Author Topic: DAVID DUCHOVNY agreed to ask a fan's girlfriend to marry him Dennis Benjamin Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1445 From: Denton, MD Registered: Feb 2002 posted 04-17-2007 07:16 AM                        THE LINK "X-FILES star DAVID DUCHOVNY agreed to ask a fan's girlfriend to marry him - as long as the fiance-to-be screened his new movie THE TV SET for a year. The actor was attending an industry independent film festival in Las Vegas when a cinema owner approached him with the odd request, handing Duchovny a ring. Duchovny agreed to make the couple's dreams come true - on one condition. He says, "I turned to her and I said, 'I'm not going to ask you to marry him unless you say yes, because I don't want to be involved in that.' "She said, 'Yes,' and now she's starting to hyperventilate and cry... I don't know either of their names yet, so I say, 'Will you marry him.' "Then I said to them, 'Look guys, I'm not in it just for today. When I ask a woman to marry anybody I'm in it for the long haul and I wanna keep on checking up on you guys. "You have to promise me that you will keep The TV Set in your theatre for an entire year or else I will have it all annulled." My question is this: Who was the theatre owner?  |  IP: Logged Mike Heenan Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1896 From: Scottsdale, AZ, USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 04-17-2007 09:58 AM                     David Duchovny is still acting?  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 04-17-2007 10:53 AM                     I'm still trying to figure out why this thread exists....  |  IP: Logged Justin West Master Film Handler Posts: 271 From: Peoria, IL, USA Registered: Jul 2001 posted 04-18-2007 01:42 AM                     I'm hyperventilating!  |  IP: Logged Dennis Benjamin Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1445 From: Denton, MD Registered: Feb 2002 posted 04-18-2007 07:29 AM                        Why this thread exists on Film-Tech: A) because it happened at a film festival B) because some stupid theatre owner is going to have to run a stupid movie on one of his screens for an entire year. C) I thought maybe it was someone on Film-Tech that agreed to something like this.  |  IP: Logged Anslem Rayburn Master Film Handler Posts: 476 From: Yuma, AZ, USA Registered: May 2002 posted 04-18-2007 06:54 PM                     You don't think the "Play my movie for a whole year" line was a joke?  |  IP: Logged
