Fla. Lawyer Meets Jennifer Aniston (and Dave Barry)
A Florida lawyer got his 15 minutes of fame last week after he was selected to be an extra in a movie being filmed in South Miami.
Starring Jennifer Aniston and Owen Wilson, it also included, as another extra, the newspaper columnist Dave Barry. Thus, not only did civil litigation attorney Joel Magolnick meet Aniston, after being introduced to her by Barry, but the encounter was featured in Barry’s column in the Miami Herald.
While he himself, as a trained media professional, was immune to Aniston’s appeal, Barry writes, Magolnick, was just a bit more star-struck. “I introduced him to her, and they had the following conversation, which I am not making up (bear in mind that Joel is a professional attorney whose job requires great precision with language):
“ME: Jennifer, I’d like you to meet Joel.
“ANISTON (shaking Joel’s hand): Nice to meet you!
“JOEL: Urg.
“ME: He’s in love with you.
“ANISTON: Aww.
“JOEL: Urg.”
