A TRIUMPH OF VINTAGE

by Rita Zekas - STAR GAZING

LOVE IS ALL AROUND US: Jennifer Love Hewitt has become a fave among local autograph hounds, whose photos she signs readily. On Friday, while shopping with her brother in Yorkville, Love Hewitt even asked for copies of some of the photos to send to her grandmother.

BAD BABES RISING

They've made it big by being wicked. Garth Pearce discovers how a crop of highly paid, very successful young actresses is bringing girl power to Hollywood.

Winchester, a British film company, is currently seeing the advantage of their investment in Heartbreakers, with the 22-year-old Jennifer Love Hewitt playing the con-artist daughter of Sigourney Weaver. The film looks set to deliver a full return on its investment of £15m, and has already grossed £3m in four weeks in Britain.

The dark-haired, brown-eyed Hewitt, who grew up on the hit television series Party of Five, also brought to Heartbreakers that ingredient vital to the success of all Hollywood twentysomething stars: a bad-girl moment. Her particular turn was kneeling in dress and high heels in front of a protesting Ray Liotta and giving him oral sex. It was one of the movie's most memorable scenes. "Britain has some brilliant young talent and that is not in dispute," says the American director David Mirkin. "But the Hollywood-based girls seem to have a certain sassiness that translates worldwide."

BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE CAN GET THEIR KICKS AT CLUB 606

Jennifer Love Hewitt a recent sighting in quaint dining area

by Vinay Menon - CLUB CRAWL

The pouty, crimson lips. The smouldering, come-hither eyes. The plunging, body-boasting ensembles.

Make no mistake, bar/club 606 (named for its address on King St. W.) remains a smoky mecca for the city's most beautiful, alluring people. They perch on stools, congregating in exclusive clusters, laughing and chit-chatting along the lengthy bar.

There are high-fashion waifs seductively puffing on cigarettes. There are film and television execs, swilling martinis and waxing pretentiously. There are actors and aspiring actors, models and vamps, designers and musicians.

"We get all sorts of people in here," says manager Steve Biasutti. "We don't advertise, so word of mouth has carried us for years."

Last Saturday, Jennifer Love Hewitt had dinner in the quaint dining area. And actor Cameron Mathison said recently that when he's back in Toronto he makes a point of returning to his old haunt.

Even the staff are gorgeous.

That's because, as Biasutti explains, most of them are also actors and models. The night shifts allow them to audition and shoot during the day.

On any given Friday or Saturday, as local DJs pump pounding mainstream dance and retro disco into the cozy rear area, as many as 700 will converge and cram into the bar.

Once inside, they sip cocktails, smoke, and slither provocatively to the syncopated beat.

Like most clubs, the door is carefully controlled, to ensure "the right mix" of people get inside. (Given the über-babe factor, there's a $10 cover for wide-eyed males on the weekend.)

During the week, however, the atmosphere is less frenetic, far more relaxed.

In the dining room, one may observe regulars and locals feeding on grilled sea bass or breast of duck. Others, sitting at oversized, stainless steel tables across from the bar nibble on spring rolls, calamari, chicken quesadillas, and sashimi beef.

Given the fashion and entertainment businesses in the area, 606 also does brisk lunch service, with cross-cultural offerings like pad thai, gnocchi with sautéed sweet onions, and moules et frites.

And while there may be cooler, trendier bars in the city, 606 has managed to retain an enviable and intangible "hip factor" over the past eight years.

Today, its patrons are truly heterogeneous, ranging in age from 20 to 60, and living throughout the GTA.

"The key to 606 is that it's like three places in one," says Biasutti, referring to the dining, drinking, and dancing areas. "So people can get exactly what they want."

Since superchef Susur Lee opened his eponymous restaurant across the street, 606 now gets a new influx of well-heeled diners who arrive for a pre-meal drink. Biasutti says Susur's patrons don't have to wait in line to get into 606.

"We give them special treatment, just to be neighbourly."

SAMUEL ARKOFF, LOW-BUDGET
HOLLYWOOD PRODUCER DIES

By Dean Goodman

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Samuel Z. Arkoff, a maverick Hollywood producer who churned out more than 500 low-budget -- and often hugely profitable -- cult movies, died of natural causes on Sunday, his son Louis said. He was 83.

Arkoff, who said movies were no good unless they titillated audiences, tapped into the youth culture long before the major studios took notice of the lucrative demographic.

Among his best-known releases were the Michael Caine thriller ``Dressed To Kill,'' ``The Amityville Horror,'' ``I Was a Teen-Age Werewolf'' and the ``Beach Blanket'' series starring teen idol Frankie Avalon and ``Mickey Mouse Club'' belle Annette Funicello.

The stout, cigar-smoking producer, an Iowa farm boy who graduated from law school in Los Angeles, was a businessman first. The word ``art'' never crossed his lips, trade paper Daily Variety said.

``Thou shalt not put too much money into one picture,'' ran one of Arkoff's many mottoes. ``And with the money you do spend, put it on the screen. Don't waste it on the egos of actors or nonsense that might appeal to highbrow critics.''

QUICK SUCCESS

With partner, the late Jim Nicholson, Arkoff co-founded American International Pictures in 1954 and hit pay dirt that year by distributing ``The Fast and the Furious,'' a gritty action film directed by future B-movie king Roger Corman. That $60,000 film grossed $250,000.

Corman's career would continue and in 1993, producer Corman cast a mother and daughter in a movie titled LITTLE MISS MILLIONS aka: HOME FOR CHRISTMAS.

Their names: JENNIFER LOVE and PATRICIA HEWITT.

A year earlier, Jennifer Love Hewitt was one of the stars of a Roger Corman production, "MUNCHIE" also starring Andrew Stevens who would become a motion picture producing partner in a company called FRANCHISE PICTURES.

Continuing....``I Was a Teen-Age Werewolf,'' made in 1957 and starring Michael Landon, cost $100,000 and was shot in six days. It grossed $2 million.

``The Amityville Horror,'' a haunted-house thriller starring James Brolin and Margot Kidder, grossed $65 million domestically in 1979, making it the biggest independent film until ``Teen-Age Mutant Ninja Turtles'' 10 years later.

In 1979, AIP also picked up the North American distribution rights to ``Mad Max'' after the major studios passed on the Mel Gibson breakthrough picture.

Horror was a mainstay of AIP films, but the company was quick to capitalize on other genres, such as gangster films (''Machine Gun Kelly,'' ``Dillinger''), blaxploitation (''Blacula,'' ''Black Caesar'') and drug culture sagas (''Wild Angels,'' ``Wild in the Streets'').

``I think my dad was one of the first mavericks,'' Louis Arkoff told Reuters. ``A movie was never a good movie unless it contained two thrills a reel. He always said people go to the movies to be entertained and to be titillated.''

KEY SPRINGBOARDS

Perhaps more important than most of the films themselves, AIP provided early springboards for the likes of directors Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola, Woody Allen, Ivan Reitman and Brian De Palma and actors Robert De Niro, Jack Nicholson, Bruce Dern, Peter Fonda and Melanie Griffith.

AIP was also a marketing dynamo. To help promote the 1956 film ``Black Cat,'' one of many AIP films based on works by Edgar Allan Poe, the producers lined some 500 black cats up along a Hollywood street for a cat contest, the winner of which would make it into the film. Life magazine captured the image for a cover.

Arkoff approached the business with a sense of humor and never countenanced Hollywood bureaucracy, his son said. He often blasted the studios for allowing production costs to skyrocket and was mostly ignored -- to their eventual regret. But the studios did take notice of the audiences who flocked to his pictures, and they gradually usurped his turf.

Arkoff and Nicholson sold AIP in 1979, and Arkoff attempted several comebacks via a new company. Largely retired for the last 20 years, he published his memoirs, ``Flying Through Hollywood by the Seat of My Pants,'' in 1992. Last September, he attended the premiere of ``It Conquered Hollywood: The Story of American International Pictures,'' a documentary narrated by filmmaker Peter Bogdanovich.

He served as executive producer of ``Creature Features,'' a series of five new feature-length films inspired by five of his monster films from the 1950s. The first episode will premiere on the Cinemax cable channel on Oct. 4, said Louis Arkoff, who served as a producer.

In addition to his son, Arkoff is survived by a daughter, Donna Arkoff, who is married to producer/director Joe Roth who's Revelution Pictures produced (with Roth directing) "AMERICA'S SWEETHEARTS". Arkoff died at Providence St. Joseph Medical Center in Burbank, California. Funeral services are set for Thursday.

CELEBS PLANT THEMSELVES AT ROOTS

by Shinan Govani

WHEN A HOTTIE MEETS A HOTTIE ...

Her body is by Mattel; her face is why God created film projection: Laura Elena Herring (pictured), one of the stars of David Lynch's Mulholland Drive. Almost everyone agrees this actress is the hottest of the hotties here at the fest. Very warm too, I must add. Like a hot towel right out of the dryer. She has both Mexican and German bloodlines, she told me over lunch the other day.

Yesterday, when I ran into her at the Four Seasons Hotel, she mentioned that she and Jennifer Love Hewitt exchanged phone numbers when they met for the very first time at the Premiere magazine party at Prego on Sunday night. They're trying to find a date to go salsa dancing together in Toronto this week. I bet they could sell tickets to that girl's night out.

And while we're on the subject of Ms. Hewitt, when I saw her at that same Prego party. She told me she's working on a CD for the same record company that is responsible for Britney Spears. She's in major songwriting mode right now in Toronto. Gets all sing-songy in her trailer, says the junior J-Lo.

SWEETIE, YOUR WORK IS FABULOUS
MY HOLLYWOOD LINGO EXPERIMENT

by Rebecca Eckler

At film festival parties, everyone is double-F "fabulous." Everyone is a "sweetie" and everyone "just loves your work."

At the Chum Citytv Festival Schmooze on Friday night, I decided to take schmoozing to its fullest. I decided to speak only Hollywood for one hour. Meaning, from 1 a.m. to 2 a.m., I only spoke three sentences, with variations on the themes of "You look fabulous," "I just love your work," and "Hey, sweetie."

I practised on my boyfriend before I left.

"You look fabulous," I began.

"Don't you mean 'double-F fabulous'?" he asked. "Do you want some more wine?"

"Thanks, sweetie. That's fabulous," I said, watching him pour. "You know, I just love your work. It's fabulous. Don't I look fabulous?"

When he asked what time I would be home, I shrugged my shoulders and said, "Sweetie."

He asked if I would have my cellphone. I smiled and responded, "Fabulous."

He said, "Have fun," and I winked and said, "Love your stuff," as I walked out the door.

If I, a nobody, am called "sweetie" and told I look fabulous during film festival parties, just how many times does a celebrity get told those sorts of things?

I stopped Jennifer Love Hewitt, teen idol and every man's brunette fantasy, as she arrived. I asked her how many times a day people told her, "I love your stuff."

"Sometimes a lot," she laughed. "It depends what I'm working on."

"And 'sweetie,' how many times a day?"

"I don't know," she said. "A lot. Maybe 40 times a day."

"And 'You look fabulous'?"

"Thank you," she said, smiling sweetly. "That's so sweet."

"No," I responded. "I mean, you do look fabulous, but how many times a day are you told that?"

"Oh, rarely," she said, being led through the crowd, with people whispering behind her back how sexy she looked. "You look fabulous!" I yelled to her back.

Singer/songwriter Chantal Kreviazuk was there with her husband, musician Raine Maida. "I love when people say, 'I love your work,' " she said. "I haven't been out in public in a while, and you forget your connection to the fans. So when people say that, it keeps me going."

I told her what I would soon be attempting to do, meaning only say those three sentences, and she said, jokingly, "You know, you could probably raise your baby to say only those three sentences and send her off to parties."

Wouldn't that be fabulous?

Queer as Folk star Gale Harold said he doesn't get people telling him they love his work. Two minutes later, a young woman ran up to me, saying, "Oh my God. That's the guy from Queer as Folk. I'm so in love with him. He makes my Monday nights."

Harold is sweet, however, on the word "sweetie." "I love the word 'sweetie.' I wish people would call me that all the time. It's a great word."

Ralph Fiennes says he's called sweetie at least once a day, told "I love your work" at least once a week, but he's never told he looks fabulous. Strange, of course, since I had to push through two young blond women who were each holding on to one of his hands with one of theirs while handing him their business cards with their other hands.

I began my Hollywood-lingo- only experiment at the bar, asking for some white wine. "Fabulous," I said, as the bartender grabbed a bottle.

"Would you like the wine in a bigger glass?" he asked.

"Sweet," I said.

I saw an acquaintance standing in a group of people. "You look fabulous, as always," I started.

"Are you going to the Hugo Boss party?" he asked.

"Should be fabulous," I nodded.

Film festival parties are all about schmoozing. Which means you don't actually have conversations longer than 15 minutes. So it's easy enough to smile, nod and throw in the occasional "Fabulous," "Isn't he sweet?" and "Love their stuff," without anyone thinking twice about what you're saying.

It's like people asking, "How are you?" when you know they don't truly care. Even when a friend said, "You look really tired," and I responded with, "Yes. I am. But in a fabulous way," she didn't notice it didn't really make sense.

"See you later, sweetie," I heard on my way out. "Tomorrow night, OK?"

"Fabulous," was the only appropriate response I could think of.

BCBG LOOKS TO DIG ITSELF OUT OF CASH CRUNCH

By LISA MARSH

The show must go on, but at BCBG Max Azria, the seams are beginning to wear thin.

Though the fashion house will be putting on an extravagant fashion show under the tents in Bryant Park today at New York's Fashion Week, BCBG's finances have been better.

"It was a little bit tight," owner and designer Max Azria admitted to The Post.

Amid rumors that company executives had been shopping for additional credit, the company has turned to a non-traditional source of funding to help it through a cash crunch brought on by aggressive expansion.

Vince Camuto, founder and former CEO of Nine West, has agreed to loan BCBG $10 million. And as part of the agreement, Camuto and BCBG Max Azria have entered into a strategic alliance calling for Camuto to produce shoes under the BCBG name.

Camuto has also been granted a one-year option to buy 10 percent of BCBG Max Azria, which is estimated to do $320 million in sales annually.

"The deal was done in 30 minutes," Azria said. "We had a drink - he was talking to me about shoes - and we agreed there, at the table. There was no problem between friends."

The recent financial crisis is a result of rapid and significant expansion for the company. BCBG Max Azria opened a 5,600-square-foot flagship store on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills in July, the first of 12 openings in the U.S. and eight internationally that are scheduled for the next three months.

The company will open its first store in SoHo on Wednesday and will re-open its five-level, 5,900-square-foot flagship on Madison Avenue later this month.

Camuto coming on board is "not about the price," he said, stressing that Camuto also brings "advice and experience."

But Azria's not interested in other partners.

"There is a line of people who want to be a part of this company today," he said.

"I'm not interested. You never say never but, today, we're not looking for anything else."

The fraying at BCBG may have started this year when the company discontinued its three-year-old men's wear division. Now, the company plans to restructure the division and relaunch it later.

BCBG, which stands for "bon chic, bon genre" - "good style, good attitude" in French - burst onto the women's contemporary market in 1989. Based in Vernon, Calif., it courts the young celebrity set, most notably Debra Messing, Ashley Judd, Halle Berry, Heather Graham and

Jennifer Love Hewitt.

"MUST ... STAY ... AWAKE NON-STOP FILM FEST
PARTIES CAN BE MORE TIRING THAN JET TRAVEL"

by Shinan Govani

THEY JUST HAPPENED TO BE HERE

You've heard about the schoolbus full of stars rolling into town to promote their films, but ought you not also be aware of some of the celebs who don't have anything in the festival, but who might be hangin' around anyways?

Jackie Chan, for instance, who happens to be kicking around the city, kicking being what he does so gorgeously. He's working on a film called The Tuxedo with Jennifer Love Hewitt, who already did some festival-ing when she showed up at the opening night party on the Lakeshore. Her hair swayed lyrically and her leather outfit crackled Rice Krispee-like. And, yes, she did look very well-upholstered.

STARS IN TOWN WHO ARE NOT PART OF THE FESTIVAL

By Mike Szymanski

TORONTO (Zap2it.com) -- Jennifer Love Hewitt showed up wearing a purple hat with a feather at the City TV bash outside the funky local TV station.

These are a few of the stars in town who have nothing to do with the Toronto Film Festival, but they're enjoing the parties and hoopla as Hollywood invades this Canadian city, where a lot of filming goes on during the year.

"I never get invited to anything, I didn't know the festival was going on," says Hewitt with a major "duh." She's in town shooting "Tuxedo" co-starring Jackie Chan.

VISION IN BLACK CRUELLY DERAILED
ONE SMOKIN' TRAIN OF THOUGHT

By LEAH McLAREN

"Did you see which way Jennifer Love Hewitt went?" asked one of my colleagues.

We were standing sipping gin and tonics on the balcony overlooking the magnificent ballroom at the Liberty Grand two hours into the opening night postgala bash.

"That way," I lied, pointing down the stairs leading out of the cordoned-off VIP area.

"She was wearing a backless black sweater and her boobs looked a bit saggy." (The latter part was true.)

He beetled off in search of some dippy quote and I resumed my game of pretending to be a publicist from New York (I'm too pale for anyone to believe I live in L.A.).

One thing the Party Princess has noticed about the film festival nightlife is that the journalists are, hands down, the most unattractive people in any given room, excluding, of course, the on-air television personalities.

But the problem with TV hosts is that they can be irritating -- the way they always expect you to know exactly who they are, no matter how piddly and obscure their half-hour weekly digital entertainment television show is.

Plus it's a well-known fact that film people think all TV people are lame, which is why I was pretending to be a publicist. Irritatingly, people kept blowing my cover.

"So, hon, what films are you planning to see during the festival?" This was my friend D., another (cringe) journalist.

He works for a gay magazine and deejays on the side, so I figured it was okay to talk to him. Plus I was getting lonely.

"Oh, D. Everyone knows that party reporters don't see any movies. It's practically a rule."

"Don't be silly," he said. "Films are what the festival is supposed to be about.

"You know, an appreciation of the art of the cinema."

Cinema, huh? Well if D. was such an all-knowing culture vulture, what screening should the PP see tomorrow?

"You have to see Absolument Fabuleux, the French version of Absolutely Fabulous," he said.

"Everyone is talking about it."

"Fine then," I said and stomped off in search of some edifying cultural conversation.

Outside in the Roman-style courtyard, the first people I bumped into were Maya Mavjee, the publisher, and her boyfriend, Henry Jackman, the philosophy professor.

"Have you seen any intelligent people around here?" I asked them. "Maybe a filmmaker?"

Maya introduced me to Peter Lynch, whose latest film, Cyberman, is about a genius computer geek at the U of T who created the world's first wearable computer. It screens at the Varsity tomorrow.

I'm pretty sure I won Lynch over immediately by indicating that I knew who he was (Canadian documentary filmmakers love that).

I even gushed for a few minutes about how much I adored his last documentary, Project Grizzly (about a guy from Northern Ontario on a quest to wrestle with a grizzly) -- and I wasn't fibbing just to make conversation.

"Why," I asked Lynch, "do you think you are attracted to these alienated, Don Quixote-types?"

"I like to go past the surface of my subjects," he said, "into their interior worlds with all the messy bits and weird contradictions."

"Mmm, yes," I said, formulating a brilliant response -- then Jennifer Love Hewitt walked by and I lost my train of thought.

KIISFMi.COM RACKS UP
THE ACCOLADES WITH A WAM!

LOS ANGELES, CA -- The Academy of Digital Music Arts & Sciences, a leading Internet music trade group, has nominated FMiTV's KIISFMi.com for two Wammy Awards. The LA-based iSuperstation received nominations for Best Webcaster and Best Webcast Event for its May 13th webcast of the Wango Tango Concert from Dodger Stadium. The nine-hour concert featured performances by *NSYNC, by Sugar Ray, Lenny Kravitz, Enrique Iglesias, Brian McKnight, The Goo Goo Dolls, Marc Anthony, and Sisqo, among others. KIISFMi's ``iSclusive'' backstage interviews, celeb spotlights and chats featured band members along with today's hottest stars, such as Tom Cruise, Shannon Elizabeth (``American Pie''), Meredith Monroe (``Dawson's Creek''), Kirsten Dunst (``The Virgin Suicides''), Beverly Mitchell (``7th Heaven''), Frankie Muniz (``Malcolm in the Middle''), Seann W. Scott (``Road Trip''), Ethan Embrey (``Can't Hardly Wait''), Justin Kirk (``Jack and Jill'') and

Jennifer Love Hewitt ("Can't Hardly Wait'').

As the highlight event of the Gavin ``Music on the Net'' Conference, the Academy will hold The First Annual Wammy Awards ceremony in San Francisco on Thursday, September 21.

More than 200 eligible Academy members, esteemed professionals in the Internet, radio and music communities, will cast votes to determine the Wammy Award winners. The Wammy Awards are presented in recognition of excellence and achievement in music on the Internet. Specifically designed in response to the ongoing explosion of artistic, visual and technical creativity, the Wammy Awards honor those individuals and organizations whose creativity and innovation have quickly made music the biggest mainstream category on the Internet.

The iSuperstation also took top honors as the Most Technically Advanced of the 50 sites. KIISFMi also received a Webby Award nomination this past April.

``Some broadcasters have used the Internet as a useful brand extension -- KIISFMi has tackled the new medium head-on,'' said David Dalton, CEO of Gavin, organizer of the Wammy Awards. ``Not only does it build on the identity of a great radio station, KIISFMi has quickly established a three-dimensional image of its own. The spectacular Wango Tango live webcast has also been recognized among the nominations as a vibrant example of how to showcases music and connect with an audience on the Internet.''

A joint venture with Clear Channel Communications, Inc., KIISFMi is the flagship iSuperstation of FMiTV Networks, Inc. Through an eclectic mix of radio, video, print and interactive media, FMiTV truly delivers the reality of convergence as a new entertainment paradigm for the Internet. KIISFMi, targeting a Gen Y demographic, offers the latest in hot new music, celebrities, film, fashion and original programming, while seeking to constantly push the limits of Internet technology.
