Thanks to a friend with connections, I was invited as a guest to a special screening of Chris Columbus's Rent last night at Skywalker Ranch. I'm embargoed from saying much about it, but I wanted to take a moment to sing the praises of Rosario Dawson (25th Hour, Sin City) who plays the drug-addled stripper Mimi. Dawson was not in the stage version, but she absolutely nails her song, "Out Tonight," which features a kind of howling chorus: "Let's go OW-OOOOO-T tonight!" I think she's good enough to nab an Oscar nomination. How's that for buzz?
