Rumor Has It, Derailed, and finally The Break-Up. She joked, "If anyone has a
movie called Everlasting Love with an Adult Stable Man... I'm at table six, and my
agents are at table 12."
Holly Hunter accepted the Lucy Award, named after Lucille Ball, which was
created to honor those whose excellence and innovation have enhanced the
perception of women through the medium of television.
Director and writer, Catherine Hardwicke, was awarded the Dorothy Arzner
Directors Award, named for the first female member of the Directors Guild of
America. Hardwicke directed the recent mega-hit, Twilight, adapted from
