News about Neil Simon

BRIAN VINER: If I compiled my list again today, I still wouldn't have space for The Italian Job, Forrest Gump, The Great Escape, or Titanic, which all of which encouraged readers to write in. By the way, that doesn't mean I don't like or even love those photos (although not Titanic), which makes me wish the iceberg would strike a bit sooner). Here is a list of the Top 20 movies you should have included in my Top 100 list, as well as your reasons for... The Shawshank Redemption (left), Mary Poppins (right), and Saving Private Ryan (inset).

In a north London boozer this week, Hollywood actress Sarah Jessica Parker and her partner Matthew Broderick went bsmacked after enjoying pints. Locals at The Gate House in Highgate, where Liam Gallagher is also a regular, were stunned to see the Sex and The City Star, 58, and her actor partner, 61, making several visits. The two actors are in London for their latest performance, Plaza Suite, a West End revival of Neil Simon's play of the same name that debuted at Broadway in 1968.

Following Sarah Parker's debut on Sunday night, the show's debut was met with a slew of scathing two star reviews. In the aftermath of a controversy over the obscenely priced tickets, the Plaza Suite, where the SATC actor performs alongside her real life partner Matthew Broderick, was unveiled at the Savoy Theatre in front of a slew of celebrities. Neil Simon's triptych of sketches, which the couple performed on Broadway previously, is directed by John Benjamin Hickey and helmed by the superstar couple, aged 58 and 61 respectively.

You want showbiz?You want celebrity?You want reassuringly expensive A-lister stardust? Here it comes in the form of Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick, who co-started Neil Simon's Sixties comedy about marriages in a New York hotel room. I wondered if the real-life Parker-Broderick married couple, who are best known on film for Sex And The City and Ferris Bueller's Day Off (among others), would be too heavy for the roar of the grease paint and the stench of a crowd. And, please do not mis misinterprete Simon's play is a tumultuous tale, requiring the pair to play a trio of different comic parts and keep an audience bouncing for two hours and 40 minutes straight.

Following Sarah Jessica Parker's latest appearance at the Savoy Theatre in London's West End, her husband Matthew Broderick played fan friendly actors. The pair, who have been together since 1991 and have now been married for more than 26 years, just wrapped up the performance on Friday night as fans welcomed them outside. The bulk of the participants had freebies from Neil Simon's classic comedy and markers in hand, in the hopes of persuading them to sign their autographs. As she stepped out ahead of her husband and led to the first fan holding the show, she gave her a big, proud smile. The Sex And The City actress, 58, kept it casually cool in the fashion department's blue jeans tucked into her black calf-high boots, a heavy black hooded jacket, and a gray beanie cap over her long blonde locks.

Fans of a certain iconic sitcom star's latest Instagram posts have been suspicious of potential plastic surgery that has left the actress's name unrecognizable.' The 86-year-old actress was born in Detroit, Michigan, to her Lebanese-American father and Sicilian-American mother. She enrolled in Beverly Hills, California, and attended Marymount High School before graduating from the University of Southern California with a teaching degree. In 1960, she started working in television productions, before finding her big break in the London production of Neil Simon's Barefoot in the Park five years later. After snagging the lead role in ABC's hit 1960s sitcom That Girl, the now-unrecognizable star was once a household celebrity.

Sarah Jessica Parker, a two-time Emmy winner, battled the noxious wildfire smoke from Canada plaguing the entire state of New York, to tape an appearance on Good Morning America at Times Square Studios in Manhattan on Thursday. The 58-year-old former child actor stepped out in cute hot-pink chrome pumps that didn't appear to be from her SJP Collection.

Woody came to fame after being thrust into the spotlight due to his work in Cheers, he went out of his way to become a wild partyer and rampant womanizer. Hollywood's newest golden boy soared on his fame, and would tell three different women a day and vowed never to be tied down by marriage. But it all changed when he met Laura Louie, his future-mother, who went on to save the actor from the spiral of debauchery and corruption that he suffered on, and also turned the self-proclaimed 'party animal' into a devoted family man. Laura Woody, who died in 1987 as part of a school workshop, met Laura, now 58, when she was a college student visiting the Cheers set. He nabbed her as his assistant and the pair fell in love three years later. On first glance, it seemed as though he had stopped writing about his late-night revelry and one-night stands, but the Hunger Games alum confessed to having a heroine in 2002 that nearly broke him and Laura apart. Fortunately, she rescued him and the film star has now transitioned from an opioid, sex, and alcohol addict to a loving husband and father in recent years, choosing a much quieter life in Hawaii after he and his family became passionate about sustainable living. Despite Woody's turbulent past and infidelities, he and Laura have certainly stood the test of time, and after being together for more than three decades, FEMAIL recapped their entire relationship from start to finish.
