she arranged for a special food truck to be on set for the overnight shoot for the cast and crew. It served coffee, milk, and cookies all night and she picked up the tab
damn I knew Jennifer Anniston was rich, but not that rich. That must have been, like, a hundred dollars or something!
Not that it matters because she's not obligated to spend $1 much less $100 on them, but I bet that cost her closer to 2 grand.
That's a lot of milk and cookies!
$2 grand to her is probably like 5 cents to me.

I'm sure the bulk of the bill was having a staffed food truck park on their lot for several hours overnight.

Pretty sure it's the thought that counts.

Hi - first TexAgs post, but my husband sent me this thread, and I have to ask for more detail about meeting Dolly Parton! I've always been a huge fan of hers and would love to hear more about how she was in person.

And I echo everyone's congratulations to your wife - I'm looking forward to seeing the movie!

I'm amazed at the people who think it's not a nice gesture unless it puts the person doing it in bankruptcy.

Come on, to take the time and trouble to do something nice, is a nice gesture, whether it costs you a dime or a million bucks.

Is there a trailer for the movie? I'm looking around on YouTube and not seeing anything.

It was probably one of those situations where the caterer brought the bill, looking for someone to hand it to, and all of a sudden everyone looked down at their phone as if not to see it, then the caterer saw JA and was like 'are you taking care of this', and JA was like 'oh alright give it here' in her rachel green voice.

Netflix typically doesn't release trailers for their movies more than a month or so from release. Their big-release movies that also get a theatrical release see earlier trailer releases, but by and large some of their trailers sometimes don't even hit until the week of the movie's release. Theatrical movies need a longer marketing window because those movies basically have one shot at making the bulk of their gross. But Netflix movies will theoretically live on Netflix forever, in only one form, so the idea is to make more of a splash closer to the movie's release.

That was such a cool experience.

We flew out to LA to do a little promo work for the movie and soundtrack with Dolly. The studio we were at was actually a house in a neighborhood that had been converted. You could record in nearly every room except the kitchen which had soundproof glass separating it from the living room. They wanted to film the meeting so they had Julie wait in kitchen and then walk in to meet her. As she walked in they closed the glass door behind her and I was just standing in the kitchen taking some pics trying to stay out of the way. A sony record exec sees me and invites me into the room. I whisper that im going to stay to the side and just take a few pics. He tries to urge me into the room and I resisted, I really didn't want to steal the spot light. After a back and forth whisper argument, he finally grabs my arm and yells, "Hey Dolly, this is the husband! He's a huge fan!"

(At this point I should explain that yes, I am indeed a huge Dolly fan. I grew up listening to Dolly and my parents took me to Dollywood the year it opened.)

So Dolly looks over tells me, "Well get on over here too!" So obviously I listened. She was so nice and genuine. We had a little small talk photos, etc. and that was it. My wife and I spent most of the day just hanging out while she and Dolly did some interviews and hear some of the soundtrack. We also got to meet Linda Perry since she was producing the soundtrack and she was really freaking cool. We also randomly got to meet Sara Gilbert very briefly which was also very cool.

Just keep your wife away from Ben Affleck...ha.

Or Jennifer Aniston, apparently.

Not to derail anything, but what's the story here?!?

Someone pointed out earlier that op's wife has a wiki page, and on the page it discusses sexual orientation.

I'll let you sherlock holmes your way through the rest.

Pretty sure this question was in regards to Jennifer Aniston not the author.
