"X-FILES star DAVID DUCHOVNY agreed to ask a fan's girlfriend to marry him - as long as the fiance-to-be screened his new movie THE TV SET for a year. The actor was attending an industry independent film festival in Las Vegas when a cinema owner approached him with the odd request, handing Duchovny a ring. Duchovny agreed to make the couple's dreams come true - on one condition. He says, "I turned to her and I said, 'I'm not going to ask you to marry him unless you say yes, because I don't want to be involved in that.' "She said, 'Yes,' and now she's starting to hyperventilate and cry... I don't know either of their names yet, so I say, 'Will you marry him.' "Then I said to them, 'Look guys, I'm not in it just for today. When I ask a woman to marry anybody I'm in it for the long haul and I wanna keep on checking up on you guys. "You have to promise me that you will keep The TV Set in your theatre for an entire year or else I will have it all annulled."

My question is this: Who was the theatre owner?

David Duchovny is still acting?

I'm hyperventilating! [Eek!]

Why this thread exists on Film-Tech:

A) because it happened at a film festival
B) because some stupid theatre owner is going to have to run a stupid movie on one of his screens for an entire year.
C) I thought maybe it was someone on Film-Tech that agreed to something like this.

You don't think the "Play my movie for a whole year" line was a joke?
