Weird.<br /><br />Richard Burton. Shameless. Same as with Peter O'Toole. They're like two sides of the same coin for me.<br /><br />And I don't <b>loathe</b> Tim Rice as much as I do Webber [who am warming up to]. But isn't it weird that Sondheim and Webber have the same birthdays?Andrew K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01104647944747041277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-10475484736606566862009-11-10T21:48:23.716-05:002009-11-10T21:48:23.716-05:00Wow, I'd like to win Won Bin!Wow, I'd like to win Won Bin!Chris Na Tarajahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06545312034833563234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-49552198730890329482009-11-10T15:49:35.007-05:002009-11-10T15:49:35.007-05:00Joseph Fiennes portrayed Martin LutherJoseph Fiennes portrayed Martin LutherAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-73195248644506654922009-11-10T14:45:43.120-05:002009-11-10T14:45:43.120-05:00Why should anyone want to write these posts when i...Why should anyone want to write these posts when it's so much easier to let someone more eloquent do the job and only come in afterwards to throw two or three additional names in the ring...MrWnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-15954095535635439322009-11-10T14:08:22.321-05:002009-11-10T14:08:22.321-05:00MrW maybe you should write these posts.

Martin Luther (*1483) may not be ...A few additions:<br />Martin Luther (*1483) may not be exactly a movie person, but he was portrayed by Ralph Fiennes in a biopic that also happened to be the final film for the great Peter Ustinov. And Friedrich Schiller (*1759) still has to wait for one of his plays to be turned into a really big film (and has the somewhat unsatisfying distinction to always be considered Germany's second greatest poet and playwright, always behind his contemporary Goethe), but his birthday being a round one (250) should be worth a mention.<br /><br />Two more movie people:<br />Mabel Normand (*1895), comedienne, Chaplin co-star and biopic waiting to be made. (Wikipedia gives her birthday as November 9th, IMDb says it's November 10th)<br />Sylvain Chomet (*1963), director of 'Les triplettes de Belleville', which - Pixar and Miyazaki triumphs notwithstanding - probably still has the best shot to be my choice as the best animated film of this decade.MrWnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-53923394145332034962009-11-10T12:03:31.990-05:002009-11-10T12:03:31.990-05:00Aw, I find it very satisfying that Ann Reinking an...Aw, I find it very satisfying that Ann Reinking and Roy Scheider were born on the same day. <br /><br /><i>You better change the way you're livin'...</i><br /><br />(lol at "I hope not sporadically!")Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09258493877737555910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-62282492638919144562009-11-10T11:43:38.191-05:002009-11-10T11:43:38.191-05:00Burton should have won for 'Virginia Woolf'...Burton should have won for 'Virginia Woolf'.Billy Held An Oscarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09462888920400921139noreply@blogger.com
