Subject: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Clinton Hammond Date: 22 Jan 01 - 03:39 PM .. who playes you? I fear I'm stuck with Eric Stoltz... not many other male red-heads in the business around our age... Who plays you? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: MMario Date: 22 Jan 01 - 03:44 PM heck, Clinton - Hair colour would be easy to change... I want to be played by someone younger, better looking and who has a better voice. And change the script. |

Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Troll Date: 22 Jan 01 - 03:49 PM Richard Dreyfus troll ** he looks nothing like me, I just like his style** |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: mousethief Date: 22 Jan 01 - 03:54 PM Somebody tall, half-bald, big tummy, full beard. I suppose the beard could be done in make-up. Who fits this description? I'm not very hip on current actors. Alex |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Clinton Hammond Date: 22 Jan 01 - 03:55 PM MMario & Troll The whole point was to mention people who already resemble you, eiother physically or in mannerisms... Not to say which actors you like or not... LOL!! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: MMario Date: 22 Jan 01 - 03:58 PM sorry Clinton - I guess I missed that part of the original post. All I saw was "who playes (sic) you?" |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Clifton53 Date: 22 Jan 01 - 04:29 PM Hands down, Wilfred Brimley. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Bert Date: 22 Jan 01 - 04:38 PM I think it would be much better if we didn't choose our own. We should choose for others. John Cleese could play Spaw Charlton Heston could play Troll Whoopie Goldberg could play WYSIWYG Robin Williams could play Art Theime Angela Lansbury could play katlaughing Brad Pitt could play Matt_R Hey this is fun - your turn... Bert. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Clinton Hammond Date: 22 Jan 01 - 04:48 PM Brad Pitt?? I'da suggested Matt Fruer (sp?) ya know.. the guy that used to play Max Hedroom.... LOL!!! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: CarolC Date: 22 Jan 01 - 04:57 PM Olivia Hussey when she was younger? (Not that she's significantly older than me, but... you know...) |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Matt_R Date: 22 Jan 01 - 05:18 PM Hmmmmm....Brad Pit? Too old, lol!!
I can see Kathy Bates as katlaughing |

Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Liz the Squeak Date: 22 Jan 01 - 06:03 PM I don't care as long as I have a cleavage you could ski down and ..... Hang on, done this somewhere else.... I don't care as long as I can stunt double for the love scenes with Sean Connery..... LTS |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Amergin Date: 22 Jan 01 - 06:07 PM I don't know why anyone would want to make a movie of my life.... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Lepus Rex Date: 22 Jan 01 - 06:37 PM Hmm. Since I've never seen them let anyone into the movies who looked like me, I guess I'd choose... a shaved orangutan made-up to look like the bastard child of Gibby Haines (of the Butthole Surfers) and Salman Rushdie. Yeah. That's close enough. :) ---Lepus Rex |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Allan C. Date: 22 Jan 01 - 06:47 PM There was never yet an uninteresting life. Such a thing is an impossibility. Inside of the dullest exterior there is a drama, a comedy, and a tragedy. - Mark Twain Twain was not an actor, but there is so much about him that I see in myself. I think I would want him to play the part of me in such a movie. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Robo Date: 22 Jan 01 - 06:57 PM No doubt about it, Clifton53 could star as Wilfred Brimley as well! Me, years ago Bud Cort would have been perfect, but I've aged far better than he. Don't know . . . Guess I'd have to play meself! Rob-o |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Little Neophyte Date: 22 Jan 01 - 07:10 PM Well I'm not too sure Clinton. Any of you Catters who have gotten to know me, I welcome the help here, but I would say off hand........... A blend of Amy Irving & Fran Drescher from The Nanny. Little Neo |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Little Neophyte Date: 22 Jan 01 - 07:12 PM Clinton, are we talking personality here? Because that is what I included. I wasn't just thinking about looks. Little Neo |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Allan C. Date: 22 Jan 01 - 07:15 PM Bonnie. Fran? No! No! No! - Well, perhaps the body...but you certainly do not have her voice or that way-beyond-irritating laugh. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Matt_R Date: 22 Jan 01 - 07:17 PM I was thinking that woman from "Providence" would play a good Bonnie. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Allan C. Date: 22 Jan 01 - 07:18 PM Right on, Matt. Looks and intelligence. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Little Neophyte Date: 22 Jan 01 - 07:19 PM Well Allan, I have actually never seen the show, but I have been told by people who know me well that all the silly things Fran does on the show are things they could see me doing. Guess I should go watch what they are talking about. Bonnie |

Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Allan C. Date: 22 Jan 01 - 08:02 PM LOL, KG! When I was wandering the streets of New Orleans I was stopped by a drunk who mistook me for Garcia. Two blocks away from there it happened again. But, well, they were drunk after all. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: kendall Date: 22 Jan 01 - 08:03 PM Are you accusing me of being alive Matt? According to Spaw, I'm a figment of my own imagination. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Matt_R Date: 22 Jan 01 - 08:04 PM Wow, GUEST, those are some great calls! And hey, I DO look like Ed Norton! He IS me! |

Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: catspaw49 Date: 22 Jan 01 - 08:34 PM Driving into town a couple of hours ago, I asked this to Karen and wanted to know who'd she get to play me. She said, "Well you don't look like him, but I'd pick Gene Hackman." This from the person who knows me best, so I'll go with it. Spaw |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Amergin Date: 22 Jan 01 - 09:26 PM ROFL!!!! Robert Downey, jr as me? LOL!! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Lepus Rex Date: 22 Jan 01 - 09:41 PM Hehehe, Homer Simpson? I'm not THAT dumb (yet), and I've still got SOME hair... But I suppose it's cheaper than renting an ape. :) ---Lepus Rex |

Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: wysiwyg Date: 23 Jan 01 - 02:06 AM FINALLY, a thread I can post in without reading all of it! (I'll read it tomorrow. I promise.) One would hope it would be the Barbie twins, but it will probably be Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen instead. I hate when that happens! ~Susan (AKA Praise) |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Amergin Date: 23 Jan 01 - 02:10 AM Yeah, but you already got Shelly Winters.... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: wysiwyg Date: 23 Jan 01 - 02:21 AM No, Praise did. ~S~ |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: wysiwyg Date: 23 Jan 01 - 02:41 AM I got Whoopi Goldberg! Yes!!! Triplets! I win!! I got Whoopi!!! (Dang I love that Bert!!! Sneaky!!!) Diveristy at Mudcat is on the rise!!! LOL!!! What, Bert, Whoopi the nun or Whoopi the psychic or Whoopi as Guinan or in The Color Purple? Or my luck, the maid in the Long Walk Home... Hmmm, Sugar Dog already posted her stunt double, a link to a picture. Whoopi wouldda made a damn fine Sugar Dog. OK, Whoopi as Sugar Dog, but just her voice!!! cartoon! Spaw, I think Karen just has a thing for Gene Hackman. She gets to play herself, right? Bert = Lurch the Butler, because Barney Fife is out of the question and much too short for me to smack around. ~Kathy Najimmy (Shelley is too flatchested to qualify) |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: GUEST,Roger the skiffler Date: 23 Jan 01 - 05:00 AM Well, I see myself as the young Michael Caine (only with a Brummie accent!) but a casting director would probably think Charles Laughton in Hunchback make-up. RtS |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Dave the Gnome Date: 23 Jan 01 - 05:25 AM Well, I reckon Bill Oddie - provided he shaves his head and gives up twitching - but Mine Host at the local calls me Miyagi Sensei so I guess Noriyuki "Pat" Morita would do as well. Hai! Dave the Gnome |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: GUEST Date: 23 Jan 01 - 06:31 AM Id like to be sigourney weaver, but its unlikely |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: CarolC Date: 23 Jan 01 - 07:00 AM Oh. I thought this was about the person who would play our fantasy of ourself. I see how it works now. Ok, maybe Laurie Metcalf. But if I was a man, I'd want it to be Derek Jacoby. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Clinton Hammond Date: 23 Jan 01 - 07:07 AM not so much fantasy... think more the Hollywood version of yourself... :-) |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: CarolC Date: 23 Jan 01 - 07:14 AM Ok, Clinton, Laurie Metcalf or Olivia Hussey. You pick. Or maybe someone else altogether |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Kim C Date: 23 Jan 01 - 12:09 PM Who's Julianne Moore? (This from a person who only goes to the movies MAYBE twice a year) |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: GUEST,Key Grip Date: 23 Jan 01 - 12:24 PM Julianne Moore |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: harpmolly Date: 23 Jan 01 - 04:12 PM Jane Horrocks is my hands down first choice. My best friend, on the other hand, flattered me past all compare when I asked her and, after looking critically at me for a moment, replied, "Jodie Foster." WHOA!!!! I'll take that compliment any day! I told her she would be a cross between Bernadette Peters and Bette Midler. She was fine with that *grin* Mollificent |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: mousethief Date: 23 Jan 01 - 04:22 PM Nah, John Turturro has too much hair and it's too curly. Alex |

|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Kim C Date: 23 Jan 01 - 04:26 PM Oh, THAT's Julianne Moore. Okay! I'll go for that. And what's wrong with Eric Stoltz, anyway? I think he's Fab! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Bert Date: 23 Jan 01 - 04:31 PM Lurch! Hmmmm. I guess that's the closest so far. |

|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: GUEST,bflat Date: 23 Jan 01 - 05:21 PM Jane Alexander with a Bette Midler overlay. Can that be done with digital remastering? Ellen |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: cowboypoet Date: 23 Jan 01 - 07:21 PM Have to be Kenneth Branagh. People keep coming up to me and telling me I look exactly like him. Truth is, since I'm older, he looks like me. If it was the other way around, I'd play him in the movie. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: wysiwyg Date: 23 Jan 01 - 08:34 PM Well, Bert, I could hardly let you be Thing. I married. ~S~ |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Sorcha Date: 23 Jan 01 - 08:36 PM I guess Mary Tyler Moore kinda works, but lotsa people say Sally Fields or Florence Henderson. The Crazy Mom types........ |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: wysiwyg Date: 23 Jan 01 - 09:07 PM Sorcha, you mean like Kathleen Turner? Was that Psycho Mom? I can't recall the title.... at the beginning she runs over someone? Night, BesBud! Watch my back OK? ~WASANEARWIG |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: ddw Date: 23 Jan 01 - 11:54 PM Have to be Richard Dreyfuss. I used to go in a coffee shop and the woman at the counter kept telling me I looked like him. I couldn't see it at all. Then I watched him as the lawyer in The Dreyfuss Affair and we looked so much alike it was spooky. Of course now he'd have to shave off some hair.... david |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Amergin Date: 24 Jan 01 - 05:48 AM Susan, it was Serial Mom....very funny show... Now I don't see the Robert Downey, Jr thing....he is a bit older than myself, plus I am clean.... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: wysiwyg Date: 24 Jan 01 - 10:00 AM Then you'd have to be the old man in A Hard Days Night. E's very clean, ye know! Yeah, SERIAL mom, that's the one. ~S~ |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: alison Date: 24 Jan 01 - 10:10 AM Can I be Cameron Diaz? please.... pretty please?????? (hell of a lot of wishful thinking going on here.....) worth a try...... Liz I'll fight you for those love scenes with Sean Connery....... hahahaha slainte alison |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Kim C Date: 24 Jan 01 - 10:17 AM People have stopped my uncle on the street and told him he looked like Ernest Borgnine. He doesn't look at all like Ernest Borgnine so I don't know what that's all about... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: wysiwyg Date: 24 Jan 01 - 10:30 AM Borgnine looked a lot different at different ages... could that be it? ~S~ |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Firecat Date: 24 Jan 01 - 10:31 AM Weeeeeellll, at the moment I have black hair so I'd go for Christina Ricci with glasses, but for the early part of my life (i.e. up till 19/11/00) I had blonde hair so I dunno. Claire Danes??????!!!!!! I wouldn't mind snogging Leo Di Caprio! Don't tell my boyfriend!! Firecat PS Anyone else got any ideas? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: GUEST,Matt_R Date: 24 Jan 01 - 10:40 AM I don't know FC, maybe if I had a PICTURE of you, I could give some ideas! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: LR Mole Date: 24 Jan 01 - 10:41 AM Hmm...Elvis, with grey hair and a beard? Well, really, once the grey-hair- and-beard thing is established, virtually anone fom Martin Sheen to Ben Turpin.Only NOT Jim Carrey or Adam Sandler. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: English Jon Date: 24 Jan 01 - 10:48 AM If Alec Guiness was still around, and miraculously 26 then he'd be great for the part but he'd probably take one look at the script and turn it down. Anyway, as long as I get to star opposite Winona Ryder for some of it, I don't really mind. Or Natalie Portman, come to think of it. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Clinton Hammond Date: 24 Jan 01 - 12:53 PM Natalie Portman is a little girl fer cristsakes! Good to know I'm not the only one here with pedopheliac tendancies where she's concerned! LOL!!! Eric stoltz... He's not bad I guess, but he's got a horrible agent... about the only really good role he's ever had was in "Killing Zoey" To help out the movie-challenged... here's a link for you tot he best movie site on the internet.... http://www.imdb.com Use it well my friend... Don't lose your head And oh ya... what's with peoples facination with Sean frigg'n Connery?!?! The last movie he made that didn't stink to high-heaven was at least 10 years ago!?! maybe Finding Forrester will be better, but to me it looks like a cheep-ass "Good Will Hunting" rip off... Sean Connery needs to go away and take a few acting lessons so he's not always the same frigg'n character... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Matt_R Date: 24 Jan 01 - 01:25 PM 19 is a little girl? Geez, what does that make me? |

Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: alison Date: 24 Jan 01 - 10:22 PM Clinton... those eyes.. that accent..... the acting doesn't matter.... lol slainte alison |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Susan from California Date: 24 Jan 01 - 11:05 PM Warning *THREAD CREEP* I LOVED "Finding Forrester". What's not to love, it's a movie about books and basketball!!! I almost applauded at the end. Also very much enjoyed "Chocolat", was disapointed by "What Women Want" OK, back on Point. Who would star as me? I haven't a clue. Until age 30, my Mom always said one of the Hemingway sisters. Now maybe Camryn Manheim... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Metchosin Date: 24 Jan 01 - 11:28 PM my daughters would probably say Dame Maggie Smith, as in the Pride of Miss Jean Brodie, my husband thinks Helen Mirren, but I would probably have to dig up some obscure English character actress, because there aren't any Hollywood types that resemble me. Although I did have "lots and lots of curly hair" like Burnadette Peters at one time, but there the resemblance ends. Are we supposed to choose young ones and try to use special FX to age them or vice versa? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Bill D Date: 24 Jan 01 - 11:57 PM .Lee Van Cleef? ..since I haven't seen a live movie in 10-12 years, I have NO idea who that is..putting it into a search engine now |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Bill D Date: 25 Jan 01 - 12:00 AM hey!! *Grin*...sure, I'll take that!...must be me, but the mirror is nor sure |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: English Jon Date: 25 Jan 01 - 03:28 AM Natalie Portman is 19? I thought she was older. Just goes to show. It's been a few years since they made LEON guys, anyway Winona would be first choice... Jon |
|
Subject: RE: BS: In The Movie Of Your Life... From: Sorcha Date: 25 Jan 01 - 04:05 AM alison and Liz-- you are going to have to fight off my daughter Kate (age 16), not to mention me, for Sean Connery!! I remember him the "way he was" and we both like him better the way he is now..........ooo lahh! Clinton, honey, it ain't the acting ability, it's the APPEAL!! We both LOVE Sam Elliot, and I like Lee VanCleef too, woo hah! Maybe because they all play dangerous men, that are actually safe? Does that make sense? |
