cinema society on the sly

Sure, he often finds himself with the exclusive preview (and red-carpet) rights to some of the most anticipated films coming out of Hollywood, but if Andrew Saffir has found that his guest-list regulars have been acting particularly nice lately, we might have figured out why. Word on the screening circuit is that, because of his friendly relationship with a certain Sarah Jessica Parker, many think that Saffir’s Cinema Society will be on the inside track to host the upcoming “Sex and the City” brouhaha next
month. Indeed, more than one socialite/actress/designer/local fashion celebrity—most of whom are on Saffir’s speed dial—are in hot pursuit of a SATC invitation from him. (And some of them are now revealing that during production they were offered cameos in the film: One actress accepted her part as an extra in a fashion show, while a socialite declined an offer to be featured in a “bathroom” scene for fear of what that vague description could lead to.) “I’ve seen SJP at three of his past events,” one
guest told us. “So if that screening is up for grabs, I’m sure it’ll go to Andrew.” We’ll just have to wait and see.
