As a relentlessly cheerful housepainter in Bodies, Rest & Motion, Eric Stoltz spends most of the movie wooing a reluctant Bridget Fonda. In real life, he has already won her: The couple share a home in New Mexico, a dog named Old Buckethead and the occasional movie co-billing. "We work together as often as possible," says Stoltz, 31. "Our work is so demanding -- 15 hours a day -- when you get home you're too exhausted to have a decent conversation. So if you can spend that time with someone you love, it's helpful to the relationship and enriches the film." With that kind of schedule, it's hard to fit in a visit to the Cineplex. "Going to movies is a luxury that's far down on our list of priorities," says Stoltz. "Making them, however, is high up on our list."
