NANJIANI The Big Sick and Silicon Valley actor, 42, joins Issa Rae, 35, in the romantic action comedy The Lovebirds (coming to theaters soon) as a couple on a trip to New Orleans who accidentally become suspects in a murder.

Do you see yourself as a romantic leading man? No, but I do love romantic comedy movies. When Harry Mett Sally, Four Weddings and a Funeral, Notting Hill—the usual suspects—are among my favorites.

What’s the relationship between your character, Jibran, and Rae’s Leilani? It can be very easy after a while to forget why you got together in the first place.

Their relationship has gotten stuck in a rut, and whose fault is it? But because of the life-and-death stakes, they end up having to actually listen to each other. And in listening to each other about how to go about solving this mystery, they’re also listening to each other about how to solve the problems in their relationship.

Why did you want to be a producer on Little America [Apple TV+], which is based on real-life stories of immigrants in America? I wanted to tell fun, interesting stories from a perspective that people might not have seen. But mostly, we just wanted to entertain people and tell stories that were funny or emotional, moving or exciting. All people are looking for love, or a place to live, or food, or to take care of their family, or to find a family.

Who is Kingo, the role you play in Marvel Studios’ upcoming Eternals [Nov. 6]? Kingo is at least 7,000 years old. He was sent to Earth to defend humanity against the Deviants, who are monsters. He’s supposed to keep a low profile, but he’s decided to go become a Bollywood star.

He just really enjoys all of it. He enjoys being famous. He enjoys having superpowers. He is, in a way, like a big kid.

What beloved food did he have to give up completely—for a year—to get his new body for the Marvel superhero role? Go to Parade.com/kumail to find out.

RISKY BUSINESS (1983) The movie made Tom Cruise famous for his underwear dance to Bob Seger’s “Old Time Rock and Roll.”

SIXTEEN CANDLES (1984) Audiences fell in love with real-life 16-yearold Molly Ringwald as Samantha.

THE KARATE KID (1984) The first installment in what would become a martial-arts franchise stars Ralph Macchio as a teenager taught karate by the master Mr. Miyagi (Pat Morita).

f you were a teen 40 years ago, you’ll remember it was a fantastic time for movies about you, from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, which helped solidify the career of young Matthew Broderick (see page 8), to films that introduced Tom Cruise, Keanu Reeves, Molly Ringwald and others! Here we take a look back.

I

FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH (1982) Sean Penn, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Nicolas Cage and Phoebe Cates star in this classic high-school comedy based on a book by young Rolling Stone scribe Cameron Crowe.

as anyone paying attention in geography class? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller? Ferris Bueller’s Day Off is one of the most indelible high school movies of all time, but even Ferris—with all his effortless cool and smarts—could never have gotten around the Windy City in the movie’s time frame.

The Flaw: What Ferris did and where he went! Geography, people!

Chicago is a big city. Like, really, really big. The makers obviously looked at what they wanted Ferris to do and decided to leave geographic and timeline reality in the dust as Ferris and friends drove away in a red Ferrari GT California Spyder.

Case in point: Ferris begins his day on the far upper side of Chicago, in one of those fancy North Shore neighborhoods past Northwestern University. He persuades his friend Cameron—who lives in a different fancy neighborhood—to borrow his dad’s Ferrari, pull the subterfuge with his girlfriend at the school and then drive into the city. The clock is already ticking!

But then! A longish discussion with the parking garage attendants. Sightseeing at the then-Sears Tower. Lunch (impersonating Sausage King Abe Froman). More sightseeing at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. A Cubs game (which typically lasts three hours, by the way) on the north side of town. Then more sightseeing back downtown at the Art Institute, followed by an epic parade crash. By this time, it must be nearly midnight! But no, it’s back up to the northern suburbs (presumably during rush hour), followed by an emotional discussion about life and love with friends, a ridiculously long footrace home and . . . Ferris is back in his bed by the time the folks walk in. By our math, those shenanigans would’ve taken roughly, oh, two days! Or at least 26 hours.

OK, this movie has Ferris talking directly to the camera, unbelievable character development and the sudden appearance of Charlie Sheen, so it’s clearly not meant to be taken too seriously. Still, the geography and timeline in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off remain a fantastic flaw in an otherwise terrific movie.

THE RIGHT CHOICE FOR DRY EYES

Ask Marilyn

By Marilyn vos Savant Say you’re sitting at a red light.

In your rearview mirror, you see the car behind you can’t stop in time. Knowing you’re going to be rear-ended, what should you do? Some people say you should brace yourself. Others say you should relax as much as possible. Which is better?

RESTORE SEAL PROTECT

—Brad Abel, St. Louis, Mo.

You should brace yourself, using your muscles to protect the vertebrae, disks and nerves in your spine and neck as much as you can. First, lean your head against the headrest and face directly forward. Then push your foot against the brake pedal and your back against the seat, if possible, and hold on to the steering wheel.

CEREAL TREATS Coat a 13-by-9-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

In a large saucepan over medium-high, combine 8 Tbsp (1 stick) butter and ½ tsp kosher salt. Cook 2–3 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until butter has melted and browned bits form along edges and bottom of pan. Add 2 (10-oz) pkgs mini marshmallows; stir until completely melted. Remove from heat. Stir in 10 cups cereal (such as Rice Krispies, Froot Loops, Cocoa Puffs, Corn Flakes, Cap’n Crunch, Crunch Berries, Corn Pops, Cheerios or Trix) and, if desired, 1 cup add-ins (such as chocolate chips, chocolate-covered nuts, chopped candy bars or peanut butter cups, sprinkles, toffee bits, chopped nuts, freeze-dried fruit, dried fruit, etc.). Scrape into prepared baking dish; press evenly into pan with a rubber spatula.

Cover with a piece of parchment paper; press down firmly to flatten. Cool before cutting into 24 squares.

Wrap individually or store in an airtight container at room temperature up to 2 days. Makes 24.

It’s day four “I remember of rehearsals for the Broadway thinking she revival of Plaza Suite. After this interview, the two are going to was wonderful, spend six hours portraying three hilarious and different couples at various stages beautiful.” of their relationships. Then the long-wedded real-life pair will head to their townhouse in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of Manhattan and…pretend like it didn’t happen. They don’t really take their work home.

“It doesn’t come up a lot,” says Broderick. “Maybe we’ll talk about it, but everybody needs a break to think about something else.”

“It’s not realistic,” Parker adds. “You walk in the door and there’s three children.” Interjects Broderick, “I forgot about them.”

Clearly, their chemistry doesn’t need any rehearsal. Squeezed on a velvet couch amid a scenery-strewn rehearsal room inside

a nondescript Midtown building, Parker, 55, and Broderick, 58, regularly finish each other’s sentences and laugh at each other’s jokes. At one point, he instinctively walks over to “It’s not like I a desk to fetch her a tissue so had my sights she can wipe off the coffee mug ring left on the table. set on him, but Though they’re each veteran I was aware of actors of some 40 years, Plaza him as an actor.” Suite—opening April 13 on Broadway—marks their first joint production since 1995. Adapted from a 1968 Neil Simon play (it was turned into a movie starring Walter Matthau in 1971 and an HBO film in 1982), the story consists of a trio of vignettes all set in a single suite of the famed Plaza Hotel in New York City. Parker and Broderick play three different couples: a longtime married couple on the brink of breakup; newly reconnected childhood sweethearts; and a husband and wife trying to cajole their jittery bride-to-be daughter out of the bathroom.

But Broderick and Parker don’t want audiences to read between

the lines, even as they recite them.

The parts they’re playing onstage aren’t anything like them. “I used to get uncomfortable watching a real couple have a romance onscreen,” he says. “But we are telling fictional stories.” Parker chimes in: “Doing a portrait of our lives has no interest to me.

These characters’ choices are different, and they live in a different time and place. That’s why the idea of doing this was so interesting.”

ROLE

Even though they’re both established movie and TV actors, it’s not quite accurate to refer to Broderick and Parker as a Hollywood couple, if only because of their deep roots in New York City. He was born in Manhattan to a playwright-painter mom and a theater actor father, James Broderick, who also worked on the 1970s TV drama series Family. Parker, meanwhile, was born in Nelsonville, Ohio.

Her mom, a teacher, and her truckdriver stepfather, along with her siblings—she has seven in all—moved to a New York City suburb Jan. 1, 1977, when she was 11 years old.

All either of them has ever known is acting. A trained singer and dancer, Parker made her onstage debut in The Innocents in Boston in 1976 and took over the title role in the original Broadway production of the musical Annie in 1979. Broderick appeared off-Broadway in Torch Song Trilogy in 1982 and won a Tony in 1983 for Simon’s coming-of-age play Brighton Beach Memoirs.

“I’ve never had a real job-job,” he says. “I babysat. I worked for a caterer for one day.”

she was when she saw all her future husband’s movies: She was filming Footloose when she watched his starring turn in War Games in 1983. A few years later, she and her actress friend Martha Plimpton caught his signature role as the smooth-talking teen in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off at a theater in New York City. “It’s not like I had my sights set on him, but I was aware of him as an actor because I liked his work so much,” she says. Broderick recalls seeing her in 1991 as Steve Martin’s flighty love interest in the comedy L.A. Story: “I remember thinking she was wonderful, hilarious and beautiful.”

In the early ’90s, Broderick was directing a play for a theater company founded by two of Parker’s brothers. One of them made the introduction, and Broderick soon called Parker and left a message on her answering machine (!) to ask for a date. In 1996, the pair, now living together, appeared in a revival of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying.

Broderick’s sister, an Episcopal priest, officiated their wedding ceremony in 1997.

They were still newlyweds when Parker began her six-year run as super-stylish writer Carrie Bradshaw on Sex and the City.

It’s the HBO series that made Manolo Blahnik stilettos and cosmopolitan cocktails part of the pop culture vernacular and, on a personal level, allowed Parker (also a co-producer) to achieve freedom in the city she loves most. “If I hadn’t played that part, then I wouldn’t be doing this play,” she says. “I’ve had so many opportunities and continued on page 12 10 | MARCH 29, 2020

Name

Once Plaza Suite wraps this summer, Parker says, she and her husband will see about working together again. She adds that her top priority will be spending time with James as he finishes high school. “I hope to work with Matthew again because I’m enjoying it,” she says. “But I’m not doing anything that takes me away from James Wilkie. Next year is for my son.”

Still, they realize there’s something special about being together onstage every night. They also realize their relationship is most special of all—and the less they talk about its nuances, the happier they are.

“It’s a point of pride that there are still lines that we don’t cross,” Parker says. “So we don’t talk about our marriage publicly because it’s ours, and it’s the one thing left that’s really and truly ours.” She turns to her husband and asks how he would say it.

“Like that,” Broderick says.

“That was perfect.”

Hodge, arrived in June 2009.

Broderick recently took James, now 17, on an extensive tour of colleges, and one night earlier, he assisted his daughters with their homework. “This is the last year I can help them with math,” he says, lamenting his lack of skills in that area. Over the recent holiday break, the girls obsessed over the 1982 movie version of Annie. All of their kids are artistic and love going to the theater, but both parents report that none has expressed a desire to act.
