Paris: Natalie Portman's Hotel Adventure
Don't be fooled by that demure look: Natalie Portman has a steamy love scene in her latest project, a short film set in the famous Hotel des Chevaliers in Paris.
The 15-minute short entitled, appropriately, "Hotel Chevalier" co-stars Jason Schwartzman and takes place in one room of the hotel in Paris' bourgeois Marais neighborhood, between the 3rd and 4th arrondisements. The hotel has only 24 rooms, but each is equipped with air conditioning, and an overnight stay includes breakfast in its 17th-century basement.
The film is intended as a prequel to director Wes Anderson's new movie, "The Darjeeling Limited," which will have its American premiere at this weekend's New York Film Festival. ("Darjeeling" stars Adrien Brody and Owen Wilson along with Schwartzman as estranged brothers on a train trip across India to scatter their father's ashes.) Download "Hotel Chevalier" for free on iTunes now--according to our informant, it includes Portman's first nude scene in a movie.
