Ed Norton doesn't like to reveal much about his love life, but the
first-time director didn't mind giving bedroom pointers to the cast
of his movie "Keeping the Faith."
Norton came to the rescue when
Bodhi Elfman found his knees
knocking over his raucous love scenes
as a corporate Casanova.
"I've been with my wife for nine years
and haven't touched another hand
since I met her," Elfman told us at
Wednesday's premiere party at Studio
450 as he held onto the waist of his
now-red-haired wife, Jenna, who
stars in the romantic comedy with Norton and Ben Stiller. "I was
nervous; Edward had to talk me through it," he said.
Neither was Norton shy about barking directions at his knockout
girlfriend, Salma Hayek, when the two posed for pictures on the
red carpet. Norton, who seemed less than eager to pose with
Hayek, was overheard warning her that the pictures might come
back to haunt them should they split "five months from now."
While Hayek would only say that she's "proud" of her boyfriend,
Stiller's fiance, "Wedding Singer" star Christine Taylor, told us
all about their plans to wed in the next month or two.
"We're getting married at Yankee Stadium with 20,000 other
couples," she joked. "It's an arranged marriage. This is actually our
first meeting."
The only actor in the film who didn't have such a great time
Wednesday was Radio Man, the New York autograph hound,
who couldn't get into the premiere or the party. "That's okay," said
the scraggly imp, who got compliments from Michael Eisner and
Dustin Hoffman for his two lines. "I'm in Adam Sandler's movie
'Little Nicky.' He'll get me into the premiere."
