Happy anniversary and a half Annie.
I'm definitely interested in hearing your review of RK's performance Amanda - but I'm afraid it won't change my mind. I won't be seeing it myself (I want to remember the charming Andre).
Speaking of which.... I saw Greg's 30 seconds of World Trade Center this morning. He's right - his name is on the screen longer than he is! It's a tough movie to watch - but still a very positive one. I wrote a review on the World Trade Center Movie thread. After the film was over a reporter for the Netherlands News Service interviewed me. I opened my mouth to talk and immediately started sobbing! Believe me - the world is watching how this film is being received.

Saw it tonight. Mamie, I agree with your accessment exactly. It is tough to watch, but it is also ... not to sound cliched ... inspiring. It shows the evil and the good that human beings are capable of, with the emphasis being on the good that came out in humanity after the attacks.
People were leaving, after it was over, weeping. Speaking for myself (but feeling I'm not alone here), it's a very therapeutic flow of tears.
As for Greg's brief time on screen, he conveys much through body language.

Aww, yaay for posts from Mamie and Barb and Annie! Haven't heard from you guys here in a bit...
I don't know. I wanted to see United 93, and I did, and boy was I sobbing and was that an experience, but I'm glad I went. I saw a preview for this and...I don't know. I just think seeing the visuals is...not something I...well, want to see, and I don't think I'd be able to enjoy this one like I did United 93.

thanks Mamie 
Norbert Leo Butz quotes about John Lithgow: "He's really clumsy. One of the joys in life is to watch a great big huge man totally wipe out backstage. It takes John about three minutes to hit the floor. It's like watching a Great Sequoia falling gracelessly."

Posted: 8/10/06 at 3:50pmAmanda, I think you mean trailer right? cause when you said preview, I thought of broadway shows and a preview is the show basically. and so I thought you had seen it. but no.

Posted: 8/11/06 at 8:56amWell yes, trailer. Though before you see a movie, you see previews. So I'm not wrong in calling it that.

I feel I must add my love here for a true Prance 
He is a gentleman, a Broadway star and an all around great guy He actually took and signed my color program AND PLAYBILL without me asking for hm to autograph both... He was sooooo kind after I saw him DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS.

Apparently Lucie's not well and will be missing a few shows. I may wait till she comes back; I *really* can't see Richard Kind with Rachel.
I went to the beach yesterday--awesome day, awesome weather, awesome water temp, waves...god I love it. Except for getting very sun burnt and being in pain now

Posted: 8/13/06 at 1:08pmI saw Richard on a few TV shows this weekend and I just can't imagine him as Andre. No matter how I think about, hes just going to be weird in the part. He'll be very different and new audiences will like him, but I just see him doing anything like Greg. He'll probably be very *I don't know* goofy.

Posted: 8/13/06 at 3:49pmHe won't be anything like Greg. Greg's already said that you won't know this Andre at all - he's completely different.

Well, it depends...
Is this before or after you've quoted Rent?
