Parties, private screenings, Q&As and the first movie awards show of the season all in the span of 24 hours. It all proves we’re in full swing with just four months to go before the Oscars.
Eckhart made a beeline for the exit following his presentation [at the Hollywood Awards Gala on Monday 25th] to head over to the Landmark Theatre in West L.A. where he joined Rabbit Hole co-star Nicole Kidman for a Q&A in front of the SAG nominating committee. As one of the film’s producers, Kidman also participated in another Q&A there for the PGA a half hour earlier. The December 17 awards contender played well for both groups who packed the theatres even on a slow Monday. Kidman, a first time producer, revealed that she trimmed the budget by nixing trailers for the cast. Instead everyone lived in the same house where they shot the film. Kidman and Eckhart even shared a bathroom until he decided enough was enough and moved downstairs for the remainder of the New York shoot.
