If that film of your life was made..

[brockers]

During my not infrequent narcissistic reveries, I'm often left thinking about what to include if a film of my (frankly, quite unextraordinary) life was made. This of course leads me to think which acting genius would be fit to portray my wonderful self. Christopher Walken sprung to mind for his slightly bonkers, other-worldliness, but then I remember Steve Wright (of Radio 2 fame) bagging him, when he asked the same question on his show many years ago.

So I've decided on Sam Rockwell cos he's a similar build, roughly the same age, and he does a good screw-loose psycho. (And he can do proper acting when he's given the role)

Cary Grant ≠ nothing at all like me, but it would be a made in Hollywood film

Carrie Grant or Cary Grant? The latter is dead.

Peter Lorre

Audrey Hepburn. My film, my choice.

 

[Night Train]

Well, being an actor in my spare time I would rather like to play myself in a film of my life, though not the younger years anymore.

Brad Dourif for sure i reckon he'd make my life look more interesting for one

Sid James

This was of course a round about way of finding out what you all look (or think you look) like.

I'm not sure it's going entirely to plan.

I'd like to think that I'd warrant the poise and grit of Judi Dench, or the dry wit of Prunella Scales, but suspect I might end up with the comedic awkwardness of Miriam Margoyles, or Miranda Hart, except the latter is way too tall.

Bernie Ecclestone- he can't act either.

 

[Dayvo]

Bruce Willis - he looks a bit like me!

Don't know if he's got my comic timing, though!

 

[Angelfishsolo]

Val Kilmer

Val Kilmer

...he's welsh?

 

[Angelfishsolo]

Hell no but I can't think of anyone else who even looks remotely like me (He's Human though )

...he's welsh?
