Anne Hathaway has been surprised by the range of fans won over by her 2001 hit "The Princess Diaries."
While the story of an awkward teen transformed into royalty appealed heavily to young girls and their moms, male crowds also liked it, Hathaway said. Even businessmen.
"The movie showed on planes it seems like forever," Hathaway said in an interview last week with The Associated Press.
"Businessmen in particular got to see it that way, which is not the typical audience for the film," the 21-year-old actress said. "But they would come up to me and say, 'I saw your movie on an airplane and really liked it.' "
