DEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Well, I read you LJ, and I dont know if I can comment there or not because I dont have one.  Anyhow you were FIVE FEET AWAY! and you had eye contact FOUR TIMES! man, you and Hikity are soooooooooooooo lucky!  I really would do like, anything to see him.  Thanks for all the lovely information nd the report on Teh Hair and Teh Lips and Teh Bulge. (haha, that does NOT sound right.) haha.  Thanks.

Dee--Love your commentary, he sounds luscious.  What questions were asked and what was his response?  I'd like to know what the gen'l conversation was about the play.  By the way what did you think of the play???

Hi girls!

I'm new in this list but I know this website very well. I think it's fantastic!

In these days I'm a little sad because I was going to the Q&A but my flight was cancelled  .

I've seen Dee's photos BTW...lucky girl.

Ciao

"Practicum Theatre invites you to join them for an evening of diverse short plays inspired by 'My name is Rachel Corrie' and the banning of it. "

Um, I made the mistake of thinking this was more than it was - plays about plays.  Seems odd.

Dee, looks like some sort of theatre workshop thing. See HERE

Oh I just managed to get on the Perfume pic page with the link on Suzannes. I am really looking forward to seeing this film. Anyone else reminded of Robert Hardy in S&S in that Dustin Hoffman pic?

Back to earth (and work) with a bump today. I am getting nowhere with that kino link. Are there other Perfume pix on it? I'd love to see more of the rest of the cast too.

Off to catch up with all the London postings etc.

and yesssss, sevvy is a dear as usual! Thank you very much!

Waiting in the chatroom, in case you pop on

janeway that's the biggest version I have:

I hope I could help you sweetie

annette, where did you find Russians letters? It's nice. Very-very-very nice.

Dee I have just read the next installment in your LJ from your close encounter of the Rickman kind and  that is soooo beautifully written I have tears in my eyes as I type.  I feel that I am there with all you guys.  What a wonderful experience for you all.  Looking forward to your next installments.

And I just loooove those Perfume pics.  The colours are beautiful and the rustic feel makes them look like a painting.  Wonderful!

hi all!

does anyone happen to have a larger version of this awesome pic?

thank you very much!

Qwertyflo: actually i had written "thanks a lot-balchoi spasiba" in russian, but it came out that way!!! i copied it from a word document but it didn't work...anyway,  i just wanted to thank you for your help!

Úîëüøîé ñïîñèúî! for your help, but as Chris said, the first link worked after trying several times: thank you Chris! you're always ready to help!

Happy Sunday everybody.  Very exciting reports form Dee, Hikity, and Sue the Boatwoman!

Could I ask one of our British or Canadian members to slip into a book store and check this book for photos of AR?  It doesn't seem to have arrived in US bookstores yet (except the online kind)):

Shepperton Studios:  A Visual Celebration, edited by Morris Bright, Southbank Publishing, 2005.

Thanks!

Thanks, Bluebeatbabe. You can e-mail me on vatmanattinyworlddotcodotuk.

SUE: how could I have forgotten your birthday, sob, sob!

Hope it was a good one.

Sorry for a double entry...the verification code thing is a pain stating 'invalid' then sending anyway, which is why there are 2 entries..Claudia, Sabine, please delete one Thanks

Dee and Hikity,

Thanks for all the info on MNIRC...your pics are brill...he seems really happy ! Much more amenable in having photos taken.

I am still waiting for confirmation from Sheffield Theatres and have emailed them again..I'm on their internet list, So Alanfan and Juliet I will let you both know when I get more info.

Cyntilla and Bianca...Thankyou for recent correspondence, I will email you.

Keith. Thanks for your info re photos and for continuing to offer us nice photies of Alan ...we apppreciate it !

Annette, just refresh the page a couple of times, it`ll work, the same thing happened when i tried to open it. There are no more pictures of Alan on that page, however. Just other perfume pics. Thank you QuertyFlo!

annette, I am sorry. But it is correct link. I check it.

Maybe you try use the mine-page of these web-site

Wow, have i got alote of catching up to do on this  page. I am back from my hot and sunny vacation down in California and i can tell you that i still wonder why i live here? I  wont be able to catch up tonight on all the pages i missed but i did download the new Snowcake clip and thank you, it was wonderfull and did i not say that I think Alan hates wearing ties, the guy has not proved me wrong yet, thanks again for those pics as well.

Great to be back and you guys have not let me down while i was gone. Thanks, and a  special thanks to Vicki,,,,,,,later.

Sue, it is ridiculous how much you look like your Candybar doll!!

Some fine strokes there,Sue!

Happy Birthday, Sue!

QwertyFlo, the "Perfume" piccies are !!

Dee & Hikity!

Thank you for the downloadable versions of the SC trailer INTJ and Linda!

I'm right behind you, Vicki, off we go to Dee's!
Bienvenida Paula!

sue -  LOL!!  It's your birthday and they made you row?!?  Whilest the "captain" barks out orders in the background?  LOL   Looks like you enjoyed a beautiful day and had fun at the same time.  Thanks for taking us "along for the ride!"

I am on pins and needles waiting for a report from Dee or Hikity.  I keep checking her LJ.........wait!......A FIRST INSTALLMENT!...Later, girls.  I'm off to read!

Thanks again for all your good wishes

Yes Elaine, I did get rowed! But I am a better rower than him so view here:

http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v94/fantasteeek/videos/?action=view¤t=Birthdaycanal013.flv

QwertyFlo - Those piccies are... Are...

Wheee, new Perfume pics!

Hikity -

QwertyFlo thanky ou evry much, beautiful pictures!!!

Sue, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Thank you, ARdent Jan for you kind words

Here is an album where I take these images http://www.kino-govno.com/images.php?id=perfume

At last, a decent promo shot from "Perfume". Many thanks Qwerty Flo.

Sue, you were actually rowed? Lovely weather for it!

Yes, sue! It is the true. Realy true!

Oh great pix QuertyFlo!!

Been quite a weekend for new Rickmanalia!!

Hikity! Another precinct heard from! I wouldn't doubt the small group helped - both him and the rest of you.

Qwertyflo! The bigger the better! I absolutely love it!     But I am a little bit jealousing....This girl...

OK, both photos are brilliant! Thanks so much!

Best wihes

Yulia 

QwertyFlo - there is no such thing as a picture of Alan Rickman that is too large! That's worse than saying "Sorry - I gave you too much chocolate." Those are the best yet from Perfume, I think.  Thank you.

Dee - Fabulous pictures! He looks so happy. Waiting with baited breath for your word pictures.

Sue - Happy Birthday!

Wow! What a couple of days! That trailer still makes me cry whenever I watch it.

Is charming really enough, dear Dee?? He was in a great mood and I told him so and he laughed. Alan is a very nice, outgoing man, who looks even better in reality. We were only a few fans outside and that perhaps made the whole difference. Susan, her lovely daughter, Dee and I were very lucky, that is for sure. And he is wonderful to young people  so attentive.

have to go ladies, invited to English dinner...

 Tell you more on Monday!!

Sorry it is too big I know. But I do not know how make it smaller. I hope It is new one, at least.

One more - http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y210/QwertyFlo/a0ea65ff.jpg 

Dee--Those pictures are fabulous.  He looks so good and smiley and happy.  Thanks, you go girl!!!

Jules -  Thanx for clearing that up for me! I did think it was March or April but obviously I'm wrong. Autumn is good for me!!

WOW....Dee if you were in Texas, I'd hug your neck!!! Those pictures are the highlight of my day!!! Bless you......for sharing with us....He is PERFECT isn't he!!! ~SIGH~

Lucky, lucky you!!!

Thanks so much...

Becky

Hello Chris! Now I live in Russia but my grandparents live in Mexico

By the way I like the way people here congratulate everyone on their Birthdays! Very pleasant!
  

Best wishes

Yulia Ivanova

Thanks to all the new pictures, who took them did a great job.

One can't really quit the web without missing too much, I wonder sometimes what I did five years ago without the web.

Thanks for the link and the trailer, I know how I'm going to spent my evening

Oh, how could I forget:

Happy Birthday Sue

Jules, I agree with you!  In Dee's fabulous pictures, and Keith's as well, he seems to be glowing with happiness.  Life must be treating him pretty well, and I hope it keeps up for him!

*keeping fingers crossed that the current feast doesn't turn into an extra-long famine!  ack!*  

BTW, woo hoo, Dee!

Dee: great pics!!! thanx for sharing- can't wait to read your report on your lj! alan really looks so happy recently- it's a pleasure to see!!!

Dee - thanks for posting the pics!  They're great!

Thank you so much for posting the link to the Snow Cake trailer Sue. I can't wait to see that movie!

Dee, thanks for posting the pictures, I'm looking so forward to reading your report!

*Still on a high after watching TEH trailer*

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SUE!

Thank you Dee for the wonderful photos from last night.  Looking forward to reading all about it.  I really like your writing style so I know your analysis will be a good one.

Can I just remark, doesn't Alan look really happy of late, with last night and the earlier Haymarket event?  Now I'm not saying that he usually looks unhappy just that there seems to be that extra relaxed and content aura about him.  He looks wonderful.

We have an AR drought for so long, then it's like waiting for a bus; three come along together.  WONDERFUL!!!

As to the wondering when Snow Cake will be released I think I am right in saying that Marc Evans said seeing as it has a snow theme that he wanted it released later in the year - autumn I believe.  Correct me if I'm wrong.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SUE

Lovely pictures Dee.  Can't wait to hear all about it.  Glad you had a good time

INTJ, Thank you so much for the downloadable trailer.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SUE! 

Happy birthday Elisa, Sue.

Lex, is it also Amber_dragon's birthday?

Happy birthday to AD too!

I wish you all a beautiful day full of AR

(and I wish myself to learn to read this code!!! 6th try,aaaaaaaaargh)

I didn't give a proper thanks to everyone who inform about the clip and who upload it!

Thanks Sue, INTJ and Linda!

I'm still downloading it and can't stop fidgeting right now!

Yulia, weren`t you living in Russia?  Have you movde to Mexico? What do you mean you can`t watch it? The movie?

SUE!

Yeah, i wonder what Dee`s doing. Wait a second! When was she supposed to go to Q&A? Today? Or was it yesterday? Oh and when she does post, can you drop us a hint over the OT page, please? Thank you.

Great things are happenning!!!!!!!

Thank you all! 

But i feel sorry that I can not watch it in my country...

Yulia 

Do you mean this one Chris???

Happy Birthday

Amber_Dragon

Alma - Hmm, come to think about it...OH PLEASE! *slap*  That would be SO wrong! I`m sure it has NOTHING to do with it. (I can`t believe someone actually tought about that! ROFL) I loved the way the trailer was edited. I`m pretty sure it`s about giving himself another chance (although not in that *cough cough* particular field). I loved that sequence where he says "I`m starting to enjoy this..being with you, being with Linda...being with myself...again"  and then there`s that image with him in his car changing his glasses. (It reminded me of RedTango`s Agent Rickman gallery ) Oh, and I`m not even gonna mention the final pose! UPS! Seems like I`ve mentioned it already!

OH and whoever said that image of him right before he hugs Linda is totally thud worthy - my thoughts EXACTLY!

On a different nore,  who purchased the rights for the film again?

INTJ - Thank you sooo much!

I can't wait to see it, stupid hamster-speed connection...

Sue - Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday Sue

Thanks INTJ for the hi-res trailer

Thanks for all the birthday wishes too.

Oh wow, oh wow--I finally was able to download the trailer--I can't wait --it looks fabulous.

Thank you everyone for the links you're great!

ALMA!!!!

*snort*

Happy Birthday Sue!!!

PS: CatsPlay, you ARe an angel! Thanks again for the email.

I'm sorry fro asking again and I know its probably been told a few times but whe nis Snow Cake coming to the cinema in UK? I was under the impression it was March or April but nothing yet lol Dont ask me where I got that from, I probably dreamt it lol. So please if you do know can you tell me.

Thanx

Oh and btw, thanx for the trailer!!

Sarah!

Thank you for the downloadable versions INTJ and Linda.

And Happy Birthday sue!!!

 The woman who first told us abut the trailer.

Got to go now, have to squee... *lol*

INTJ:  THANKS A LOT!!!!- Sorry can't write anymore: I have to see it again right now.....

Thank you INTJ, for the hi-res trailer. It is simply amazing! The look on his face after Linda asks him to hug her is priceless!  If anything was ever thud-worthy, that's it. Is it fall yet?

...............................................................................

(Me, speechless after watching the trailer - eventually!)

Thank you, INTJ, for uploading that clip so quickly as it has enabled me to watch it NOW! If I'd waited until I got home, sleep would be a long time coming. Oh this film HAS to be released - SOON!

INTJ, you're awesome! Your smaller version works best on my old computer. Thanks also to Linda, and to Sue (happy birthday) for the heads-up via Suz.

The large, hi-res version of the Snow Cake trailer (50MB):

Daydreamer , Michele, everyone - my pleasure.

Linda - re: the programs, drop me a note with your e-mail address.

Sue - Happy Birthday!!

Best Birthday Wishes, Sue!    Hope you have an enjoyable day!

Thanks so much for the link to that trailer!  After having a thoroughly crappy day, it was nice to come home to a surprise like this! 

Some of my favorite lines:  "Be careful, Mr. Shifty", "...actually, she's my wife" and "it's alright, I know all about autism, I've seen that film."    There's a few of us on the GB here who can related to that comment! 

Has anyone heard from Dee or Hikity?  I've been thinking about them all day!

Happy Birthday, sue!!!!!   Hope you'll have a wonderful day!

 OH MY WORD!!  Thank you so very much for the Snow Cake trailer.  I'm sorry please forgive me but I feel a string of SQUEEEEES coming on.  That is so fantastic.  Alan looks wonderful.  Oh but when he cried  and the taster of those @!#%#@ scenes.

Is it autumn yet? 

Since its officially 29 April in Britain its time to dust off those birthday images!!!

Have a happy and special AR kind of a day, sue!!!

OH MY GAWWWWDDD!!! I can not wait for this film to be released! 

Thanks again Sue and Suzanne for bringing the news to us.

The caps are fantastic!  This film really looks like it will be beautiful.    

INTJ and Linda...what can I say???  THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!

I can't wait to read all about the Q&A tonight AND from everyone that goes to New York to see Snow Cake! 

Ok, now that I've finished uploading, I see that INTJ has uploaded the trailer, too. I'm sure her video has better quality than mine, but I'll post the link anyway because I spent over an hour to record, convert and upload it

http://download.yousendit.com/9216C36E00686AB5

btw INTJ how did you record it? I mean what program do you use? (if you dont mind me asking)

THANK YOU..THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH!

Sorry for the delay, guys, yousendit has been acting up all evening (arrrgh). Here's the Snow Cake trailer (the smaller version; I'll upload the bigger one ASAP):

http://download.yousendit.com/8DF9C8B96C98F050

Kathy, *waves*! Will email you soon! Can't believe you are nearly at the end of your course!

Sue, great find. I shall have to wait with bated breath to watch it though as I'm at work and the PC's here don't like media player files. (blimin' things!) Caps look gorgeous though! I really hope the film gets a disribution date here soon. All these film festival showings are great but I hope it doesn't mean that no one will take it on, a la TSfJG!

Thank you so much for the link, sue and Suzanne!  It looks like SC will be a great movie!

Hi Kathy!  Good to hear from you!

I am most unhappy--I can't download the trailer of Snowcake, what am I doing wrong??

Coming out of lurkdom--school is nearly over--finals next week--Hi everyone, I haven't posted for awhile but check in to see how everyone is.

Dee--Don't pay $30 to use internet connection at the hotel, there are tons of internet cafes all over London.  I found them where they charge 50p-L1 for 1 hour of internet time.  AND I am so glad you are having a good time.  Have a chocolate for me.

HI Elaine, Claudia 

Sue: Simply amazing!Even with mostly still pictures and the sound!!!! (DSL but economy slower-version)

Thanks to everyone for all the uploads. Anything is better then nothing.

Ladies, I managed to record the trailer with my digital camera. I'll upload it for you immediately. The quality is not very good, but at least you've got something.Give me a few minutes.

I've looked at the trailer 6 times now. LOL

Sue, you're an angel!!
Those screencaps are the best relief for my tantrum attack, !!!

*happily seeing & saving piccies while waiting for INTJ & Daydreamer*

OH GOD YES PLEASE  ONE OF HIM CRYING...or 2 or 3 ...OMG PLEASE

Anyone here going to see the move on the 7th in NY?

LOVE the pics....can you do one when he's crying?

Thanks

OK I know there has to be someone on here that knows where I can get a program to download and make caps from this NEW SNOWCAKE trailer... PLEASE HELP someone, anyone!! thank you...BECKY

WOW 

That trailer is fantastic.

Thanks Thanks Thanks....

I could go on but have to watch it again and again and....

INTJ, I hope you`re referring to the WHOLE video and not just the one that works as a link. Oh please say you were able to record it somehow!

  Woo hooooo, Sue and Suzanne! Thanks for the heads up!  I haven't seen it yet but will a little later. 

Thanks INTJ and Daydreamer for snagging it for us.  I'm not a work station I could do it at the moment! 

PLEASE tell me someone was able to get this for us to download. I loved the trailer soooooo much and I can't wait to see the movie.

Oh for crying out loud! I meant "neighbor" down there.

PS: I don`t mean to nagg anyone but Yulia, aren`t you like...14? 15? You`ll be sorry, really. The fact that "it helps" you is only an illusion.

Elanor, Hi! *waves to her nighboor*

Sue, you are a PEACH! Gee, i can barely contain my glee!

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR DISCOVERING THAT TRAILER FOR US!!

It is beautiful. I can't wait to see the film 

And don't worry Puddy, you're not the only one, I nearly cried, too  

Oooh pleeaaseee, someone save the trailer, please, please, please!!

I can't see it, my stupid connection didn't pass from the truck.

*kicking, screaming and suffering the side-effects of a tantrum*

Thank you thank you thank you sue. The trailer is fantastic. It is wonderful that the more bits I see of Snowcake, the better the movie seems to be. And the more tears come to my eyes. *embarrassing* It is so hard to wait and wait and wait. *sigh*

Thank you very much Sue and Suzanne, it's super mega fantastic!

Does anyone is able to save the trailer? I failed, I need to rewatch it a million times without buffering all the time

THANK YOU again!

Oh, so THAT'S what the title means!  Thank you so much for nabbing this, Sue!   (how long does it take a blown kiss to fly across the Atlantic?)

OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That was FANTASTIC!

Thank you SUE!

sorry, couldn't help it!

Ooh! Ooh! A mega Snow Cake trailer on Fortissimfilms. Thanks to Suzanne for the link.

WARNING-MASSIVE SPOILERS!!!!

Daydreamer, I think you emailed me once while we were in chatroom. I lost your email but I would like to tell you something, can you please contact me?

Thank you-

Sorry everyone for the OT.

Lex, thank you for the info about AR and smoke, I asked once without getting an answer, thank you

yulia, have some chocolate and it will help you for sure!!!

Live Journal: many AR fans put the link near to their name when they post here....just check who of them add this url

Elaine, Yes, I am a bit young to smoke however I do it because of some grounds. Maximum I smoke 3 cigarettes a day and it does help me.

Who is on Live Journal? I heard there were good societies devoted to Alan.   Can anybody hint me or tell their "location"? 

Thank you.

Best wishes

Yulia

Yulia, aren't you a little young to smoke? You do realise the damage smoking does, not only to your body, but to eveyone around you that has to breathe in the residue of your cigarettes? I would urge you to give up or you aren't going to see old bones.

Juliet, wonderful news, keep on rocking!

Claudia, I was most upset that AR could not be at the Curzon in person, as I'm only 30 minutes up the road from there. We used to have a caravan about 5 minutes away, too!

Hello Ladies!

Reedpipe, thanks fro the info you gave.

Dee! I merely melt while hearing all the words about Great Britain!

Claudia thanks for that information, but do europeans smoke a lot or not? I am just interested. I smoke and I like it very much indeed, because I buy only expensive cigarettes but even such ones are not useful I suppose...

I like those pics and you?

  and    

I have made them by "Print Screen SysRq" while watching a clip.

And to all of you !!!!!!!!!!!

Best wishes

Yulia

 Dee for checking in with us!  I'm with Ali-Pat on the "slightly contained impatience" for your report!  I can not believe you have a sunburn!   

Yulia, as far as anyone knows, AR does not smoke.  The most credible report I've read came from a friend who saw a performance of Private Lives in New York.  After the performance, she went for dinner at a restaurant and was seated at a table next to party of some of the cast and crew from PL.  Unfortunately, AR was not among the party but Adam Godley was.  A conversation was struck up between my friend and AG and the topic of smoking came up because there was quite a bit of smoking in the play.  Adam Godley told her that the cigarettes in the play were herbal and that none of the cast smoked. 

Happy happy Friday everyone!!!!

Can't wait to hear from you lucky ones that will be at the play tonight!

Quote:

But I'm probably the only person on the planet who could come to Great Britain and get a sunburn!

Me too, Dee! It was hilarious, in the end, a very funny memory to keep!

 Wonderful news, Juliet! 

Dee, you intrepid traveler, I await your next report with only slightly contained impatience.

On a side note, I finally got to the Snape chapter of Mapping the World of Harry Potter and I enjoyed it completely and noisily.  Really, the other folks at the bus stop must have wondered what was so danged funny.  It looks like the rest of the book will be just as entertaining.

Keith, thank you for the report!! I have some questions arising in case you still read the GB - there's one photo where he looks quite upset, standing next to the car - is it just a bad shot as in cathcing his expressions or did something happen? Secondly, do you mind to name the exact heading of the event (or anyone else here if it is known...) as Hay Fever opened before that date and I'm confused why that evening was pointed out...THNX a lot!!

Thanks Reedpipe for the news, it's interesting the way he said "Severus" instead of just "Snape"... It is a weak hint to guess anything about our favorite Potions-Master-on-the-run but at least is a good thing they're in first-name terms.

I spent some time looking at those hats on Ebay, Sue, thanks for the link!
Bet AR would send a cap of some sort, maybe a sport cap... What kind of raquet was he seen bouncing? Have to check the archives!

Congratulations Juliet!

Yes Michelle, I have to admit he's a bit of a sweetie! (Why are all the cute ones gay??)

That's a really nice picture of Paul though, Sue.  Don't you think?     He's so funny, that man.   He has kind eyes, really kind eyes.

He was dressed as a rapper on his show tonight.  Very funny!

Great!

I also know a message board concearning "Snow Cake" on IMDb http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0448124/board/threads/ 

Is Perfume on DVD? I saw a site offering this movie on DVD.

I always wanted to ask- do europeans smoke a lot? And what about USA and other coutries? Does Alan smoke? I suppose no.

And has Alan got his fauvorite "kind of food"? Does anyone know?

Thanks for help.

Best wishes

Yulia

Great news, Juliet!  Yay!

Perfume was shown at a test screening in Munich last night. There are a couple of posts on IMDb HERE

(Possible Spoilers)

Fantastic news, Juliet!  Every step forward is a reason to celebrate!!! 

Here's another charity AR is supporting.  See a Film - Raise a Roof
