yes, this is a post completly dedicated to alan cumming. i think he was truly as his best as EMCEE in CABARET, and did a fantastick job as ROOSTER in the remake of ANNIE. i enjoyed seeing him in GOODBYE GIRL remake, but his performance was so-so. so go ahead, try helga, or post your thoughts on this phenomenal person. any first hand experiences with him? has he ever vistited the boards?

Posted: 12/5/04 at 5:41pmI loved him in The Anniversary Party. And other than his performance and John C. Reilly, I didn't love much else about the movie.:) Yay Alan! He MAKES Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion, too!

Posted: 12/5/04 at 6:21pmYup, I've had a first-hand experience with him that I posted on a couple of the other threads. I don't think he likes me too much.

Oh, Beav, I wish it were that simple. I mentioned this somewhere else:
I met Alan Cumming when he was filming Josie and the Pussycats in Vancouver. (Oscar-worthy movie. Do rent it.) Sadly, in my slightly intoxicated state (of alcohol and a chocolate buffet at their hotel), this was our exchange:
Me: *slightly slurred speech* OH! I know YOU! You're The Creepy Guy in all those movies! Right, Rachel? (Leigh Cook - Who had been patiently reminding me who he was while in the ladies room. At this point she's covering her mouth in disbelief.) You scared the SH*T out of me in that Bond movie!
Him: *tense grin*
Me: Sorry. Can I have your autograph?
My friend: We must be really pissing you off right now.
Alan: Enjoy your dessert. *walked off*
If that wasn't bad enough, I was called to work on the Josie set the next week, and he remembered me quite well.
