Chicago Premiere of Public Enemies!

This was my first red carpet premiere and it was everything I expected it to be. I got pushed and shoved due to my height (man, I wish I was like three inches taller), got a huge gash on my foot from the mad stampede to touch Johnny Depp, and got into an argument with a 12 year old girl about who Michael Mann was. On a sidenote, if you're going to a premiere of a movie, you probably should be able to spot the director and supporting cast members, like Marion Cotillard (I mean for goodness sake, she won an Oscar two years ago!).

Anyway, I was in the perfect spot, probably about the second row from the front, right outside the door. Johnny Depp is the sweetest person ever and came back out after the film started to sign autographs for everyone and talk to the fans. I didn't get an autograph/picture but I did see Johnny Depp make the cutest face as he stumbled on the city curb; he was geniunely embarrassed and extremely adorable.

I also saw Christian Bale, William Peterson (Grissom from CSI), Michael Mann, and a small glimpse of Marion Cotillard. I got some pictures but if I had just been a couple of inches taller, they would have been ten times better.

Plus, the Cubs won! Today was a GREAT day :)
