Asked how they show their independence, BRIDGET FONDA (with ERIC STOLTZ) told us, “Actually it’s kind of nice to blend in and watch people and spy. We’re voyeurs basically.” Let’s hope Stoltz agrees.

Dating an actor can be difficult enough. But becoming romantically linked with a member of Hollywood royalty has its own set of ego-deflating hazards. When Eric Stoltz and Bridget Fonda were asked how the Independent Spirit Awards compared with the Oscars, Stoltz answered for both of them: “We’ve never been to the Oscars so we can’t make a comparison.” “I have,” Fonda interjected. “Oh.””I went years ago when my grandfather [Henry Fonda] won,” she continued. “Oh…oh,” was all Stoltz could muster. Don’t you wish you could be a voyeur and overhear that conversation on the ride home?
