    _While You Were Sleeping_ is my top 1 RomCom of all time. I can still recite every line of the movie from start to finish. I developed a celebrity crush on Bill Pullman since then, which got reinforced after seeing _Casper_ and _Independence Day_ back to back. To me, he is still the best movie president ever and had the best speech. He has aged like fine wine, this man!

    I love Bill Pullman. I was privileged to meet him backstage at the Kennedy Center after his perfomance in "The Subject was Roses". He was terrific on stage. In person he was warm, charming and very down to earth. He's from Montana and I had visited there. We talked about trout fishing. We also discussed one of my favorite movies he starred in, called "The Zero Effect". He was the kind of man who you'd like to have as your neighbor.

    I think one of my favorite Bill Pullman lines was in the 1986 comedy "Ruthless People" where he played the dim-witted Earl Mott. When Carol (Anita Morris) finished laying out her blackmail plan and he smugly declare "Yeah, then we're off to Haiti." to which she replied, "That's Ta-hi-ti!" 😂
