Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape  

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

did he die of a brain hemorrhage? I thought it was a hemorrhage in his throat.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It was a haemorrhage after throat surgery. Don't know where it was, though.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

I was just quoting from the Slate article.

From IMDb:

....from a brain hemorrhage at London's Charing Cross Hospital, where he had undergone a routine operation on his neck.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

if you're me, you've also developed a debilitating, lifelong crush on Alan Rickman

Oh yes. TMD gave me my Rickman love, my love as well for Juliet Stevenson, and my love for Neruda.

I hadn't known it was originally a tv production, though. Now I guess I can stop looking for it in widescreen.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

a debilitating, lifelong crush on Alan Rickman

I suffer from this as well, although I don't know that I'd call it suffering, really.

Fell REALLY in love with him in Lee's S&S. It was cemented in Dogma.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb

TMD, all the way. I don't think I'd really paid attention to him before that. I think Robin Hood cemented it, though. Two such polar opposite characters and you didn't think of it as "Alan Rickman playing...."

Because books.

My favorite Rickman, aside from Snape, is probably Colonel Brandon in Sense and Sensibility.
