'My whole life I’ve always thought, Why don’t they just let women run this country?' Rudd tells us.
THERE IS NOTHING more delightful than waiting for Paul Rudd to call. Except for when he actually does. When I answer, he says, “Lisa! It’s Paul!” with his signature enthusiasm, affording me the opportunity to fantasize that we’re old pals. It’s not a stretch—I’ve had a crush on the 50-year-old Rudd since 1995 , when he played Alicia Silverstone’s love interest in Clueless.
It’s a boon for audiences, since everyone can agree that two Paul Rudds are better than one. “Oh, I’m not so sure about that,” he says, after the words tumble embarrassingly out of my mouth. Who wouldn’t agree? “Got a pen?” he asks with a laugh. Still, the existential dramedy is a binge-able treat for fans of this feminist heartthrob. It’s a title he lives up to, even if he’s not a hundred percent sure about the word. “I consider myself a feminist in that I consider myself a humanist,” he says.
Another thing Rudd absolutely loves is the 1979 film A Little Romance starring a teen Diane Lane. It was his favorite movie growing up, he says, before launching into a synopsis—an American girl living in Paris runs away to Venice with a French boy because kissing under the Bridge of Sighs in a gondola at sunset will supposedly cement their love forever.
