I worked at Women In Film years ago, which afforded me a few opportunities to meet some of my heroes. Every one of them exceeded my expectations with their graciousness & generosity, but Susan Sarandon blew them all out of the water in terms of pure charisma. I have never met anyone with such a gravitational pull. The woman is a walking sex pot, strong, intelligent, maternal & strikingly confident, plus she talked to me with the utmost respect. So, my heart always skips a beat whenever I see her mentioned in the news. This time, it's because she played host at a New York art event at Emergency Arts to help raise money for the Nest Foundation, which assists child victims of commerical sexual exploitation. Great cause! The thing that cracks me up is that she reportedly got star struck when she spotted designer Zac Posen & immediately had to call her daughter to share the siting. I guess big fancy movie stars can get as gah-gah as the rest of us.

I think that the way you describe her is exactly how she comes off on screen. I'd love to meet her one day and I hope I look like her at that age.
