  • Brad's tune Lazy Afternoon in The Break Up with Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn
    Posted Jun 6, 2006
    One of Brad's tunes, Lazy Afternoon, is in the new hit movie The Break Up starring Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn. The movie was the highest grossing movie for the first weekend in June.
    Inside Scoop: The scene occurs about an hour into the picture when Brooke (Jennifer Aniston) is going out on a "revenge" date with a less than compelling gentleman. They are in a classy restaurant with the backdrop of Chicago out the windows. My song Lazy Afternoon (listed as Fred and Ginger Reprise on my Solo Piano CD) plays throughout the scene. The song was a late addition to the movie and is not listed in the screen credits (darn!), but I will get paid!
