[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

Amanda Donohoe in nothing but blue paint and a giant strap on. Good times, good times.
Was it also your introduction to Hugh Grant and Kristen Scott Thomas?
I'd seen Grant in a bunch of movies before then. In "Maurice" and "Impromptu", I think. KST--yeah, I think "Bitter Moon" was my first exposure to her. It was decidedly odd to see them again in "Four Weddings and a Funeral" afterward.
Ah, Lair of the White Worm....
I keep hearing about this movie. t runs off to check Arrrgggh! It's a Ken Russell! Run for your lives!

It's Ken Russell's tribute to Hammer movies, pretty much. No real-life composers were harmed in the making of this movie.
In this Onion interview, Hugh Grant talks about working with Roman Polanski and Ken Russell.
Oh, that's a terrific interview. Thanks for the link!
Now, Ken Russell is terrific in the mornings. Then he has quite a... "French" lunch, and in the afternoon he's a fascinating director. I had to do a bit in Lair Of The White Worm where I had to pick up a sword and cut someone in half, as one does in a Ken Russell film. And I said, "You know, it doesn't feel quite comfortable doing it this way." And his directorial response was, [slurs speech] "Well, fuck how it fuckin' feels. Do it how I showed you, you fuckin' cunt!" Which is not classic Ingmar Bergman direction.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Maybe he can talk Tim into killing him, though.
That would be the best.
And why again does the other dude from Coupling keep getting work?

Well, I pull for Colin for the friend-of-a-friend factor, but I think Harrington's cuter.
Also, I think he did a passable job as the Americanized Steve, though few could fully live up to John Davenport. It was the Jeff and Jane that were abyssmal failures.
Jack Davenport?
