spirit for the film.
“I think that’s why after a four year wait, I was aware that there was a resilience in the show,” Noth believes, “That you could take four years and there was still this desire and need for the next story, the next stage of these people’s lives. So I think it was a good thing to wait that long.” Chris also shares his optimism that eager fans, as well as newcomers, will absolutely love the film, particularly due to writer King’s involvement as both writer and director. “It gets right on the edge of sophomoric humor, but it never really goes there,” he claims, “It always has a little more of a bite, I feel. There’s always a little more satire, underneath the playing. I think [director/writer] Michael [Patrick King] has an impeccable ear to what’s happening today in our culture, whether it’s in 1998 or now.” “He’s able to take that and put it into the script, but there’s some deeply funny moments,” Chris adds, “He’s always been great and the show’s always been great at showing the foibles of sex, all from humiliation to hypocrisy, in terms of the way society makes decisions about it. I think he loves to poke fun at it in a very healthy way.” The filming of the movie was notorious for being constantly plagued by paparazzi trying to uncover secrets about the film’s plot, particularly a rumor swirling in reaction to one particular scene where it was assumed one of the characters in the film was to die. “Yeah, I mean, everybody thought it kind of was insane,” Noth says, “I never seen it before. They were trying to find out every single kind of nuance and what it meant. That’s why I’d always slip them a mickey. I’d go buy a drink and go, God, I can’t take another funeral. And hour will go by. When she wakes up from that dream, it will really surprise people. It was so much fun.” Another perk of the movie, Noth believes, is the film’s star-studded soundtrack. “I love the soundtrack and I think Jennifer [Hudson] did an amazing song,” he says, “I’m not familiar with Fergie. I’d thought we get a little Dionne Warwick for us, but we didn’t get her. But we have a great soundtrack. I think it will be a good record. I put it in The Cutting Room, on the jukebox.” We also asked Chris whether he ever felt overwhelmed by all the estrogen of a series dominated by so many strong female personalities. “There was a little of that, but it was mostly during the series, after six years,” Chris admits, “Not during the movie, because I was going right back to [Law & Order:] Criminal Intent. Actually, coming from the set of Sex & The City to the sets of Criminal Intent, I got no sympathy from the crew over on Criminal Intent. They’re like, (in snotty voice) ‘Hi, Mr. Big!’ You hear victims, with a hole in his head, ‘Would you ... |
