Tribeca Baby: Trade Roughage 03/05/08

  • I got a press release about this yesterday, but in the pre-SXSW rush, I didn’t have time to post it. Baby Mama, a comedy starring Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, will open the Tribeca Film Festival. Is this a bad sign for Tina Fey’s  highly-anticipated (by Karina, at least) movie star debut, considering that the last comedy to open the festival was Raising Helen in 2004? Maybe let’s just hope that Baby Mama is the United 93 of “career gal bickering with her white trash maternity surrogate” movies, and leave it at that.
  • Dana Harris has a guide to where to eat whilst in Austin for SXSW. She’s totally right about the place at the Driskill, and totally wrong about Iron Works.
  • Jason Reitman is gonna direct Jim Carrey in Pierre Pierre, described as “a politically incorrect story” about “a self-indulgent French nihilist.”
  • Patrick Swayze’s rep has confirmed tabloid stories that the actor is suffering from pancreatic cancer, but says reports of his imminent demise are “absolutely untrue.”
