Barb, AT LAST another KB in Footloose fan! What that boy did to my 16 year old hormones...
Ooooo, and I dig your Ralph Fiennes crush too. Did you see him in 'The Constant Gardener'? He was wonderful, and should've got an Oscar nom IMHO
Oh, honey, I've seen him in *everything*. Even really obscure stuff like "Spider" and "Onegin." Seen him in a couple plays, too. And met him (as I've gone on ad nauseum here about before)!
Right up there in easily the top three days of my life, and I've the photo to prove it (which I also apparently never grow tired of posting):
"The English Patient" was just the one where my admiration for him turned from sheer respect in his acting talent to pure animal lust. Or, I should say - pure animal lust was added to my sheer respect in his acting talent, since that's never changed.
Have you seen him in "Emily Bronte's 'Wuthering Heights'" with Juliette Binoche? YEOW! The first time I saw when he first opens the door to the house when his prospective tenant knocks in the middle of a storm - I about fell off my chair. I actually rented that after seeing TEP, although he was in it before being in Schindler's List.
He did a lovely interview on "Inside the Actors Studio" with James Lipton back in January or February. I know I'm biased, but it was by far the best interview of him I've ever seen and I think the best IAS I've ever seen.
Now, if he'd just have Heath and Jake on. I waited ten years for him to have Rafe on - I really don't want to wait another 10 more for those two.
