Elizabeth Banks: Nora Ephron Was 'an Inspiration'

Elizabeth Banks celebrates the release of her new film, People Like Us, at the Disney Screening Room on Tuesday (June 26) in New York City.

The 38-year-old actress was joined by The Moms co-founders Melissa Gerstein and Denise Albert at the event hosted by Martini.

Earlier in the day, Elizabeth took to her Twitter account to express the loss of screenwriter Nora Ephron, who passed away at the age of 71.

“I got to hang with Nora Ephron. A great wit, a real broad, an inspiration to me. #brokethemold.”
