Heather Graham Will Star in 'Buy, Borrow or Steal,' Irish Press Says
Filed under: Comedy, Romance, Casting
Heather Graham, whose just-released flick Gray Matters was called "the worst thing to hit Manhattan since 9/11" by Cinematical's own Ryan Stewart (guess he didn't like it) is expected to fly into Belfast today to start filming what one hopes is a more successful romantic comedy: Buy, Borrow or Steal. The movie tells the story of a woman who finds out she will have an early menopause (laughing yet?) and therefore only has two weeks to conceive a child. Her boyfriend doesn't want to have a baby, so she begins searching for a man to put a bun in her oven. (Consider my hand raised!) I'm going to go out on a limb here and say hijinks ensue -- menopause-related hijinks.
There's no details available on imdb yet, but the script was written by Irish screenwriter Camilla Leslie, an in-house writer and producer at Blue Shutter Films, a production company based at Castle Leslie in Ireland. According to Blue Shutter's site, the film will be directed by Eric Styles, and co-star the lovely Mia Kirshner. Apparently, Miss Graham is of Irish descent, but here's hoping Rollergirl doesn't attempt an accent. I'm still dealing with Cameron Diaz's Lucky Charms-inspired attempt in Gangs of New York. Cam, wasn't there enough butchering going on in that movie? Hiyo!

Ok, first, Heather Graham is hot. I mean superwoman, lightning bolt to the groin, eyes popping out of head, and tounge on floor hot. However, I will still not see this movie. Or any other movie starring Heather except for Boogienights, Austin Powers, and that "American Woman" Kravitz music video. Good post.

Oh the possibilities ... maybe they'll have a literal biological clock in the corner of the screen, 24 style. Man, this premise sounds very lame. But this was a funny post.

Heather Graham is definitely hot. Gray Matters was painful. I mean, PAINFUL. However, in it Heather makes out with Tom Brady's baby's momma, Bridget Moynahan. Not a bad image.

Like Heather, intrigued by the premise. Kind of like 'Bridget Jones's Last Stand'!

Horrible movie on spec alone!
Does she not have an agent or manager that actually reads these scripts? Because we all know she must be illiterate...
