Michelle Pfeiffer, Kathy Bates shine at Cheri premiere

The stars shone brightly at the screening of “Cheri” at the DGA Theater in New York City this week. Directed by Stephen Frears, the romantic drama is set in 1920s Paris and follows the son of a courtesan who escapes into a fantasy world after being forced to end a relationship with an older woman.

Frears has several British films to his directorial credits, including “The Queen” and “Mrs. Henderson Presents,” not to mention “The Grifters,” “Mary Reilly,” and “High Fidelity,” to name a few. And you couldn’t get a better cast, including Michelle Pfeiffer, Kathy Bates, and Rupert Friend. The movie opens in limited release June 26, 2009. Looking forward to seeing it.
