Exercising less control and letting go are themes that everyone -- including male cast members Collins, Tom Everett Scott, Colin Ferguson and Gabriel Macht, accompanied by his wife Jacinda Barrett -- grasped at the premiere at the ArcLight in Hollywood on Tuesday night. ``This film could heal dysfunctional relationships between all mothers and daughters,'' predicted the childless Macht. And most parents admit there's room for improving their relationship with the kids. ``I'm still working on limiting control,'' said Perkins. ``If they're supposed to be home at 11:30 and aren't, I call them at 11:31. I should learn to wait until 11:42.'' What's the easiest way to profit from the lessons in the romantic comedy? ``Watch the many mistakes made by Diane's character and avoid repeating them with your own kids,'' said director Michael Lehmann, who has an 18-year-old daughter. And what about Keaton, who left 11-year-old daughter Dexter at home? ``I don't know Don't know (DK, DKed) "Don't know the trade."

But Smith had a reality check before he took the stage. ``You know, I could have played that role pretty well, too,'' Cruise joked before the two walked to their seats. Then the honoree was asked by a young fan to take a photo while she posed with -- you guessed it -- Cruise. Chris Gardner, the once-homeless man Smith portrays in ``The Pursuit of Happyness,'' also took a potshot pot·shot also pot shot n. 1. A random or easy shot. 2.

When Smith finally walked on stage, he failed to notice a sheet of white paper stuck to his shoe. Wife Jada Pinkett-Smith had to come on stage to remove the paper as Maltin asked, ``So what are you doing here tonight?'' ``I hear they serve great creme brulee at a new restaurant on State Street,'' Smith deadpanned before revealing during the candid and humorous 90-minute chat that his overinvolvement in his character in ``Six Degrees of Separation'' led to his first divorce and that he considers ``Ali'' his best film. Then the Smiths, Cruise and Gardner skipped the after party with 800 guests at the Four Seasons Biltmore hotel to pursue ``happyness'' elsewhere.
