'Sex and the City' mania hits London

Chris Noth plays Mr. Big and Sarah Jessica Parker is Carrie in "Sex and the City."

It is one of the most hotly anticipated movies of the year and after years of feverish speculation, Sex and the City the movie, premieres in London Monday night.

The film has been dogged by controversy in the four-year lead up from small to big screen-- rumors abounded about squabbling over pay, editorial control and even outfits, among cast members Sarah Jessica Parker and Kim Catrall, who plays maneater Samantha.

There have also been protests that the film will open in London. Not surprisingly, American fans believe its spiritual home is in New York and that it should be seen there first.

It will not be shown in New York until May 27.
