New
York
(ANI):
Hollywood
star
Bruce
Willis
barely
escaped
injury
when
the
escalator
he
was
riding
on
suddenly
sped
out
of
control.
Willis
and
his
publicist
Paul
Bloch
were
at
MoMA
for
Sunday
night''s
Cinema
Society
screening
of
'Red
when,
according
to
a
source,
the
escalator
sped
and
a
scared
woman
happened
to
jump
on
Willis.
"The
escalator
taking
guests
down
to
the
theater
accelerated
to
near-carnival-ride
speed.
Women
started
screaming
and
one
did
a
high-flying
jump
off,
nearly
landing
on
Bruce," the
New
York
Post
quoted
the
source
as
saying.
The
'Sixth
Sense"
star
immediately
checked
that
the
woman
was
OK
and
appeared
puzzled
when
the
escalator
then
abruptly
stopped.
"We
had
to
jump,
it
was
going
so
fast,"
said
Bloch.
Willis
was
joined
at
the
screening
and
the
OC
Concept-sponsored
after-party
at
The
Lambs
Club
by
co-stars
Helen
Mirren,
Morgan
Freeman,
John
Malkovich,
Mary-Louise
Parker
and
Ernest
Borgnine,
93,
who
said
Hollywood
shouldn't
be
so
obsessed
with
youth.
"You
don't
need
a
young
cast
to
make
a
great
movie,"
said
Borgnine.
