Then to say that his wife is a lucky woman, it's like trying to make up for the fact that they wish he weren't married so they could have him for themselves. I for one am very happy he's married. It gives him a secure, stable private life and grounds him so that he can be the best actor he can be.

Ms Duff, an accomplished stage and television actress, has been taking music lessons to prepare her for the role. Looking the part in a grey 1950s-style dress, she said: "I'm learning to play the banjo and I love it. "It's much more difficult than I expected but it's always great to have something external that connects you with a character."

Then to say that his wife is a lucky woman, it's like trying to make up for the fact that they wish he weren't married so they could have him for themselves. I would guess it's mostly young, idealistic girls/women who say that. And it's probably not because they think they have a chance with him but because it sort of ruins the part of the "fantasy" in knowing that he's not available even in a what-if situation.

The Weinstein Company Finds Nowhere Boy Source: The Weinstein Company March 16, 2009 The Weinstein Company (TWC) has acquired from HanWay Films all US, Latin America and German rights to Ecosse Films' Nowhere Boy, the John Lennon coming of age story directed by Sam Taylor-Wood, starring Aaron Johnson, Kristin Scott Thomas, Thomas Sangster, David Morrissey and Anne-Marie Duff. The announcement was made today by David Glasser, TWC's president of international distribution, Tom Ortenberg, TWC's president of theatrical films and Tim Haslam, CEO of HanWay Films. Nowhere Boy tells the never before seen story of John Lennon's (Johnson) childhood. John Lennon is an ordinary fifteen year old boy on the streets of Liverpool. Funny, smart, naughty, a real edge to him. But life is not simple for John - he grew up in a family of secrets and was raised by his Aunt Mimi from the age of five. When he is suddenly reacquainted with his mother, Julia, they form an unbreakable bond. A bitter war rages between the two sisters for John's love. Faced with bringing it to an end, he learns the secret heartbreak of his past. But his mother gives him one great gift - music. A wayward boy finds his voice, and walks into The Beatles. "The story of John Lennon's childhood has never been told, and now Beatles' fans will be able to gain insight into his fascinating life," said Ortenberg. "Matt [Greenhalgh] wrote an amazing script and Sam has brought together an incredibly talented cast. We're thrilled to be working with Ecosse and Film4 the latter straight off of their success of 'Slumdog Millionaire' and all of the other accomplished producers on board." "Reading the last page of the screenplay, I knew this was a film I had to make," said Taylor-Wood. "We've brought together a really dynamic cast and made a phenomenal start. I'm very excited." "We are very pleased to be working with the Weinstein Company on Sam Taylor-Wood's exciting debut," said Robert Bernstein, who is producing the film for Ecosse Films. Principal photography started on March 8th on location in Liverpool and at Ealing Studios. TWC plans for a year-end release.

It looks like they are going to turn this around really fast to get it out in time for Oscars qualification. This and Last Station could make this AM's break through year in the US market.
