Jan. 30th, 2004 05:14 pmWent and saw Calendar Girls last night. It was entertaining. Gotta love british comedy. Took me forever to figure out that the husband was Edward Rochester in Jane Eyre (A&E). Drove me up the wall for about an hour trying to make that connection.
Was very impressed by the previews for "The Clearing." Mainly because Robert Redford is actually playing across from a leading lady that's *gasp* almost his age! Only seven years difference, which isn't that big of a stretch, unlike most of his roles. I mean in "The Horse Whisperer" there was a 23 year gap, "Up Close and Personal 21 years, and "Indecent Proposal" was 25 years. At least this is within a decade.
Robert Redford was born in 1937. That number just seems wrong somehow. I mean, the thirties?! He can't be older than my dad. Although, there have been moments in some of his movies where he reminds me of my dad. So, that got me thinking, and since I'm bored (and procrastinating) I decided to check out IMDB
Same age as my dad you get:
Gimli...I mean John Rhys-Davies
Jerry Springer (Who shares the same birthday and year as Stockard Channing...huh?!)
Rutger Hauer
Jimmy Page
and Roger Daltrey (Guess it was a good rock and roll year)
Same age as my mom you get:
Barbara Hershey
Diane Weist (Who my mom looks at least a decade younger than)
Sally Struthers (only made up for by the fact that Terry Pratchett was born the same year)
Bernadette Peters
and Rhea Perlman (A good year for short, curly-haired, assertive women, maybe?)
This pointless entry was brought to you by the letter M and the number 0.
