After hearing the news about the Simply Halston film, I sent an email to friend (and director) Daniel Minahan. Dan confirmed that Brendan Fraser is his man AND that Zooey Deschanel is his Liza. Speaking of Liza (with a Z), Dan emailed about going to the premiere in NY. As he was exiting the theatre, Liza came up to him and tapped him on the back. He writes, “I turned around and thought this is it, we’re going to be friends, and she said, ‘Hon, I gotta get to the bathroom, excuse me.'”
