Can I, she asks, grabbing the booze.
Watch on Deadline
By now she had a haul of five or six bottles.
One of them fell to the ground, so she swiped a replacement.
(L-R) Greta Gerwig, Margot Robbie, Robert De Niro and Ryan GoslingGetty
Stirred the former crime reporter in me.
Who was Mohawk Lady?
Shes an online critic, someone at another table tells me.
Harrison Ford and Ryan GoslingBaz Bamigboye/Deadline
Later on I ask her directly but she mumbles, unsurprisingly, something incomprehensible.
It was just, well, the audaciousness of it all.
We are all worthy of having of having our lives richly and authentically reflective.
Mohawk lady was being seen alright, with swag.
Also, the occasion.
The hangar was heaving with A-listers and Mohawk ladys behavior seemed a little incongruous.
Nor had a drop been consumed by Robbies fellow guests Greta Gerwig or Ken.
Um, I meanRyan Gosling.
Loved the moment Harrison Ford was trying to get his attention.
Hey Ryan, I tell him, Harrison wants to speak to you.
Im not your real son, you know, Gosling shouts out to the screen legend.
They worked together on Denis VilleneuvesBlade Runner 2049back in 2017.
Fans of the movie will know what Goslings comment was referring to.
Gosling races over and the two men embrace.
Its a lovely, touching moment.
It wasMistress,she tells him, directed by Barry Primus.
De Niro was gracious.
He rose from his seat and embraced the actress.
I love it when I see these moments in time.
Seeing Ralph prompted a fond memory for me as well.
I caught the original Broadway production ofDreamgirlswhen it played the Imperial Theater on 45th Street.
Also, I met the woman who would, a few years later, become my wife.
So,Dreamgirlshas always been pretty special to me.
I walked over to say hello to Archie Madekwe, who was at theSaltburntable with Emerald Fennell.
Good to see that Madekwe continues to do well.
He has the starring role in the filmLurkerthats about to shoot out here in Los Angeles.
Saltburnhasnt been picking up awards yet, but it has gained traction for the outrageousness of its marketing.
We fought for it, Fennell tells me of the ad.
Oh, the wonderful world of Hollyweird!
It makes me happy to see thespians once championed right at the start of their careers doing well.
Yes, Madekwes a case in point; also Gosling, whos just huge and GerwigsBarbieis a classic now.
Margot Robbie and I have never properly met, which is odd, but these things happen.
But now shes front and center leading the revolution to upend how the movie business is controlled.
Jeffrey Wright, fellow Arsenal supporter, and sublime artist.
Well, I knew him way back before he could say boo to a goose.
Now hes an Oscar contender for Cord Jeffersons scorchingAmerican Fiction.
Colman Domingo he has such swagger and style and hes brilliant inRustin.
And Domingos being celebrated for his powerful portrait of Bayard Rustin in the Netflix film.
Saw her inThe Color Purpleon Broadway and now shes literally kicking doors down in Blitz Bazawules movie version.
Same withThe HoldoversDaVine Joy Randolph, though Ill explain more about that in another column.
Spotted Emily Blunt in a play she did with Dame Judi Dench called theRoyal Familyin the West End.
A light goes off in ones head and you think: gotta keep an eye out for her!
And I cant get enough of her in Christopher NolansOppenheimer.
Which brings me to Carey Mulligan.
What she does in Bradley Coopers splendidMaestrois simply extraordinary, such beautiful acting.
And to my mind, Mohawk lady disrespects them.
Security shoulda thrown her out.
Let her keep the bloody tequila but dont invite her back next year.
I have photos of her, butBreaking Bazis not going to shame her further by running them.
So, Im not so sure theCritics Choice Awardsbeat the Golden Globes.
Both awards shows need to up their game before going around bragging about whos got the biggest cojones.
