Guy is so method that he's making me learn how to drive! How far is Cornwall from Rome?

yes, the movie just wrapped and i think it is going to be great, thanks for asking.

no, i'm not flying 8 hours to teach you how to drive. they have instructors and vin diesel movies for this sort of thing.

ps- i can keep this secret no longer: KEIRA is the one who spilled wine on your louboutins after the premiere and then made ME the fall guy.

Does Rachel McAdams think it will be better or worse than The Notebook? That is the only litmus test that matters, of course, but my mum would also like to know why they are doing a sequel to The Time Traveler's Wife so soon. She is otherwise very excited to see how they will explain recasting Eric Bana with you.

By the way, Keira says you are a liar.

Our instructor is completely humorless! I think he hates Swedes. He is perfectly pleasant with Elizabeth but when I looked away for a mere three seconds to find my sunglasses, he went on a tirade about the irresponsibility of celebrity culture before storming off! Guy is giving us the next two weeks off so I am willing to be the better person and meet you in London. Think of how much fun you'd have teaching me about stick shifts.

heist afterwards?

A bike messenger almost pays dearly the first time Alicia gets behind the wheel. If the kid didn't have quick reflexes, he'd be splattered across the driver's side door when she pulled out of her parking spot. Instead, the only thing they have to show for Alicia's disregard to her surroundings is the remnants of the kid's peach slurpee hitting the back window as he shrieks a barrage of expletives at the car while it speeds away.

"So next time let's try looking for oncoming traffic first," Domhnall says with a calm that he certainly does not feel.

"You said mirrors and go!"

Domhnall learns to be very explicit with his instructions after that.

The second lesson goes as follows:

"That stopped car is getting awfully close so you're going to want to hit the brake now. Brake. Brake, Alicia. NO, NOT THE CLUTCH! HIT THE BRAKE!"

There is a screech of metal on metal and then:

"Well, that car certainly came out of nowhere, don't you think, Domhnall?"
