May the Schwartz and the Kimchi Be With These Gala Honorees

Playing Lone Starr in "Spaceballs", the Mel Brooks spoof, might have been enough reason for New York Stage and Film to honor Bill Pullman Sunday night, a month before the release of the latest Star Wars movie.

But not only has the Schwartz been with Pullman, he’s also played Jamie Dimon in "Too Big to Fail" (Dimon "ought to have his own movie," Pullman said at the time); Daryl Zero, the detective with the floppy hair in "Zero Effect"; a paramour of Meg Ryan in "Sleepless in Seattle"; and the president of the United States in "Independence Day."
