So I was wasting my summer day this morning, watching "You've Got Mail" and my eyes about bugged out of my head when Sara Ramirez popped up on the screen! For those of you who have seen the movie a long time ago but are not totally familiar with it, she plays the cash register attendant in the grocery store in the scene where Meg Ryan is in the cash-only line but doesn't have enough cash to pay (so Tom Hanks sweet-talks Sara Ramirez into using the credit card.) She looks totally different and is speaking with an accent... they obviously put a lot of work into her hair and makeup so that she looks tired and not at all glamorous. Anyway, I just wanted to share. Also, I was curious about other instances where current Broadway stars might have popped up as bit parts in mainstream movies. If you have any examples, feel free to share!

I know it's credited on imdb, but I don't have her personal biography memorized, so when I watched the movie, I was surprised to see it! And I was pretty excited about it too! So I don't really see what you were getting at, CycoSpaz2.

Denis O'hare is in Derailed, it was a nice suprise when I watched it...


So I was sitting in my cubicle today, and I realized, ever since I started working, every single day of my life has been worse than the day before it. So that means that every single day that you see me, that's on the worst day of my life.~Office Space

when you say she speaks with an accent, is it a Mexican accent?

:P

Yeah, she has some sort of accent resembling mexican. She's actually quiet funny just in her expressions. Love that movie!

WELL duh......

and calling Zabar's a grocery store is like calling Nieman Marcus a 7-11

but I have never heard of Zabar's except for it in the movie.

You must remember all the same that at the crux of every game is knowing when it's time to leave the table... And it's important to be artful in your exit. No turning back, you must accept the con is done... It was a ball, it was a blast. And it's a shame it couldn't last. But every chapter has to end, you must agree.
