Kelly Gingery, founder of the flick-tastic blog, Movie Lovers Only, asks the A-list actor for a favor
Hi Tom, may I have a brief word with you?First off, let me say that I'm so impressed you have again decided to help out the Catholic Church by saving the Angels & chasing the Demons….or whatever it is they have you running around doing at the Vatican these days (Oh, and you have your old hair back -- good call). Yes, you are truly an all-around good guy. In fact, it is because of that goodness that I am writing to you today. You see, I have a dear friend who is in trouble….and I truly believe that you are the only man who can help her out.
Actually, she is a mutual friend. A great gal that we both know and love, who lately has started to slip away. She used to make funny, charming films and was known as "America's Sweetheart." Now her lovely, smiling face is rarely seen on the silver screen. And when it is, at times I hardly recognize her.
That gal, is Meg Ryan.
I really miss our Meg, and I'm sure you do too. Remember, this is the gal who had you whipped up in a love-sick frenzy and racing from Seattle to the top of the Empire State Building -- well, your runaway phone-stalking little kid also had something to do with that. And don't forget, she's also the gal with whom you had a sweet, anonymous email relationship with, that ultimately turned into true love. So what if you were a little deceitful and eventually forced her beloved book shop out of business, that's beside the point.
The bottom line Tom, is this: If you're finally done with all the religious fervor and frenetic globe-trotting, I need your help. Please head back to Hollywood, find our gal Meg and make us all a big, sweet, happy movie. And while you're at it, make sure Meg reads a stack of scripts pre-selected by your team -- since whoever has been choosing hers lately could obviously use a little break.
Please Tom, write back soon and let me know if you'll be able to undertake this very important mission. If you can't, I suppose I'll just have to resort to Plan B.
