| Annan Agrees to Kidman Film at United Nations |
| 2004-01-30 |
| The United Nations said on Thursday that a movie starring Nicole Kidman and Sean Penn would be made at U.N. headquarters in New York, where Hollywood has failed for decades to get permission to film. Sean Penn will feel right at home. The movie, to be directed by Sydney Pollack, is called "The Interpreter." Kidman would play a Kenyan-born U.N. translator who overhears an assassination plot, becomes a target herself and helps stop the killing of an African leader addressing the U.N. General Assembly. Ok, stupid plot, but does she take her clothes off? Shashi Tharoor, the U.N. undersecretary-general for public affairs, said it was the first time in recent memory the world body, including Secretary-General Kofi Annan and the presidents of the Security Council and the General Assembly, had allowed a feature film to be made in the building. Chilean Ambassador Herald Munoz, this month’s Security Council president, told Reuters earlier in the week the only query he received was from his Spanish colleague, Inocencio Arias, who wondered how one became an extra. And how is this related to the WOT? As long as she’s filming there, they’ll be too busy drooling over her to pass any stupid resolutions. |

| #5 ...I'm sure whatever nudity is there will be very tasteful and entirely necessary to the conspiracy. Mike |
