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 but it was not well-reviewed. Mick LaSalle of the "San Francisco Chronicle" described her as "a pretty actress doing her best to maintain dignity, vainly trying to craft a feminist statement from a filmmaker's whimsy" while Rex Reed of "The New York Observer" felt she was "desperately in need of a new agent." Also in 2004, Beckinsale portrayed Ava Gardner in Martin Scorsese's Howard Hughes biopic "The Aviator". Scorsese decided to cast Beckinsale because, "I've always liked her. I've seen all her work, and I was glad that she agreed to audition." Beckinsale's performance received mixed reviews. Ken Tucker of
