"Nobody Knows Anything"

The Coronet Theatre, 366 N. La Cienega, gets a preview of a new film at the end of William Tannen's "Nobody Knows Anything" (Echelon Studios, 2003). Here we're looking across the bar at the end of the theatre's lobby. 
 
The title, of course, comes from William Goldman in his book "Adventures in the Screen Trade." Here it's a not-funny comedy with Ulanna Ubach playing a young lady who thinks making a movie will be easy. It has the feel of a very well-financed vanity project. The film features a terrific supporting cast including Margaret Cho, Stephen Colbert, Mike Connors, Paul Dooley, Janeane Garofalo, Ed Lauter, Michael Lerner, Virginia Madsen, Mike Myers, Mary Kay Place, Fred Willard and Ben Stiller. The cinematography was by Irek Hartowicz.

A marquee shot. Yes, the movie Ulanna is making is also called "Nobody Knows Anything."
