New York, October 18 – What was it like making out with hunky Jude Law, who plays ultimate ladies’ man Alfie? Jane Krakowski: “I kind of can’t believe they paid me; it was such a delicious experience.” Nia Long: “I love my job.” Law’s girlfriend Sienna Miller didn’t offer an opinion, because she wasn’t at the film’s New York premiere. The couple met while shooting the film, and Law told us all about it: “We met at work. She’s a great actress. She has enthusiasm and talent.” Law said that recreating Michael Caine’s original 1966 role was “Terrifying”.

Gina Gershon and Monty Python's Eric Idle both said they came to the premiere to support their good friend Dave Stewart, of the Eurythmics. Stewart composed the Alfie score along with Mick Jagger. Jagger, no slouch with the ladies, said, “All men can relate to Alfie when they’re young”.
