A Box Office Disappointment Despite a Strong Performance
While she was reportedly paid $1 million for her role in the film, it was a box office bomb, and critics panned it.
The house appearing in the movie is situated atop a mountain overlooking Leo Carrillo State Park. Located on 12815 Yellow Hill Road in Malibu, California, it was listed for $14,900,000 in 2014 and has parking for up to 20 cars!

Leelee Sobieski’s Chic Return to the Red Carpet
In April 2012, Helen Hunt’s lookalike, Leelee Sobieski, returned to the red carpet, and we were glad to see her. The American actress looked incredibly chic yet casual at the Tribeca Film Festival in slim jeans, a crew-neck sweater, and bright Tabitha Simmons heels.

At the Tribeca Film Festival, she spiced up her basics beautifully by adding fun, summery heels to the ensemble.

Her tan satchel finished off the look and didn’t overpower her shoes or the rest of the outfit.
