Private Ryan
A Cinema Society Screening of Phillippe's New War Drama

Socialites aren't a common sight on that swath of lower Sixth Avenue that's occupied by tattoo parlors, sex shops, and fast-food joints. But on Thursday night, that's exactly where well-heeled cinephiles like Irina Pantaeva, Kimberly Guilfoyle, and Tatum O'Neal could be found. The occasion? A Cinema Society screening at the IFC Center of the new military drama Stop-Loss, which stars Ryan Phillippe as an Iraq war hero ordered back to duty against his will. The soft-spoken actor arrived in a Dolce & Gabbana suit—a natty counterpoint to the army fatigues he dons for most of the movie. "It's transformative," he said of the months he spent filming in uniform. "The outfit and the gear are designed to make you look and feel imposing, like a killing machine." Following the screening, guests made their way to more familiar terrain, the Gramercy Park Hotel rooftop, for cocktails and a dinner buffet courtesy of GQ.
