Last night some of the biggest names in Hollywood got together in San Francisco for a reading of The World of Nick Adams at Davies Symphony Hall. The event was to benefit Paul Newman's Hole in the Wall Camp the Painted Turtle, which made it an especially touching and memorable evening. The legendary actor was honored by friends including Julia Roberts, Tom Hanks, Casey Affleck, Joaquin Phoenix and more. Bruce Willis didn't have any of his ladies, but smiled and showed off his salt and pepper beard. The celebrities all participated in reading the Ernest Hemingway stories on stage to the audience and among their peers — it was a very special evening indeed.
To see lots more from the event including Bruce Willis, Tom Hanks, Rita Wilson, Danny DeVito and others just read more.

1Joaquin surfaces!
2I love the pinkish streaks in Julia's hair. Love them!
3nice to see bruce, casey and joaquin
4One day I was standing in the store and then I saw it. That Paul Newmen was dead. I was devastated.
5Joaquin, finally! Happy birthday, sweet one!
6I was wondering when Joaquin was going to show again...what a great event to do so!
7I've missed Joaquin. It's good to see him.
My sister went to this show last night. Can't wait to hear how it was.
8Julia and Rita Wilson should be sisters in something. I love them both.
Bonnie Raitt!
9Julia looks amazing, I can't believe she's 41 already. Happy Birthday both to her and Joaquin.
10I just love Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson. They seem so incredibly normal, and are one of the few Hollywood marriages that have actually lasted.
11Brian, I always thought that too. I would have LOVED it if Rita had played the role that ska&&y sarandon had in stepsisters. She almost ruined that movie for me.
12Joaquin Phoenix...HOT!!!!!! OMG, I need a cold shower. LOL
13Mykie, that movie was the saddest sh*t I have ever seen. I love Rita, but I really liked Ska&&ky Sarandon in that role. lol
14julia roberts is ssooo beautiful
15good too see actual talented actors honoring the great Paul Newman
16Julia is Beautiful
17i love the pic with bruce kissing julia! happy birthday julia, you look beautiful as always!
18Lovin' Julia's hair!
19Brian, the only thing I liked about Ska**y in that movie was that she died! LOL
20What's going on with Joaquin? I love him to bits, but lately he seems.....troubled.
21That is such a lovely comment Mykie. lol
22this is the hollywood crew that i LOVE to see more often. i get tired of seeing the same young faces everywhere so this is a nice change of pace.
23Well, what can I say Brian. LOL I can't stand her. In fact, if possible, I dislike her more than that Mother of 6 so many others seem to adore.
24Wow! haha Thats number 2 of my something new I learned today. The first one was that snack size bag of Fudge Stripes is much too big for a snack. The 100 Calorie pack is too small.
What to do?!
25Eat too 100 Calorie packs and call it good.
What the HECK are fudge stripes!?!?!?! LMAO
26Casey!
27Julia looks scary. She looks classy but a bit scary. She had Bruce actually had a thing once. They were together once if anyone can remember
It seems hollywood is tiny after all huh?
28blue, actually Julia never dated Bruce Willis. They have been friends for a very long time, but at the time the rumors started stating she was dating him, she was actually dating Benjamin Bratt.
29I love the pink streaks in Julia Roberts' hair. She said she got them because her daughter Hazel wanted to see her with pink hair. Cute! Is Julia preggo again? I know there have been rumors...
How did her and Bruce Willis meet? I know that they have been friends for a long time (remember his cameo in Ocean's 12?) but I don't remember how they met.
I can't believe all of these stars were in my neck of the woods last night...awesome
