I'm sorry Lele you weren't able to go there 
How do you know they were together? Did you see her on one of the pics? 
EII received a 20 minute ovation!! 
The Hollywood Reporter
By Anne Thompson
TELLURIDE, Colorado --
Liev Schreiber, the New York theater and film actor, searched for his
roots while filming his directorial debut, "Everything Is Illuminated"
in contemporary Odessa and the countryside outside of Prague. His
adaptation of Jonathan Safran Foer's 2001 novel stars Elijah Wood as a
young man trying to find his grandfather's Ukrainian village. Former
Soviet screen star Boris Leskin and Ukrainian-born New York musician
Eugene Hutz play his tour guides. "They both learned Ukrainian for the
part," Schreiber said. "That's more than you could ask."
Raised in the Eastern European film tradition by his family, Schreiber
brings the absurdist humor and rhythms of the films of Milos Forman,
Dusan Makavejev and Emir Kusturica to the movie. Speaking by the phone
from the Venice International Film Festival where the film received a
20-minute ovation, Schreiber said, "I had wanted so much to make this
a European film. Jonathan and I compared stories of our grandfathers.
I wanted to show their survivors' sense of humor: If you believe your
life is excrement then you either drown in it or transcend it with
irony. That's a distinct Eastern European trait."

Oh, your friend was very lucky. It's great that Pam agreed to give the letter to Lij, that's really kind of her.

Thats wonderful - when I saw the trailer I knew that this would be a great movie.
When the audience loves this movie, there is a big chance that it will get a worldwide release...

Me neither (esp. not for a film)! It's amazing! Liev, Lij and Eugene must have felt like they were on top of the world. 
Check out http://www.livejournal.com/users/undone27/922451.html?nc=37 for some Venice Goodies.

Aww, thank you Angel!! You're pretty awesome yourself!
Enara, an Elijah World Tour sounds brilliant to me, we all know he needs to rest throughout his tour, so he can stay at my place while he's in Germany!! I know I'm so kind!!
Lele, it would be great to see the picture.
You're very welcome Leti.

Well, he can leave ample time between visits to each country, and I'm sure he won't be at a loss for sleeping arrangements *cough*
