The
red carpet was short but star-packed Monday night at the
"retro premiere" of the movie "9
to 5" to benefit the Georgia Campaign for
Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention. GCAPP founder Jane Fonda,
dressed in a tight metallic gray leather ensemble, arrived
arm in arm with her "9 to 5" co-stars, Dolly
Parton, Lily Tomlin and Dabney Coleman, outside the Woodruff
Arts Center in Midtown.
When
Buzz asked the quartet which scene from the 1980 comedy
they most enjoyed filming, Parton, dressed in a short
sequined dress with fringe, immediately shot back, "We
loved tying Dabney up. He actually wanted us to do it
again."
"I
still have nightmares,' cracked Coleman.
So
why the "retro premiere" concept? Said Fonda:
"One day, six months ago, I was sitting on the toilet
and I realized there was no movie coming out of Hollywood
more fun than this one."
Hundreds
turned out for the $150-a-ticket event. Fonda's escort,
ex-hubby Ted Turner, shied away from the media glare of
the red carpet but later danced with his date as a funk
band played the film's theme song.
Pictures
In this hilarious farce, three of Hollywood's favorite
female stars, Jane, Lilly Tomlin and Dolly Parton - like
every secretary's dream as they turn the tables on their
boss and turn their male controlled workplace into a model
office. At
consolidated, the office manager (Lilly), the vice president's
secretary (Parton) and the newest employee (Jane) become
the greatest friends and share their resentment about
their egotistical, sexist boss. When they inadvertently
get a chance to take revenge, they institute a host of
popular office procedures in his absence - even as their
scheme spins wildly out of control
