New York - What's a perfect movie for a convicted felon to make? In Winona Ryder's case, it is to do a bit of atonement in "The Ten," David Wain's new comedy based on the Bible's Ten Commandments. But ironically, as partygoers to the film's premiere at New York City's DGA Theater discovered on Monday night, in her vignette (there are ten different short stories in the movie) Ryder plays a woman obsessed with a ventriloquist's dummy; so obsessed, in fact, that she steals it!
Ryder, who wore a long white coat to the film's premiere, recently told "Vogue" magazine that she doesn't actually feel too badly about her infamous arrest at Saks Fifth Avenue back in 2001, saying, "I didn't have this tremendous sense of guilt because I hadn't hurt anyone."
Except herself, of course. The 35-year-old star has struggled to resurrect her A-list career ever since, so she's hoping that Sundance favorite "The Ten" hits big with fans of outrageous comedy. She's in good comedic company, at least, especially with co-star (and producer) Paul Rudd. He made the party scene too, lending his high-wattage comic presence to the glittery scene. Rudd is riding on quite a high, with hits "The 40-Year-Old Virgin" and "Knocked Up" proving he's the go-to comedy guy at the moment.
Gorgeous Famke Janssen also stars in "The Ten," as Rudd's hot wife; she looked fantastic as always at the premiere, and towered over Ryder and pretty (and very pregnant) actress Gretchen Mol, who plays a shy librarian in the film, who experiences a sexual awakening while on vacation in Mexico.
Also on hand from the film (which opens in limited release on August 3) at the screening and Avalon after party were Bobby Cannavale, Ken Marino, and Kerri Kenney, along with pals Janeane Garofalo, Rashida Jones, and "Law and Order: SVU" hunk Christopher Meloni.
