Gerard Butler is a lovely human being and How lovely of him to treat the young people from SLUMDOG Milliare. Would love to see Gerard Butler in a movie in this country with Priyanka CHopra and some of those young stars from Slumdog Millionaire. It was absolutely a heart warming movie. Gerard Butler has great taste and is a wonderful human being. My family equates him with a young Paul Newman, but you won't hear to much in our gossip nonsense of how great the man really is.
