It was slightly anti-climatic, but I'm thrilled nonetheless.
Extremely gracious and sweet... and 10 times more handsome in person.
You may all now die of shock that I didn't jump him, pass out, ask him to sign a body part or father my children

Yay!
However, I must say you don't look thrilled!
Neither does he, for that matter.

Posted: 4/7/05 at 12:46amSo happy for you, CJR!

Posted: 4/7/05 at 12:47amI wish there was a smile on his face, but congrats anyway.
re: CJR finally met Denzel.....#5
Posted: 4/7/05 at 12:47amYeah really. There was these women behind me who didn't thrill him (I was first in line to sign/meet and whatnot) because as we were chatting and I was getting my camera ready they pushed in to take a picture with him.

I thought of you, Heather, when he was beating on his chest and his arm muscles were flexing for all they were worth

Awwwe! I still need to SEE the show.... Thank god for friends with the hook up -- that's how I met him tonight.
Yes, the stage door was very crowded. It's set up with a line for people who saw the show and want him to sign playbills, and then a pen on the other side where they have all the people who just want to meet him. He will stay and sign for every single person in the playbill line.... but there's only a possibility he'll have the chance to get to the people in the pen.
He's very endearing though. I wish I'd had a chance to talk to him for more than a minute.

I have to tell you, it was somewhat disconcerting to have his 'fan base' scream and holler like they were in the fan section at the Oscars when he made his entrance - but they eventually settled down. He wasn't what I'd call great - kept slipping, unfortunately, into his 'day job' acting - but it was passable, and the evening DIDN'T put us to sleep like LEAR did last year.
And there WAS that chest beating and muscle pumping

Hey, Im not going because I love the show.... Im going because I want to stare at him for 2 1/2 hours lol
He could read the phone book and I'd probably pay to see it

I actually LIKED his naturalistic interpretation - it made Brutus less of the 'statue' he usually is. But I KNOW he could just sit there and staisfy your requirements - although certain movements may make it all the more worthwhile

*swoon*
You know, I think it took a few hours to set in that I was less than a foot away from him.....

re: CJR finally met Denzel.....#15
Posted: 4/7/05 at 1:30amOh my god YES. He's more gorgeous in person than he is on film and in print.

Posted: 4/7/05 at 12:36pmIt finally *just* really set in. Last night I was all fine and whatnot, now I'm kind of sitting here in shock like ooooh my god. hahaha

re: CJR finally met Denzel.....#22
Posted: 4/7/05 at 12:42pmI just said that it was a pleasure to meet him and that I was a huge fan.... I was first in line of at least 80 people. He thanked me and smiled. I asked if I could take a picture and he asked if I wanted to take it OF him or be in it, I said be in it, he said sure and as we went to take the picture, the woman behind me decided SHE was taking one first -- hence the look on his face in my picture lol
