00:03I rather like the scene in the restaurant
00:06when I introduce the kitchen crew to Mr. Popper
00:13because he wants to buy the restaurant
00:15so I want to introduce him to the crew
00:18and we sit down and have a conversation
00:20my character is revealed through what I say
00:23what I ask him
00:25in other words I am trying to find out from him
00:28certain things about his attitude towards
00:32the restaurant, the building and so on
00:35and I want to tell him about my family
00:38and how important my family has been to this restaurant
00:48I hope they will understand and like it
00:51I know they love La Signora in Ghiallo
00:54and that's difficult for them to equate
00:58her, Jessica, with Mrs. Van Gundy
01:03but they know I am an actress first and foremost
01:07and I think they will understand the humour
01:10I hope so
01:14She's a woman of another era
01:18another time
01:20she is living in this time but she really
01:24she's not comfortable
01:26you know
01:26she is a very rich lady
01:29whose family has owned this old restaurant
01:32for years and years and years
01:34and she realises the time has come
01:37she must sell it
01:38but she's a very important social lady in the city
01:42in the city of New York
01:43and has been very rich in her life
01:46and she's formidable
01:53she really doesn't know what's going on there you see
01:57until the very end
01:58when they come in with Mr. Popper
02:00she understands what they mean
02:04and she appreciates them
02:10oh I think they're going to love
02:12all the scenes in the apartment
02:14with the penguins
02:17and the children
02:18the children interacting with the penguins
02:21up in the apartment
02:23Mr. Popper's apartment
02:24and in the bathtub
02:26and in the shower
02:27and of course when the shower fills up with water
02:30and then he opens the door
02:31and out they come
02:33I mean this is real slapstick stuff
02:36I think kids will love that
02:38I know they do
02:39because we had two small children
02:41in the audience last night with me
02:43and I could hear them laughing
02:46they were just killing themselves laughing
02:48it was great
02:53well the preparation
02:56everything has to do with the clothes
02:59it was great
02:59it was great
02:59it was great
02:59it was great
03:00Grazie.
