Day #30: Run, Fat Boy, Run

Ms Olive and I went down to the Embarcadero Cinema to see a free screening of Run, Fat Boy, Run  directed by David Schwimmer and starring Simon Pegg. All courtesy of the  San Francisco International Film Festival . It is a really good, funny movie. Much of the action of the movie revolves around a London marathon and Ms O actually ran the Flora London marathon in April 2001 and I went to cheer her on. It was cool to be reminded of that time in our lives. 

David Schwimmer came by after the movie for Q&A and he was quite funny and endearing. I did not really like his character on Friends but here in person he seemed so likable. I guess he seemed less neurotic and know it all-y. This is the first feature he has directed. He was wearing a black leather jacket and so was I. When he came down the aisle are jackets touched so I can say that I've touched a celebrity on my forty days.

Um, I think technically you can say your leather jacket (which is fabulous, by the way) touched a celebrity's leather jacket. But I see your point.
