Matthew Perry's birthday, at the age of 56, is commemorated by Salma Hayek.
Remembering Matthew Perry: A Tribute from Salma Hayek
On what would have been Matthew Perry's 56th birthday, Salma Hayek, his co-star in the 1997 romantic comedy Fools Rush In, paid a heartfelt tribute to the late actor.
In her Instagram post, Hayek wrote, "Thinking of you today, Matthew," in Spanish, accompanied by a photo and a scene from the film. The post also included a clip from the movie where Juan, Isabel's brother, meets Alex, played by Perry.
Fools Rush In tells the story of a chance encounter between Alex, a New York architect, and Isabel, a Nevada photographer. The film showcased the chemistry between Perry and Hayek, who played the lead roles, and is remembered fondly by fans and colleagues alike. One fan commented that the movie is one of their 'stop and sit to watch' movies, appreciating it as a beautiful love story and tribute to Hispanic culture.
Perry's performance in Fools Rush In was notable, and he later reflected on the advice he received from the film's director, Andy Tennant, which helped him deliver one of his best performances. The film contributed to Perry's reputation as a versatile actor capable of leading romantic roles, distinct from his famous portrayal of Chandler Bing.
Hayek recalled the special connection she shared with Perry while working on Fools Rush In. Another fan expressed their love for the movie, stating that Hayek and Perry together were "silver screen magic." Fans responded to the post, sharing their own fond memories of the film and Perry's talent.
The fan base is still heartbroken over the loss of Matthew Perry. Hayek, in her tribute post, spoke about the special bond that happens when you share dreams with someone and work towards them. The post serves as a poignant reminder of the impact Perry had on both the film industry and those who knew and loved him.
