    Colin Farrell: "There's art everywhere. There's art on the street, there's graffiti; the whole world is buzzing with people trying to articulate their confusions and trying to reach each other through the frivolity of laughter and entertainment, or the depth of soul-searching story, narrative and performance."
    I've never heard this articulated so beautifully.

      The pain and suffering that addiction is so real and so unbelievably heartbreaking. My father always said "One drink is too much and ten is not enough." So true for so many that feel compelled to drink and drink and drink and drink until they blackout or throw up. I know usually starts out as good fun then it quickly turns dark for those that want to push themselves farther than most. Cause they have such hatred for themselves that they want numb their pain or just kill themselves. So tragic and meaningless, what is the point of any of that nonsense. Life is fleeting so fuck it and end it as fast as possible. Legions of lost souls that needed so much more goodness in their lives. Makes me hate everything that contributed to such tragedy.

Ha! Sorry it don't fly with me. That woman is a very unlikable person. She`s a nothing, named queen of scream and thats about as good of and actress she is. She never got the big roles because of the big ego she has and plain and simple she sucks at acting. She`s too manly to be a leading lady and very ruff around the edges. I don't like her I didn't or could not watch this person that really thinks shes something. She`s gross and crude and nothing but a B list actress and no one should feel sorry for her. She`s fine and always will be. I never watched any of these Variety interviews its not as though any of the actors are fine and polished and your going to learn anything from them.

    So funny…I lived in LA for sixteen years and worked near the 3rd street Promenade in Santa Monica. I had the opportunity to meet both of these wonderful people at different times almost in the exact same place. Early in Colin’s career, he’d hang out on the Promenade to simply meet people. He’s a social guy. I was walking towards him and he just said hello and I stepped over to shoot the breeze. Just a ten minute conversation about LA and how it’s so different than Dublin. I’m Irish too so we just talked about that. A few years later, in the same general area I am waiting in line at the cinema and Jamie Lee is in front of me with a friend. Some obnoxious tourist started bothering a guy in front of Jamie and she stepped up and told him to Eff off and leave him alone. She was cool AF and exactly as you see her here. Warm, friendly and lovely. She talked to all of us in the line and kept us entertained until the box office opened. Good people, both.

He liked the expression for someone being wealthy as, “loaded”…He liked my usage of what’s typical for US residents, but not for a newbie Irish bloke. I like the UK’s choice in slang for money too. “Quid” is one.

    Colin Farrell is so unbelievably talented and he has a deep appreciation for life. Seeing art and artists for joy they bring others. Jamie Lee Curtis has done such a massively wide range that most actresses will never match. Her humor and her sincere appreciation for not underdogs, but overlooked champions. All so inspiring that we all go through life doing the daily grind. That most of the time we overlook so many beautiful things and brilliant people. I would love to see that attitude end and everyone go through life feeling like they belong anywhere.

Colin is a man fully realized, and he broke my heart in "Banshees', with his hurt and bewilderment at being "dumped so beautifully, painfully portrayed. He is an eloquent advocate for the presence of art in the ordinary as well as the extraordinary. Jamie Lee as always a class act ☘☘
