Director Garry Marshall Talks About “New Year’s Eve”

Garry Marshall is always fun to talk to! I sat down with the director last year for “Valentine’s Day” and in 2005 for “Chicken Little.” This time, he returns with another star-studded extravaganza with “New Year’s Eve.” I love Halle Berry in the film, and did you know that the actress almost didn’t make the film?

In this interview, we talked about:

*** What made him interested in making “New Year’s Eve?” They shot all the New Year’s Eve shenanigans in Times Square last year
*** The unpredictable twists and turns! Marshall taught me a new word – portmanteau, which means intersecting stories
*** All he wants is to make you feel good, leave on a positive note, awwwww
*** It’s all about love in Marshall’s world
*** I love Halle Berry!

Have Fun!
