LOL that's so funny, how us women just think of things like that, ;) I think it's funny/cute, I just thought they had such good chemistry that they would have become good friends after that.....I swear I'm so nosey with there lives, I forget about my own JK JK....I actually heard that when they did the midnight margaritas that they really did drink them.....

I had forgotten where I read/saw this but Sandra Bullock specifically requested that Nicole Kidman play the part of Gillian. I think it was Sandra who first got hold of the book and said she really wanted to turn it into a movie and then declared that she couldn't envision anyone else playing Gilly. Maybe they had worked together before (not sure, too lazy to check the imdb credits) or maybe they had just met beforehand somewhere but Sandra said something about how she and Nicole hit it off right away and had tons of chemistry together so that's why she thought they would work really well portraying sisters.

they're really cute together, so much like loving sisters. They should make another film together.

I don't think they are really friends, but still enjoyed working together.

About the drinking: On the commentary of the DVD Sandra and Nicole (in interviews) said that they actually got drunk while filming the scene on Tequila (I think) which was brought on set by Kidman.

They are friends-- I've read it somewhere. And at the People's Choice Awards this year, Sandy went up to Nicole and kissed her.. so they are close! :)

Was that the same awards show where Sandra made the comment that they intended their hairstyles to be similar? That totally cracked me up.

Yeah it was! The People's Choice Awards 2010 if I remember correctly :) So funny!

Two of my favorite actresses, but Why didn't they pick somebody looking more alike? They are complete opposites physically

That was actually the point. There's an old myth about witches. Witch children are often dramatically different, as if gotten by magic. That's why Sally's daughters don't look alike (but do resemble both her and Jillian.)

It is the Owens. Each Owen's family that is connected to the curse and magic have daughters. Two precisely, one is a red head and the other is a brunette. They are also vastly different in look and personality.

I thought Sandra considered this one of her worst movies

[–] honeebun 14 years ago

yea definitely...in addition to the video and stuff people have already said, she was being interviewed for miss congeniality 2 and the guy asked her about nicole kidman and plastic surgery and she refused to answer. she was like no, not about nicole...and the way she answered seemed like they were truly good friends :)

I'm so glad I wasn't the only person thinking about this. They had really awesome chemistry as sisters.

I remember two things very clearly: I am a great sinner and Christ is a great Savior.

Love their chemistry! The power of sisterhood! I also love the aunts and daughters! Definitely a movie for sisters to watch together.

I watched this last night. I was really in the mood for it. Nicole and Sandra should definitely consider working together soon. They had great chemistry in this and glad to see they are still friendly.

I see I wasn't the only one who wondered if they were friends in real life? They do have amazing chemistry together. Too bad they haven't made another movie together. At times, this film was silly, but it kept me wondering what was going to happen next. I did enjoy it.
