The accomplished actress and archer aims to promote women in sports.

Geena Davis' smile is almost as lethal as her bow and arrow. The Oscar-winning actress and world class archer has one of those perpetual, toothsome grins that are as infectious as chicken pox, but considerably more enjoyable.

Our own Liam Mayclem basked in the glow of that 1,000-watt smile as Davis talked up the technology behind her new movie Stuart Little 2 and the role of tech in her personal life.
'The whole thing is fake'
"Movies are all technical," says Davis, even films that don't have furry virtual creatures as their main characters. "The whole thing is fake," she admits. From the cameras to the lights to the sets to the editing, movie magic is not much more than an elaborate, entertaining hoax perpetrated by old and new technology.
Will virtual-character technology kill the careers of flesh-and-blood actors? "[Stuart the mouse] costs more than three Jim Carreys." As long as studio execs have a mind for the bottom line, Davis thinks she and her other human Hollywood stars are safe.
Aiming for equality
Capitalizing on her role as a celebrity archer, Davis has become a heavy promoter of girls and women in sports. She's even built a website called Geena Takes Aim (part of the Women's Sports Foundation) to educate girls about their rights under Title IX and to encourage women of all ages to get involved in athletics.
TiVo trouble
Davis even has a technical question for Patrick and Leo. Why can't she watch a different channel on her TiVo other than the one she's recording? Watch Friday's show to hear our answer.
