thanks for the compliments

Sue, Emily, thank you for the photos and the article! I also found it here  http://www.wireimage.com/GalleryListing.asp?navtyp=SRH&logsrch=1  

Hikity, thank you very much indeed! 

It seems to me that Lindsay looks younger then she is. And Alan look terrific as always!

Best wishes

Yulia

Poor bugger looks tired. Hey Alan! Slow down ok, your  going to go bonkers. Go on a holiday, relax, do a little chillin at home--give the lady a sweet  an ole pickle tickle, have a beer/wine/irish coffee--whatever and and dont forget " its all about you", hee hee.

Ah, kinda of a Love Actually reunion too. Isnt that the guy who plays Sam's teacher?

I didn't have time to see/save them, can I have them please?

Emily and sue!!!  Thanks for the story and pics from the renaming ceremony! 

He looks great, doesn't he?  Its great to see the Private Lives team back together.  Well--less Emma Fielding.   

CatsPlay, I would hope that the deletion was unintensional.  Please post them again, if you don't mind.  I would love to have them. 

Attention all you fledgling video makers!  I found the most wonderful site and the terrific thing about it is that they offer a premium account AND a free account!!!!  Check it out!

One True Media

OK, someone apparently deleted those larger sized images.  So I'll just go away.

Here are 2 of those in higher resolution

Report on Renaming Ceremony HERE

Heh, Sue!

Just a minute in front of me Emily!!LOL

Photograph from this afternoon's renaming ceremony of the Albery theatre. It is now called the Noel Coward.

New pictures, taken today at the renaming of the Albery Theatre to the Noel Coward Theatre. He's with Adam Godley and Lindsay Duncan in the second and third shot.

emilia, don't worry: he doesn't do any of that sort in his hair - the wet looks comes from the heat there...

Claudia, beautiful pics, thanks a lot.

Yulia, good luck with your language studying!

Ladies, another one and a half hours here to wait. Tanja went to Cologne where thousands meet to watch Teh Game in open air.

And we have beautiful weather    

Jessika,,,,,,,,,,,,, oooohhhh . So sorry. I get it now, duh . I too agree that i cant wait for it to come out.

Jessica, yes I am Russian, (1/4 Spanish), and currently I live in Russia, and what do you want?

Reedpipe, I saw it here  http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/contributor/1800021960/bio   Probably it is about Mike Newell? I still can't catch it.

So, I've began to learn German, who can help me in practice, please e-mail me. Thanx.

Best wishes

Yulia

Another Kiwi, you got me!

Sorry girls, I think my English confused some of you, i'm working on that

ALFAN, I think you misunderstood me. That scene is INDEED wonderful, touching, makes me feel extremely good AND comfortable. I'm just uncomfortable because i'll have to wait long 3 months till see it!!! And that scenes almost makes me cry! I gotta see that! You got me?   

Yulia IVANOVA (are you Russian?)

i think i missed that part too! i don't know about this film!

Hello Ladies! Kristina, you shouldn't worry about your English, whatever you say about Alan we'd understand. It's like in a very popular advertising "We all speak one language-Alan Rickman( in our case), so feel yourself okay.

Ulrika, thanx for such cute stuff!

Claudia, thank you very much for the photos, they are fantastic!

Ladies, I'd like to ask you some questions which I am so interested in. So, is it true, that "

The failure
of Antony and Cleopatra has steered him away from Shakespeare."? The article is "Alan Rickman: Beguiling monster who made Cherie weak at the knees"

I think here is somebody who was at "Antony and Cleopatra" and was it really a failure? 

One more thing, which I have no idea about.:

Rickman again revived his role as the mysterious Professor Snape for the series’ fourth installment, “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire” (2005), the first to be helmed by a British director (Mike Newell). Then in late 2005, he began shooting “Zodiac,” a psychological thriller about the famed Zodiac killer who terrorized San Francisco from 1966-1978.

Probably I missed something, or I was abcent when you discussed it? Anyway, please tell me what is "Zodiac". Sorry, if I say something wrong   

Thank you

Yulia

Thanks for the new photos, Claudia. I think Jessika meant she was "anxious" to see the film not really that she was uncomfortable. Unfortunately Snow Cake is not at our local (Wellington) Film Festival next month. I feel very peeved.

Hi Claudia! Welcome Home!

Nice pix

WOW Claudia,it was a real treat to see those pictures. What I would like to know, though ,is what has he got in his hair???Is it just wet perhaps,is it hair gel, or (horrors)some Brylcreem like product?Any other ideas?

Welcome aboard Maryland and Kristina!  Glad you finally felt comfortable enough to join us. 

Congrats to your son, Maryland and I'm sending many good wishes for his success. Who knows....maybe one day he will get the chance to work with AR!  Wouldn't that be something to talk about?

Kristina, no apology needed at all about your English.  You do very well with English.   

Ellen that diary entry you posted was fun to read.  AR certainly has a great sense of humor. 

sue, thanks so much for the RSC archive link and the review of SC.  I hope everyone will get a chance to see SC in the fall.  I still haven't read any word on it opening here in the US. 

Liamath, the link you posted with the Hunniford interview and caps is from Suzanne.  I love that interview!

Many thanks for Laura for the 2002 European Film Awards red carpet video!  Gosh, it doesn't seem that long ago that I was sitting in front of my telly waiting for AR to show up on that show!  And as usual,   bunches of thanks to INTJ for capturing the video for us.

Camerata, your site is getting better and better each and every day!  Congrats!

Last night I was surfing eBay for an ice cream freezer to take to my Daddy's in September for his 70th birthday and thought I'd do my usual perusal of AR stuff and found some pics from Tribecca that I don't recall seeing before.  If these are old news, please forgive me. 

                                            My favorite one!

My next favorite one!

Jessica, that part in SnowCake where she asks Alex to put his arms around her and squeeze her really hard but dont touch me with your hands is i think suppose to be a signifigant in some way. Its too bad it makes you feel uncomfortable as it should not make you feel uncomfortable it should make you feel good, you know something, i even did that with Keith one day and you know what,,,,,,,,,it made me feel good. It a feel good moment in the movie i think but i will not know for sure until i see it.

Jéssika, you shouldn't be uncomfortable,

Thank you all for caregivers explanations, and the phrases on snow cake trailer!!

Now.. that part she says to Alan put his arms around her and squeeze really hard.. and he does! That makes me feel uncomfortable to wait to see this film!

BEAUTIFULLY done, Daydreamer  

OKIE DOKIE! Two things:

 -the Snape/Eowyn Video. It totally just reminded me once again how seductive his eyes are. Its totally Teh Seductive Eyes/Look. Haha. (good post, BTW)

-asking if anyone is seeing MNiRC.  It reminded me to ask if Mr. Rickman is currently in the city or not, so if anyone knows, do share.  Thanks for reminding me.

If anyone here is going to see MNIRC please post here. I want to go but I haven't anyone to go with, though I have been bugging  my sisiter to go with me.    I want to go up for a couple days and take in The Lion King or Jersey Boys too.

Snape in love?!?   

Check out this video on youtube, it's fantastic!!!

!!!

What a wonderful review, sue, thanks for posting it! I am so much looking forward to seeing the film.

Hello everyone,

At first I want to apologize for my English. But I think you will understand what I'm talking about.

I visit this ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL, BRILLIANT, PRECIOUS site already several months. It took me days and days to see all clips and most of  messages.

  Until today I decide to arouse public notice - that I'm in the same boat.

  Alan Rickman gives me reason to live, reason to be who am I ( is it understandable ? :-) ).

 Beside next things important for me, he is best actor which I've ever seen. Talking about his voice is funny - is there someone who don't love it?

  I'm quite young and hope that one day I'll be talking to him, perhaps working with him...who knows...(I'm working on it)

For your information I want to continue study and live in England-my favourite country in the world :-)

  On Friday I'm leaving from Czech Republic (country which I hate) to spend summer holidays in Madison at my uncles house. So my english has a chance!

  This is a reason why I decide to write my first message (before my departure) and hope to visit this site every day as I used to do last months.

 I have a notebook but I'm not sure about connecting to Internet in USA.

Simply: I want to belong to your big family and not be just a calm watcher.

Uf...exhausting :-)

Now I'm going to watch Robin Hood, I haven't seen it for sooo long time!

And sorry for my tenses-I'm absolutely not sure when, which...you know

A new review of Snowcake on IMDb

heartbreaking - and not just for ASD professionals, 28 June 2006

Author: xjl-mummy from United Kingdom

I was able to see this as part of the recent Autism Cymru conference, and can honestly say that this is one of the best films I have seen for years. It somehow maintains a balance between the drama, the need to establish Weaver's character without mawkishness or making her a complete freak, and a rite of passage for Rickman's character. There was no point at which I doubted the authenticity of the character's experiences. It does help to know something about autism (I am a parent of someone with ASD and parts of this were so true it hurt) but not compulsory, and I would heartily recommend it to dispel some myths! I can't really tell you more without giving it all away - go and see it! Snow Cake is both poignant and rib-achingly funny in parts.

We were also fortunate to meet the writer, the director and the autistic woman who "coached" Sigourney Weaver. Absolutely fascinating. I can't wait for this to be released and will be buying the DVD for friends and family.

Linda--" have you ever had an orgasm Al?"

Alex--" it has been known"

Linda--"Vivian once explained it to me and it sounds like an inferior version of what i feel like when i have a mouth full of snow, you should try it."

And Caregivers are all types of nurses from Registered Nurses to Licenced Practical Nurses to Nursing Assistants ( wich do not have any medical background). Caregivers provide support to those who are in need rather it be with ADL --Activities of Daily Living ( bathing, dressing and eating) to those who just are a companion of sorts to watch out over those who need a litte direction or encouragment. Usually they do not work in a hospital but in a private outfit that the family of the loved one hires.

I know this as I am a LPN, and i work in a hospital where we are allowed to give medications, needles and support to the Nurses Aids.

 Jessika, you are right he say's "It has been known"

The other phrase is "It sounds like and inferior version of what I feel when I have a mouthful of snow"

Caregivers is not a phrase we use much in the UK. We would mormally say "carers" ie somebody who looks after sick/disabled/handicapped people. It can be an employed person or simply a member of the family.

Girls! I need something if some of have a time...

In "Snow Cake" trailer Alan is asked if he had ever had an orgasm, I'd like to know what he responds cause I can't understand, is it "It has been known"?

And then Weaver says to him "it sounds like and inferior version of what I feel when I have ... now". What she says in the "..."???

And another tiny thing... what does "caregivers" mean? At that sentence on McDonald's?

Yes Dee, I'd like to hear your theories about his teeth, just to know briefly what kind of work he has been done.

I'm going to start a dental treatment and I hope to have a good result like Alan.

I didn't know you were a dental assistant.

That's why you have a so beautiful smile 

Have a nice day all of you.

Welcome MARYLAND!!

And I deeply hope you watch MNIRC because I'll not be able to see

Maryland, thanks a lot for the explanation - good luck to your son!

Dear Hikity,

My son's degree is a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Television/Film.

New York University, Tisch School of The Arts, Maurice Kanbar School of Television/Film. What a mouthful!

Nick is his name and he wants to either direct or write films. When he was a little boy, the first film he wanted to own was "Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves". Naturally he can quote The Sheriff to this day! In fact, RHPOT was a favorite of my three boys. ( I have a daughter too!)

NYU has graduated some of our most celebrated directors and actors. Nick had the opportunity to meet many of them.

Hope this answers your question.

Maryland, a huge welcome to our fantastic group. Now, you are really lucky and I cross my fingers that you meet our man. He is just wonderful in "real world"! And congrats to your son. As I am not familiar with the abbreviations would you pls explain this to me: BFA degree in Film from NYU . Does he want to work as a director? For yr info: I have been married for 25 years this year, our daughter is 20 and entered university last October (students in Germany are older due to a long school time).

Dee, is there anything you haven't yet done?????????   

Hello fellow AR fans!

I've been lurking here for over two years but after Dee's revelation that she was a Dental Assistant, I had to say "Hello".

I've been a Dental Assistant for over twenty years, the last fifteen at a cosmetic dental practice.  Naturally, I was very happy when AR had his teeth " fixed ". I am hoping to go to NYC to see MNIRC in the fall. I have a 23 year old son who just got his BFA degree in Film from NYU (which coincidentally is the Alma mater of directors Ang Lee and Chris Columbus).  He just moved to an apartment on the east side of Greenwich Village, across town from the Minetta Lane Theatre. How amazingly convenient if I want to come up for the play!

In 1987 I was not an AR fan and could have seen him in LLD on Broadway, and also missed him in Private Lives. I am determined not to miss this chance to see his play and hopefully meet him as well. I have managed to obtain most of AR's films either on VHS or DVD, even "Judas Kiss" and "Rasputin". My husband of almost 35 years is very understanding, as he is the direct beneficiary of my "state of mind" after watching an AR film! ( You ladies must know how that works!) Please pardon my first post for rambling on and on! Please  post when fans are going to MNIRC! I don't have tickets yet!

Regards,

Maryland

Hi girls !

When I'm on that page, on the left, the links below "Photo" don't work for me and work for some of my friends. And for you ? That's weird

Hello everyone! I have not been here for so long time! I am soooo sorry that I couldn't congratulate Claudia on her happiness!!! So, I congratulate you!

Kathy, happy Bitrthday!

Camerata, thanx for the pic.

Frieda, I did not understand you, but I suppose that you are ready to aid me! Thank you a lot! I haven't begun to learn it yet, but anyway, I am seriously going to learn German!

Thank you all for you being so nice!

Sincerely

Yulia Ivanova

Cyntilla ,no problem

  42C here!

I found the Richard and Judy interview with JKR on mugglenet.com.  She seems like a really lovely person, nothing about our Snape, in fact nothing of substance but she comes across as a really lovely (and beautiful) person.  She's one of those people that you're really glad something nice happened to.  However I am really anxious to read book 7.

Sarah, mwah mwah to your other half! LOL!

You can email me stuff on vatmanattinyworlddotcodotuk

Please please please let the reprieved one be OUR professor!!

Great work, Laura and INTJ!

A message for Laura (sorry for the little OT): non te la prendere, ti assicuro che le altre erano in buona fede,  davvero!  Perdonate?

Man, good catch on the teeth! I don't know that I would have noticed any time soon. *sigh* I kinda miss the snaggle tooth look. It's rather charming. And I do so adore his minor imperfections.  LOL!!! Anyone remember the episode of The Simpsons where Lisa goes to the dentist and she doesn't want braces but he "threatens" her with the "Book of British Smiles"? LOL!!! God, that is still so funny.... anyway...

That JKR is cagey about her stories! And I'm torn between REALLY wanting to know about book 7 and not wanting it to ever appear...cause then it will be OVER! And of course she didn't and won't say anything that gives you any real clues about what will happen.

But I have my theories....I like to think that Snape later goes on to open a reform school for wayward girls.....

Juliet - My other half is taping Richard and Judy (DVD recording) and is goin to convert it to an avi file and anyone who wants it can email me and I'll send it them, I dont know how to use yousend it or the like but if anyone who does know wants to host it then feel free! I'll let you knwo when its sorted!

(He'll only convert the JKR bits obviously)

Wow! Excellent find, Laura!  

Snagged red carpet clip: http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=C96335F63FB7A421

old stuff but new to me:

http://www.filmfestivals.com/cgi-bin/fest_content/festivals.pl?debug=&channelbar=&fest=efa2002&page=play&partner=&year=2002&lang=en&medi_id=18275

the video page has a clip of red carpet and there is Alan Rickman from European film Awards,2002, in Rome.

Does anyone have more about this event and is willing to share?

Sarah, thanks for the offer of feedback from JKR with Richard and Judy. 2 3-yr olds! Yikes. I'd like to say it gets better, but...LOL!

Teeth!

Yeah, I wondered about the teeth.  Okay I need comparison pix.  I can't remember when I noticed, but I thought his bottom teeth looked like he'd had something done.   I'm off to look for some pix.

Miriam

Juliet - I'll try and take notes on the interview with JKR on Richard and Judy. Bare in mind I'll have 2 three year olds running round my ankles at the time lol Maybe itll be best to recorded it........

Anyways I'll let ya know what she says

No problem with the coat... HE WAS THAT GORGEOUS!!!

And the teeth thing is easily noticed.. i think it took a time for him to decide that... but as a friend of mine said "the only thing that was 'wrong' with him.... HE FIXED!!"

 girls!!!

Have you ever seen this?    It's cool

http://www.alan-rickman.com/photos/hunniford.html

alankisses

Lia

I was rummaging around the RSC site and and found their archive catalogue that lists all the plays that Alan appeared in. LINK here for anyone interested.

Wow, I hadn't noticed the price on the Winter Guest Screenplay.  I got mine on ebay for $14 and it is autographed by Emma and Phyllida!  I don't think there is additional useful information in there, other than those and a few other previously seen photos, maybe a one page introduction.  I'd  have to pull it out and look, but it's a very thin paperback book.

That coat is, is... Oh yeah, I LOVE it!

Thanks a lot for the scan CatsPlay, they were new for me! May I use them for a new wallpaper? With the right source credit, of course (

.

Frieda, Alan had some work done on his mouth between the ending of Private lives and the start of Love Actually in NYC. I wondered if he had in-plants put in. If you listen carefully to his speech it is a bit different, and that little tooth that used to stick out has gone.

Frieda: His teeth look real to me:-)

Hi everybody!

Here the original smile without the awful coat.

http://movies.yahoo.com/shop?d=hv&id=1808404334&cf=premiere&photoid=530047&intl=us

Yeah, I vote "awful" on the coat. Made out of something other than fake fur (the kind my mother has sofa pillows made of), it might be quite nice. I was just thinking he needs a pink fedora with a long feather in it and he could play "Huggy Bear".

But when has this man every been NOT yummy?? Never. Put him a clown suit and it'd be okay.

Lex,

The website I am  referring to is http://www.diary.ru/~QwertyFlo/?&from=0, and no, I was not credited as the source on the specific entry.    I don't claim any ownership to such photos, but this has occured in the past with content that is very specific to my site.  I would like to drop the topic.

Catsplay, awfull coat if you ask me, hihi, but I am used to his taste in clothes. I don't mind anymore (shrug shoulders) - especially as there are always glimpses of hope. He looked great in London in April, didn't he?

It's cute but..........

OMG! Woah! That coat is super!

Hi,

It's me again, the girl who took the blurry photos in Berlin.

I've got this Mesmer DVD. Bought it from ebay USA for 25€. It was the last missing AR DVD in my collection;-). But I can't really warm up to it, I must say. So, I know I won't watch it again and as it would only collect dust in my shelf and it's so difficult to get, I thought maybe one of you wants to have it? Please tell me via email, if you're interested.

Cheers! Always a pleasure to post on this page.

Are you guys making fun of that coat?  I think it's gorgeous and rich looking!  Probably moreso in person.

Alan, Alan, Alan. I wonder what  Stacey and Clinton would do with his wardrobe closet. If he were to travel through Saskatchewan though in mid Feb a coat like that would be good, hell, it would need a hood.Gotta love em. And we do.

At the book sale at our local library yesterday I managed to pick up the tie-in paperback novel of RHPOT for 20p!

A short feature in yesterday's Telegraph mag about relatives acting together in films mentioned TWG "Emma Thompson and Phyllida Law star as a nagging mother and her recently widowed daughter in TWG (1998) - 'so very different from our real relationship' Thompson said"

JK Rowling is appearing on Richard and Judy 5pm Channel 4 on Monday. The blurb in the TV listings mag says: "Those eagerly anticipating revelations here about the 7th and final book's title - even its publication date - may be overestimating the forensic nature of Richard's interviewing skills just a bit. But Rowling is the mistress of the long-range tease, so you never know what clues will be available to the attuned and attentive". Since I don't have a TV, will anyone else be taking notes?!

Camerata, surprised by the coldness he had to buy a coat in Russia...rofl

for the WG photos

OMG that coat, argh lol

Sue,

Love that coat!

Catsplay, as our Russian pal seems quite fond of "borrowing" I had a rummage in her files and found one I hadn't seen before:

Meeresternchen, try this for the Kings Head clip:

http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=9E371017562A0DED

Meeressternchen, those two photos are from the Winter Guest Screenplay book.

Based on the exact pixel sizes, it appears that Qwertyflo lifted them from the scans that I made quite some time ago,

here

and

here

without crediting me as the source, as usual.

Nope, Jessika, the download was fine....Thanks!!!!

bronte: thanks for your help but actually the thing i'm looking for is a transcript of an interview

and this afternoon...  

hikity: sorry i couldn't resist, they're too sweet!!! - LOL 

SUE, thanks for the information and there's no problem with the wrong spell, as you imagine I'm used to that same mistake in my name, I'm glad you corrected that yourself!!

Becky, I can't help you, and another question... that video I talked about (and the one you asked too), it hasn't got image! it's just sound, did my downloaded go wrong?   THANX GIRLS!

Does anyone know of a way to make screen caps of the KINGSHEAD video??? I have tried, and my movie maker won't convert it..    Please Help!!!

Thanks

Becky

 I spelt your name wrong Jessika!

Jessica, that's the tv clip I uploaded yesterday! It is part of a documnetary about the Kings Head Theatre pub in London and that clip are Alan's bits joined together!

Claudia, help yourself to clip.

Hope lots of you manage to get to see MNiRC in NY. It's certainly worth seeing (and my ticket cost £8.00!!).

Hey people, it can sound odd but I downloaded something and I'm not quite sure of what it is.

It's a wmv video of AR talking some play I guess, it calls "MAVCUT" lasts 1:23 minutes and there's a woman talking too... does anyone know?!?!

*blush*

I was so excited at the prospect of seeing the play that I never did read somse of the earlier entries.  I now see that I can easily purchase tickets through ticketmaster.com.

I am truly looking forward to this!

Ali-Pat (or anyone else)---

Can you please provide a link where we can purchase tickets?  For me, London was simply not do-able, but thank God NYC certainly is.

Belated birthday wishes to Ana Julia!  I hope yesterday was wonderful for you! 

sue, I whole heartedly agree about the Maverick interview.  Its fair game once its aired on telly!  Thanks for the file.  Mind if I add it to the site? 

Great news on MNiRC, Em!  Thanks for looking out for us on the news front.  Looks like we're getting a good number of people here that may get to go.  I'm going to try my best but we'll have to see. 

Phew!  Tickets are pretty expensive! 

LurkingFairy has the right idea.....see it at a cheaper venue! 

Juliet, good idea in looping your trip through New York!  I hope it works out for you. 

Thanks for the background on that pic, pat.  Its a sexy pose of him, that's for sure. 

I don't know of anyone that is a member of IMDbPro, ARdent Jan.  It's be nice to find out if it offers any other information on VG. 

I just ordered MNiRC tickets for October 12.  Anybody else going that night?  Maybe we could get a list going.  I remember how cool it was to plan meet-ups during the run of Private Lives in NYC.

hi everybody! could you help me please? i'm looking for a mesmer-interview where alan admitted having been kind of big-headed for it was the first lead character for him - i put my e-mail just in case...

Good Morning to everybody..

just found this: http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270000779762&ssPageName=ADME:B:SSE:1

and I have the "lurking suspicion" that our 2 "friends" have changed their names

Ooops. i forgot to mention that this is just a copy of the play, not the original with Megan Dodds.

Great news about MNIRC finally having its day in NY. I see that it is also going to be in Vancouver on July 22 and 24 at the World Urban Festival. Hmm, never heard of it coming to Canada but hey, i have been away from the computer for 5 days up north camping and fishing. Check it out. Damn, if i only lived 2000 miles to the West, i would be close.

http://www.canada.com/vancouversun/news/arts/story.html?id=b311cfec-94c3-4e01-82f5-0a27b83e1378&p=1

Thank you everyone for the birthday wishes had a very lovely day with friends and family!  Another year bites the dust!

Catsplay--thanks for the Reuters link.  I hope I can get to NY to see MNIRC.  and sl OT please read the Ruby wax book--it is hysterical--you will cry with laughter.  It is also tragically sad as well she had a most bizzare upbringing.  I think her parents were certifiably nuts. 

Reuters seems to have a second version of the MNiRC announcement.  The second version has a direct quote reagrding Rachel from AR,

Quote is on page 2

page 1 of Reuters article

page 2 of Reuters article

Wow, sue, thanks for sharing that.....you're a real ARpal!

Sue, thanks so much for that lovely little clip.

Miriam

Have no fear Hikity, I have returned frm supper (steak sandwich, half bottle of wine, very nice!!) and it is just finishing. Here's the link:

http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=9E371017562A0DED

Doing a search on Villa Golitsyn today, I found this:

IMDb Pro. I don't have a pro account, but in the background in grey you can see it says TVG is filming. Don't know if it's accurate - it shows Perfume as in production.

Oh, Sue, I am sorry to bother you with this - maybe Claudia puts it then into her collection here? Ol Jimmy? At least it's not Hey Jude,

Tomorrow is FRIDAY  

OK I have just started uploading it to Yousendit It says it waill take over an hour!!

Off for tea now!

I don't know if you can on Youtube? I'll try yousendit but it will take for ever as it's about 10mb

Sue, thanks a lot for the interview! Is there any chance to save it???

What's that Hikity? Samuel Beckett plays Jimi Hendrix???

For your info: Michael Gambon on stage again!!

http://www.theambassadors.com/dukeofyorks/sp_p2904.html

Just to let you know I have just bought 5 tix for MNiRC in Edinburgh for the princely sum of £30

I paid £13 for the Sat matinee during the first run and Sue paid even less as she got a last minute return.

But I'm sort of tempted because I was thinking of visiting California that week for my aged mother's 90th birthday and am now wondering if I should go via New York.

If I bought a ticket and decided not to go, I reckon I could pass it on to someone here for the price I paid.

So who else is going on what date?

Oh Blimey my cover has been blown!! Actually grigorisgirl is only on IMDb, I think, after I lost my other name!

sue, I had no idea that you were grigorisgirl!  You are fantasteeek, as well, right?  (just keeping my sues and susans straight)!

Some of you may recall that The King's Head documentary was on TV over here a few weeks ago. I recorded it and have finally edited the clips (badly) together. I know Claudia did not want to put up the clips when the dvd came out  and I quite agreed with her but I feel now it has been shown on TV it's *fair game*!

And may I remind you, Dee and Susan, that they offered the first two rows (and those are not bad seats!!) for 10 Pounds!!

You're right DEE, we did pay £25 with the Q&A, I think we had a bargain there!

Taking my daughter Angelina for a hospital appointment in London tomorrow, after I think we will have a wander around Alan territory, seeing that he is home, and hope for a chance meeting.

Woow you're right it's a bit expensive. When I saw the play in April in London, I paid 39 £ and I'd already thought that it was expensive lol Why I didn't come for the Q&A ? Argh

The non-premium seats (which are actually closer) are only $65 or $45.

Previews are for before the critics get to see a play. They are a bit of a practice run for the Opening/Press night when the critics come and do their worst. Sometimes Preview tickets are cheaper over here but not always. Reviews aren't published during the preview run although sometimes the buzz gets out if a play is going to be spectacularly good (or bad!).

Here's the LINK to the NYT pice on the new production.

I think the letters on Alan chair are the initials of firm supplying props for Hamlet ,being as the photo was taken on the stage of Hamlet.

That's great for MniRC in NY !!! It means that AR will be often there during the play will be played

OK so I have only just seen the teaser for Perfume That you have on this site. Its the same one. It just seemed to go on for longer at the cinema!!!

Can ya delete my post please Claudia

I went to see a film called Hard Candy at the cinema last night and a trailer (of sorts) came on. It was a woman at the sink preparing vegatbales (I think) and a man slowly walkin up to her and gettin really close and nearly kissin her neck. This last about 3 or 4 minutes and youre all wondering whats this. Then she turns and screams. That was all the trailer and apparently it was PERFUME - Story Of A Murderer!!! And all it said was Coming Soon!!!

Also I asked yesterday if anyone knew of a distributor for the US for Snow Cake. Please let me know because I cant find it in the posts!

Thanx

I'm trying to figure out why the 'premium' $150 seats are midway back in the theater.

Also, it doesn't appear you can buy tickets to the opening night 10/15.  It must be VIP only.

Just announced -- MNIRC will play in NYC this year. AR will direct. From NY Times story:

Pam Pariseau and Dena Hammerstein, partners in James Hammerstein Productions, are bringing the play, critically acclaimed in London, to the Minetta Lane Theater in Greenwich Village. Previews are to begin on Oct. 5, with an opening scheduled for Oct. 15. The play is to run for 48 performances, closing on Nov. 19.

Looks like tickets are already on sale.
