Pinky's Fandance - Friday Edition

I first met Paul Schneider during my second Festival. He was walking down the street with his director and we talked and I asked him for a picture. He was a really nice guy and I loved his work in All the Real Girls which premiered that year. For those who might not recognize him, he was the brother on Lars and the Real Girl, the ambulance driver boyfriend in The Family Stone, and also starred in The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford.Last year, Paul was back again with his film he directed called Pretty Bird (which was hysterical). I ran into him at the Closing Party and was interested to see if he might remember me from our meeting years ago. Not only did he remember me (!), but he told his wife I was the first person to ever ask for a picture with him. How cool is that?

I love Paul Schneider so much. You are immeasurably lucky to have been the first person to ask for a picture with him! He'll have to get used to many, many more after Parks and Recreation premieres. I can't wait!
