Actors Kristin Chenoweth and Jeremy Sisto showed up for Sunday mass at Incarnation Catholic Church, according to Leslee Aune.
"My family's big 'Law & Order' fans and recognized Sisto right away," Aune said via e-mail. "I didn't go over and say anything, as I didn't want to bother them during mass, but it was really cool to see them there. Perhaps they were doing some research for a new film."
Apparently. A church lady who answered the phone Monday could not confirm that the actors were at mass Sunday, but she did report that they are shooting "Into Temptation" at the church.
"Into Temptation" and "Nobody" are two movies currently in production here. The cast of "Nobody" was shooting late into Friday night at Theodore Wirth Park.
My new source Like a true Democrat, Joan Mondale arrived at the airport via light rail, although she clearly has the means to take a limo.
We had a charming encounter after she got THOROUGHLY screened by a security staffer. When I approached her to remark on how she'd really gotten the once-over, she softly said, "I have a pacemaker," sounding resigned to the security treatment.
As we walked down the concourse, she inquired about my destination. I told her I was flying to Montgomery to surprise my mother for Mother's Day. She wanted to know whether my parents had been involved in the civil rights movement. More polite chatter ensued, and then she made this inquiry: "So what do you do in the Twin Cities?"
Uh-oh. It has been years since we've seen each other; I wasn't positive she was who I thought she was, either. I had been hoping that question wouldn't come up. I identified myself as C.J. from the Star Tribune; I put it all out there by adding I was aware that some Mondales don't like me. (Let's just say I had too much fun covering the very diverting Eleanor Mondale, especially when she was WCCO-TV's entertainment reporter.)
