of the cast and I’ll post pics and news as it comes in!
More! Go to Getty Images to view stunning pics of Mena at the SAG awards! Sadly Six Feet Under didn’t win for ‘Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series’, but a (also) very deserving CSI: Crime Scene Invertigation did.
This 101-page draft is by Pulitzer Prize-winner David Mamet, based on his 1982 stageplay. William H. Macy, Julia Stiles, Dylan Walsh, Joe Mantegna and Mena Suvari will star for director Stuart Gordon (Re-Animator). No word yet on when exactly filming begins on the indie.
Stockbroker Edmond Burke (Macy) visits a fortune teller who advises him, “You are not where you belong. … We all like to believe we are special. In your case this is true.” This statement sends Edmond down a darkly funny but ultimately tragic path. Continue reading ‘Script review of ‘Edmond’’
The Chicago Sun-Times reports that David Mamet’s play first seen at the Goodman Theatre in 1982 is on its way to the big screen. Dylan Walsh, William H. Macy, Julia Stiles, Joe Mantegna and Mena Suvari are catsed to star in Mamet’s own adaptation of his play ”Edmond.” Stuart Gordon, another Chicago stage alumnus, will direct.
”Edmond” centers on a successful businessman (Macy) who walks out on his family on the advice of a fortune teller. He plunges into New York’s hellish underworld, where he is mugged and robbed before he kills a pimp and a would-be actress, finally ending up in prison.
Walsh plays the police interrogator, and Stiles plays unfortunate waitress Glenna. Gordon, long the guiding spirit of Chicago’s Organic Theater, wrote and directed the cult horror movie classic ”Re-Animator” and co-wrote ”Honey, I Shrunk the Kids.”
