As I mentioned way back when, Dave White sound-a-like Paul Giamatti is in town to shoot the next M. Night Shyamalan flick, Lady in the Water. But I was stunned to learn that Giamatti has been hanging out at one of my favorite haunts. As reported by Michael Klein in yesterday's Philadelphia Inquirer:Paul Giamatti (Sideways, American Splendor) is a fan of thrillers and science fiction. In town shooting Lady in the Water, he's been spending hours at a time amid the racks at the Whodunit bookstore. Clue: It's on Chestnut Street, near 20th.
Yes! That's my Whodunit! Where I first suckled at the teat of hardboiled crime fiction! Oh, what I would give to hear a conversation between Whodunit co-owner Art Bourgeau and Giamatti... (Of course, I could simulate such an experience by bringing Dave White into the shop someday.)
I wonder what he bought?
