Serendipity 3 a 1960s photograph of Andy Warhol and Serendipity 3 co-founder Stephen Bruce. There is also a Serendipity 3 in Harajuku, in Tokyo, Japan. Serendipity 3 has appeared prominently in at least two major movies. The movie most associated with the restaurant is its namesake "Serendipity". Released in 2001, it centers on a couple that meet by chance while shopping at Bloomingdale's, and share dessert at the restaurant later that same night. "One Fine Day", released in 1996, also has a scene in the restaurant, featuring the Frrrozen Hot Chocolate. "Trust the Man", released in 2006, includes a scene of David
Kate Beckinsale the shoot but found her "complicated" and "prickly." McCarthy said the leads "confirm their status as two of the young actresses on the scene today most worth watching," finding Beckinsale "very effective at getting across layered character traits and emotions." "Danes and Beckinsale are exceptionally talented young actresses," said Thomas, but "unfortunately, the script's seriously underdeveloped context defeats their considerable efforts at every turn." Stephen Holden of "The New York Times" felt that Beckinsale's character "never comes into focus." The film was a box office failure. 2000's "The Golden Bowl" marked Beckinsale's first role following the birth of her daughter.
