Hollywood shifting to Hillary

After a summer of fundraisers, she's winning over a bunch of show-folks - at least according to a breathless LAT story. The Rob Reiner endorsement was apparently a big deal, since he can drum up support from lots of affluent corners. One notable fence sitter, former Paramount head Sherry Lansing, might be about to choose sides after a fundraiser earlier hosted by Marc Nathanson.

Lansing said she arrived at the event with an open mind. She's said from the start of the campaign that she would meet with all the presidential candidates before making a decision on whom she's supporting. So far, she's liked them all. But Clinton this week wowed her. "Her speech was one of the most amazing things I've ever witnessed," Lansing said. "She was intelligent, thoughtful, confident and warm. She seemed so relaxed."

Clinton supporter Ron Burkle said Hollywood types start out not wanting to like her, but then discover that she's more charming than they had expected. She also remembers names, which is an important skill set in Hollywood. It's hard to know how much of this adoration is real and how much is the recent tide of "Hillary is inevitable" talk.
