On our own: Ben Affleck and Raquel Castro
starstarstarstar
Kevin Smith's sweet, often charming and sometimes funny film about a single father raising his young daughter opened amid speculation about GIGLI/Ben Affleck-Jennifer Lopez backlash, the absence of Smith's trademark stoners, Jay and Silent Bob, and other matters that had nothing to do with the film itself. Workaholic music publicist Ollie Trinke (Affleck) seems to have it all at the age of 27, including a gorgeous and understanding wife, Gertrude (Jennifer Lopez), and a high-... read more
  • Kevin Smith Dishes Bennifer | TV Guide Interviews & Features | 9/2/2004
    With movies like Clerks, Chasing Amy and Dogma in his filmography, no one ever accused Kevin Smith of being warm and fuzzy. But with the release of Jersey Girl, the sardonic director showed he does have a soft and romantic side. With Girl arriving on DVD Sept. 14, Smith sat down with TV Guide Online to riff about his critics, Bennifer and that buzz surrounding The Green Hornet. TV Guide Online: Jersey Girl is a different kind of picture for you.Kevin Smith: I'd recently become a father when I .. read more
  • Meet J.Lo's ''Daughter'' | TV Guide Interviews & Features | 3/22/2004
    While most 9-year-olds just watch movies and TV shows, pint-sized Long Islander Raquel Castro works in them. After smaller gigs in Sesame Street and Third Watch, she got her big break playing the offspring of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez in Jersey Girl (opening Friday). Thanks to her Bennifer connection, the energetic kid has begun fantasizing about life as a celebrity. "I'm hoping that, after this movie, people will realize who I am," she giddily says, "because I like signing autographs. ... read more
  • Silent Bob Speaks Out! | TV Guide Interviews & Features | 3/18/2004
    Filmmaker Kevin Smith is no stranger to religious scandal. His 1999 film Dogma ? featuring two fallen angels and a happy-go-lucky Jesus ? had the entire Catholic League up in arms. But unlike Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ, which spun a little controversy into record-breaking box-office returns, Dogma barely caused a blip ? and Smith has a theory why. "I wish we put a bloody Christ in our movie instead of the Buddy Christ," he jokes to TV Guide Online. "We would have cleaned up, ... read more
  • Liv and Ben Reunited! | TV Guide Interviews & Features | 3/17/2004
    Off-screen, Lord of the Rings' elfin enchantress, Liv Tyler, is deliriously happy with her hubby of nearly a year, Spacehog front man Royston Langdon. But in her reel life, her heart belongs to Armageddon leading man Ben Affleck, whom she reunites with in Kevin Smith's romantic comedy Jersey Girl (opening March 26). "Out of all the actors I've ever worked with, I feel particularly comfortable with Ben," Tyler tells TV Guide Online. "We have some sort of special chemistry. I don't even know ... read more
  • Ben Affleck Slams Media | TV Guide Interviews & Features | 3/10/2004
    Life in the spotlight isn't easy for Ben Affleck, who vents his frustration with the press in Jersey Girl (opening March 26). He plays a music-industry publicity flack frustrated by balancing fatherhood with work who breaks down during a press conference, telling off a room full of music reporters. Firing back at the press felt cathartic for the 31-year-old Oscar winner, whose breakup with J.Lo has sold lots of tabloid rags this year. "It wasn't too tough to film," Affleck laughs. "When we ... read more
