PfeifferTheFace Needs Your Help to Keep Growing…

Michelle Pfeiffer

If you are a regular visitor, you should know that this site have been online since June 2, 2002 (with a year off in the middle). Since that time PfeifferTheFace’s visitor-ship and traffic have both grown enormously.

Currently we are hosted at  Fan-Sites.org —thanks Gertie— so the site can go on growing with no problem of space (remember that it’s been uploaded only around 25% of my entire personal collection about Pfeiffer at the time).

Why should I donate?

Because it will help to the site can go on growing… because I’m paying the domain name. PfeifferTheFace.com… (paid every year by me) … and becuse althought you know that my volunteered time is always free it wouls be a good incentive to keep working… of course I’m not counting the hours which I use during my work-time, my friends-time, my partner-time, etc.

I know I love and enjoy working on the site, it is my project and it is made with all my love for Michelle Pfeiffer and her Pfans. However, pictures, magazines, articles, interviews, covers, movie-programs, posters… and almost the whole rare/old stuff which I use buy bidding on EBAY and which I use uploade and update every day COST MONEY.

To date I have funded these of my own pocket, and you can believe me when I tell you that it’s been (and it is) a lot. For maintaining this site and getting every new picture, magazine… etc, finally my savings vanished.

That is why I ask for you to donate a small amount of money so that PfeifferTheFace may continue to entertaining and enjoy to you all month to moth with new features and stuff. My only conclusion here is if I don’t get a enough amount every month, I’ll sadly have to say “good bye” very soon.


So if you ask yourself “Why should I donate”, you can find the answer everyday when you are entering the site and discovering all the new stuff online…You can see the list of people who unselfishly are supporting this site, so you can be here, enjoying with us [click on here]

    You’re making an excellent job for all of us Pfans from the globe. You can count on me.

  • Fran (author) said:

    hey Tachu, thanks a lot for your donation… it means a lot! Really.

    You know, to maintain the site with new stuff and the time to do it is too much… so I’m so sorry, but if people don’t help… I’LL HAVE TO SAY GOOD BYE!

    I think it is just… for me and for you all.

  • Dennis said:

    You can count on me too!!
    Please send me an E-Mail reminder on monday, because tomorrow and on the weekend I’ll still have lots of work and I don’t want to forget it.

    You’re really doing a great job. Unfortunately in the last weeks I wasn’t able to be very active here, but I really honor your work, you can believe me that, my dear friend!

  • Sunfire said:

    Want to donate, put this is not in english.

  • Ramses said:

    Francisquito mi niño, mandame un email con la forma que se te puede enviar algo de pasta, un abrazote!!!

  • Fran (author) said:

    Thanks guys for all your support! You can do the donation clicking on the button of Paypal “DONATE”…

    Thanks a lot once again…

  • Tim said:

    Damn Fran, I totally forgot to donate last time. It was last year, around March, I still have our emails. I was thinking, ok next month, I’ll spend less money, and I’ll send it then after I have some to spare. Yea then I forgot.

    But this time I’ll really donate and I know how to use paypal now! I will donate sometime in the summer. For realz. I won’t forget.

    lol you know, Michelle Pfeiffer’s people should really let her know to donate. I mean she could take “pennies” out of her account and send them your way and your site will be set for life plus you could probably even set some aside for a trip to Tahiti.

    But no seriously, I will donate, during the summer, I promise!

  • Sunfire said:

    Was able to donate today. It’s not alot, but I hope it helps. I so enjoy this website. It gives me a bit of sunshine on my gloomy days. Keep up the great work Fran and when I can I will donate.

  • Tim said:

    Hey Fran, I made huge updates on my site:

    http://timw.405.googlepages.com/home

    (I put them in the bottom of the page)

    So we can use it in this time of need. Now that Cheri is coming out, gossip blogs everywhere have people commenting on how she’s had work done, and pulling up crazy sites like “makemeheal.com” to say she had plastic surgery.

    Anyway, I updated my site to refute those claims, and added a little more material in general. If we could all use the site when we encounter those negative comments about her, it could help shut those people up.

  • Fran (author) said:

    Tim!! I really love your work on it!!

    OMG!! Those pics of Madonna!! I can’t believe it!! heheheeh

  • Elsa said:

    Thanks a lot Tim for your work ! I can’t believe how ugly looks Madonna !!

  • Tim said:

    You’re welcome Elsa : ) It’s all for Michelle haha. And yea, Madonna has been looking scary. And since I don’t have any personal agenda against her, I actually purposely chose to show the good pictures. There were so many more that were downright heartpounding.

  • Tim said:

    Fran, the galleries are saying “fatal error” when I try to click into them. Like for example, when I click images, Red Carpet, and then in there try to choose a year, it says “fatal error.” I don’t know if it’s just my computer or something is glitchy with the site.

    (PS is it ok that I leave a message like this here or should I email you? I don’t know what you check more often, your comments or your email).

  • Tim said:

    Ok, they don’t say fatal error anymore today, I guess it was just my computer.

  • NICOLAS said:

    I will participate Fran to keep this site growing but is there another way to do it without paypal ?( I had bad experience with paypal – piracy experience – and I don’t want to give them my card number ) …

  • FrankieD said:

    TIM, many congratulations on amazing work! You are such an artist and not ‘tarded’ like some of those feeble plastic-work webmasters have displayed.

  • tachu said:

    Thanks for posting, Tim.
    I’ve already read some of those comments full of crap, and I put a link to your web. I hope you don’t mind me doing that. When linking, I saw the new info about Madonna, etc. Thanks for your excellent work.

  • Marc said:

    Hola Fran, también cuenta con mi donación.
    There is no doubt all your great work and the amazing pfeiffer web page we can enjoy every day deserve it! Thanks

  • Dennis said:

    @ Tim:
    well, even the dumbest idiot should, after visiting your great site, see, that Michelle is all natural.
    Even now and then I have to talk to people,who say,that Michelle had a nose-job,her lips done and a face lift. I always show them, that Michelle looks like a 50 years old woman, but she’s got great features, that make her soooo beautiful.
    In the future I’ll just give the link to your page to those people and safe my words and nerves ;-)
    Thanks for your great work.

    she mentions us the PFANS

    plus talks about a project that may start in the fall!!!

  • laura said:

    sorry it said erroe so i kept trying

    I have donated money before and i hope when i EVER HAVE MONEY that i can do it again!! I know it must be hard for you fran to do all this work which u may feel we dont appreciate but we do

    well i know I DO

  • Sandy said:

    Hey Fran, I’ve just donated and hopefully will be able to do more soon. This is the best Michelle site and would be very sad to see it go.

    Hey Laura I have just read that article too and was V Excited when I saw that about the new project she may start in the fall. Hope we hear more about it soon.

  • Sunfire said:

    Fran: I donated last week. Sorry I couldn’t give more. The forum has been a part of my life every day and I look forward to it. Please everyone help Fran.

  • Dennis said:

    @laura: Thanks for the link and the article. I do believe,that Michelle doesn’t care for her pfans (whatever the reason may be.). She doesn’t care about the buzz around her and her “hollywood alter ego”, so why should she care about the pfans, who love her for being what she deoesn’t care for?!

  • Dennis said:

    She’s all about her family. Acting is her job…her family is her passion. It’s maybe sad for us to hear, but it’s good for her, if she got this opinion, that she doesn’t have to care about the public, to let her career go,if the time comes to do so. So she’ll never end up as a Norma Desmond.

  • tachu said:

    I don’t mind if she cares about pfans or not, but I feel upset because she calls them -us- ‘trekkies’, in a despective way, in a public interview. It’s not very elegant to say that things to the people that admire and follow her.

  • Dennis said:

    well, “Trekkies” are the Fans of Star Trek, who are extreme fans. I think she just compared it to this. It was more a question of her…

  • tachu said:

    Yes, Dennis, I know what the trekkies are, as I know what she was really refering to, and I don’t like it too much. She usually isn’t rude with anybody. Someday she had to split and be a bit rude with somebody, and it became that it was us, sad pfans.

  • adelutza said:

    I don’t think she meant to be rude with anybody Tachu. But it was probably very stressful for her with all this Cheri promotion and a lot of journalists were rude with her and asking all these age questions. I would’ve been furious if people I’ve never seen in my life would start asking me “how does it feel to be old?”.I would be content if she continued to make movies and see her up on the big screen.It’s not like I’ll ever meet her or anything like that anyways.

    I saw the movie on Friday and I liked it. It did a pretty good job considering it ran on only 76 screens. She’s very very good in it, but I didn’t like Rupert that much to be honest.

  • tachu said:

    I’d love to read your review, but I don’t know how we’ll be able to do it now. Maybe you can comment it here.

    About Michelle’s misstep. You can be sure it is us, the Pfans, who had never ask a question like that, and we would never do it. But she bears bad journalism, and doesn’t say a thing, paparazzi, and she doesn’t get rude, bad agents, and she keeps quiet, bad producers, and doesn’t insult them, and now, they talk to her about pfans she doesn’t even know, and she says ‘like trekkies’’I have Puh-fans’?!! Come on! I thought she knew better… Anyway it’s obvious that the reporter reads pfeiffertheface. I would like Fran to get paid for that. Or recognized, at least.

  • Dennis said:

    Get Fran paid for waht? from whom? The reporter?
    I also think the comment of Michelle wasn’t nice, but honestly, it doesn’t surprise me. I really thought,that she doesn’t care much about her pfans. The people around her (her public assistant,etc) know that and behave like that. At least that is what I experienced when I tried to get in contact with Michelle before the world premiere of Cheri. I was upset and it really made me sad. I went to Berlin anyway and you were able to read,what I did to get a glimpse of her, but because of that experience, I know how less she cares about pfans and so those lines of her didn’t surprise me at all.

  • Dennis said:

    but I still love her acting skills and the way she inspired me my whole life and still does. Everybody who knows me links me with Michelle.They all know how much she means to me and how much I care about her, but I know, that Michelle will never even recognize me nor will she care about me (and the other pfans).But I agree with you tachu: There’s no need to be rude.

  • tachu said:

    I clearly remember how sad you came back from Berlinale. I think you also have bad luck, and a fierce competition from eBay-autograph-catchers
    .
    My point is that I don’t bother if she cares or not about us, I suppose she doesn´t, and I’m a bit sad for it, but I like her because she fights for her privacy. So I have a little conflict here. The real problem for me was the terms of her answer, as you say.

    But it’s been hours since I read it, and now I have changed my feelings a bit, because I don’t know the exact context of the interview, if the reporter was ‘fair’ or a little ‘agressive’ or ‘manipulative’. It’s so easy to damage a movie-star image for the press…Anyway, she manages herself very well under press pressure, and that’s the reason why I found her answer unusual and a bit rude. But I’ll give her the benefit of doubt, she deserves it. Maybe you are right and she didn’t use that words in a despective manner.

    And previously, I was refering to the reporter, of course. It seems to me that this person used this web as a source for the interview, but it won’t admit it anywhere.

  • FrankieD said:

    It is a paradox. Michelle Pfeiffer has said it was always her dream to act in movies; and if one is to have any amount of continual success that demands a certain amount of public accolade. Whether actress or movie star, the PUBLIC dictates how long one can sustain a career in that field.
    I know being recognized by strangers can be flustering and embarrassing, but she is an actress and can at least act gracious to the public who trekked out to an obscure theatre miles away from convenience to see the flawed “Cheri”.
    P.S. did I mention that I trekked out to an obscure theatre miles away from convenience to see the flawed “Cheri”…?
    At least when Garbo shrank from society it was intended for good, and not intermittently, expecting a soaring public outcry of support upon each waning return.
    Yet it is understood Pfeiffer is not ungrateful for her success or her “pfan” following; because she is so pragmatic, I believe she would just quit entirely. She KNOWS she is no longer the mega-hot-star she was fifteen years ago (let’s face it, she was the late eighties/early nineties Angelina Jolie), and knows that any resurgence will be a “quick” flash of notability, and then she can disappear for a while. That’s not necessarily always THE deal, it’s HER deal. We’re just going to have to accept the fact that it’s going to be a while between films, she can’t bring herself to shake the hand and kiss the baby of every clamouring fan, and the homelife and children she has attained IS top priority. And, honestly, if she didn’t care about those latter essentials SO, so much, we wouldn’t love her quite So, so much.
    Apologies for the rant.
    Fran please know that I am donating what I can very soon, though I will always wish it could be more.

  • pfan_1974 said:

    When I read the article I firstly thought that the jouralist was making fun of us, yes, P-F-A-N-S! and also He was very rude(aggressive) to Michelle. She seemed pretty stressed about all those stupid questions and promoting more than ever. so Im really sorry for her. Just take a break, Michelle! I think you need some energy.

  • laura said:

    cheri has done quite well for only being on about 75 screens though i hope it comes out in more screens soon otherwise it will be seen as a fail!!

    And I think michelle was surprised to hear she has fans that call themselves pfans… i dont think she was being rude but more like WOW I HAVE FANS THAT GIVE THEMSELVES A NAME i think she is shocked that she has people that like her that much…

  • bond said:

    Haha….well….in my opinions….it’s the interview person who transfer this word “Pfans” to her, and she actually never understand it or heard that before, so it’s totally NEW to her.

    When we calling ourself as “P-F-A-N-S”, for people who doesn’t know anything about it, it actually sound no different to “Trekkies”.

  • adelutza said:

    well it’s about promotion as well.In my city, I never saw a trailer at the movies, ever, I was even sure it’d not even going to play in my city. And then, suddenly it did. But none of the people I met at the theater knew about the movie at all. So I expect it to do much better next week.
    The problem is about the film. The voice-over is completely unnecessarily in my opinion. And then, Kathy is so laud it makes you shrink sometimes. And Rupert – I think the chemistry is better off screen then on-screen

  • Tim said:

    You know, her calling us “trekkies” is sort of offensive, but I have to admit, we uhh… we kind of ARE. I mean, I know I am at least. I like her more than a healthy level for a person my age, haha. At least I’m self aware, right? But hey, you know, even though I like her work and her off screen persona and especially, her looks, it is still on a very superficial level. I could meet her and maybe we wouldn’t have even enough human chemistry to be friends. So when us pfans like her, we don’t even know if we REALLY like her. We only like the image of her.

    So for her to say that she “doesn’t like” us is pretty valid, because she doesn’t know us, and we don’t know her. (Not that she said that in the interview). And I’m sure every star has a following of “trekkies” like we are for her. And that may or may not be a good thing.

    I mean when Personal Effects came out, even I, one of the few people who loved The Deep End of The Ocean and I Am Sam, despised the movie. Now if her entire career was full of “Personal Effects” you can see how quickly I would turn against her. My “love” for her is still purely superficial.

    So I can see why she doesn’t say that she loves her fans, because there is no solid connection. When a celebrity dies, everyone kind of cares because it’s like a member of the family died (that’s how I felt when the Asian star, Anita Mui, passed away). But is that love really real? Or was I just in love with an image on screen? I’m thinking it’s the latter.

    Finally, I think her deeming us as trekkies is at least more honest than when chicks like Christina Aguilera says she loves her fans and then when she’s up close to them, she reacts like a total b****. But yea, I think MP should choose her words better next time to avoid us having these negative debates about her.

    But you know, I think we’re a sensitive crowd. We nitpick at every little thing she says, and we know she’s already so careful. Imagine if we were fans of Sharon Stone. My god, we would flip out at almost every syllable that woman utters. Or imagine if we were big Megan Fox fans. We would be constantly disappointed by the genuinely retarded statements she makes.

  • Annie said:

    I think it’s nothing. We are Pfans, and we like being that, as long as being that brings us happiness, there’s no reason to get upset. Michelle brings me so much laughter and I love watching her movies (or just her photos). That’s enough, she a celebrity, what more can we expect? Her coming to our houses and talk to us?……Come on, that’s impossible.

    She has a life of her own, she has a family that she cares for, that’s the most important thing in the world to her. She has such a great husband, she can even put her CAREER on hold for them, I doubt she has time to care about us. Think of it this way, if we were really famous, and the press are asking us so many annoying questions, like” R U taking on a toy boy?” “How does it feel being old?”…..We’d be so stressed, and we would want to share time with friends and family, we won’t use the free time to answer fan mail or check out Pfan website about us. So, you know I understand her, besides, I don’t really think she meant it in a bad way, I think mostly, she was just surprised that she has so many fans who call themselves “pfans” lol :)

    http://www.omaha.com/article/20090629/ENTERTAINMENT/706299976

    Look,look at the title of the article (the same one). so we are now official as Pfans. lol pfunny

  • Annie said:

    Michelle hates interviews, doesn’t she? Is she still in NY? I kinda hope promote of Cheri would be over soon, cuz it just keeps her more and more stressed. I’m actually glad we’re now official PFANS.
    Do you guys think she meant that comment in a bad way? Cuz it says “you can hear a million pfans hearts breaking” But I honestly didn’t think it was bad, I thought she might meant in in a more funny way, it wasn’t really offensive, it was true, and it wasn’t serious.

  • pfan_1974 said:

    http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/06/26/AR2009062601690_Comments.html

    I personally think The Washington Post should fire this jerk. THE WHSHINGTON POST? shame on you!

  • tachu said:

    Annie, nobody here is asking that she cares about us, answer fan mail or check pfans websites. It’s not about that. But I think you are right and she didn’t mean it in a bad way, more in a funny, surprised way. It’s the reporter words than manipulate the perception of the interview. And since that reporter READS this site, he must be laughing aloud at us.

  • tachu said:

    Very interesting comments in that link. Thank you very much, pfan_1974!
    May I repeat it to make sure everybody reads it?

    http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/06/26/AR2009062601690_Comments.html

  • tachu said:

    Thank you for your review, adelutza. I’ll give mine as soon as I see the film.

  • Elsa said:

    Thanks a lot for the link pfan_1974, now we can say that our missunderstanding about what Michelle said on pfans came from that bad reporter who didn’t derserve to interview her. He certainly tried to make wha
    No wonder she has enough of interviews sometimes!

  • Elsa said:

    He certainly tried to turn what she said into a cold answer but I’m sure she didn’t mean to be rude she was just surprised to have fans because she doesn’t think about stardom so it makes sense she doesn’t really think about us and I mean she’s not gonna wake up a morning and think : ‘how many fans do I have ?’ lol she’s not that superficial and has more important things to think about.
    I agree with you all.

  • adelutza said:

    If the “trekkies” read this comments they would feel insulted that we think that is so bad to be called a “trekkie”. They are proud to be trekkies so I don’t understand why everybody felt so insulted by this. The reporter was pretty bad but I’ve read worse interviews then this one. At least it acknowledged the existence of pfans.

  • tachu said:

    You can count me as a ‘trekkie’. So not direct insult here. I’ve seen the TV series, the films, the novels, even the comics,… I repeat, it’s the way the term it is used,near despective, because it could be unterstood like ‘freaks’.

  • Jackie said:

    I really don’t think Michelle meant her comments in a bad way. First of all, she was probably irritated by that idiot reporter first comment to start out the interview. Does she look like when she was in her 20′ or 30’s? No. But for a person being 51, she looks damn good. Some People in their 40’s don’t even look as good as she does at 51. Hopefully, she shrugs of dumb comments like that.
    I had a chance to see Michelle during the taping of David Letterman.
    And she was very nice. When she finished her interview which on TV we don’t see the scenes during the commercials, she was very nice and when she finished her interview, she stepped down and came foward towards the audience and waved hello to everyone with a big smile before she left. And I can tell you, I was in the front 3 row back. And saw her very close when she came and waved, she is still looking great at 51. When she arrived at the Sullivan Theater, she smiled and let people take pictures of her and she did not look bothered. I was standing outside for 1 hour waiting to attend the taping and the guards were the only ones making people move away from the area. Celebrities are like anyone else. They have good days and bad.

  • Jackie said:

    I’d like to add that I have met some celebs such as Jennifer Lopez, Lindsy Lohan, Gloria Estephan and Ricky Martin. JLo was stuck up. Someone commented on how they liked the outfit she was wearing and JLo rolled her eyes at the person. I was at Larios in S. Beach and Gloria Estephan walked in with husband Emilio, the restaurant went nuts over her and calling for her and she said hello but in a serious fashion. Ricky Martin I met a few times. Some times he was really nice, the other he was a bit serious. These are all regular people who just happen to be in the limelight. Michelle is no different. I’m sure there are days that she can be very nice, and days that she just does not want to be bothered. That does not stop me from liking her work and from the persona that she is. She is not an attention seeker like some of these celebs and is a respectable proven actress.
    And it is no reason for a reporter to give Michelle or any other celebrity grief.

  • FrankieD said:

    True “trekkies” migrate from miles around to visit conventions and movie premiers about Star Trek, dressed as their favorite character and even invoking said character in communication with anyone they meet…
    It’s one thing to go out dressed as Catwoman for Halloween…But has anyone dressed up as Claire Spencer to go to see Cheri…?
    No? okay I guess that was just me.

  • adelutza said:

    I did wear a red dress FrankieD but I had to leave the piano at home, they wouldn’t let me in the theatre with it :-)

  • tachu said:

    Good idea FrankieD. I’ll aply Vulcan eyebrows on my face for my next Pfeiffer movie. If she is around, I’ll even say her hello with the vulcan salute.

  • pfan_1974 said:

    adelutza, what do you think of pfeiffer’s oscar chances? i mean not winning, but nomination.

  • adelutza said:

    Hard to say pfan_974. I think her performance was really good and having read the novel as well I can say it captures what Colette intended. There are a few small scenes when she’s absolutely brilliant,
    ( and I’m not talking here about the big scenes), her acting is so natural that it doesn’t even look like she’s acting.
    I haven’t seen a better female performance this year yet but it’s still early for awards season.

    But to get a nomination you need more than that and it depends if Miramax will campaign for her and she herself will get out more come Oscar time so Academy members actually remember she was in a movie.
    She sometimes looks like she doesn’t really care and in order to win first you have to want to. I have hopes but I try to not get to excited because it’s going to be too sad if it doesn’t happen.

    I’m looking forward for the DVD – there are scenes in the trailer that aren’t in the film, very weird.

  • pfan_1974 said:

    Your review is my favorite so far. especially this part – [...her acting is so natural that it doesn’t even look like she’s acting.] I love natural acting style!

    Thank you so much for your answer, adelutza!

  • FrankieD said:

    @ Adelutza— actually this was (for me) the MOST ‘theatrical’ acting I have ever seen her done, I think…! I grew weary of the parts where she, as a character, ups that languid, purring voice for all of her ornately written dialogue…I was hoping she (as the brilliant actor she his) would have more colors and notes to her voice. I thought the few (too few for my taste) private acting moments were her most touching; the parts WITHOUT any dialogue or where the exchanges where NONVERBAL the most captivating and truthful.
    I may get a backlash for saying this,but (deep breath), I thought her performance in I could Never be Your Woman had some better work in it…By “better” I guess I mean more emotionally natural and thereby touching. (the car scene where she breaks up with paul rudd the first time? WHAT LOVELY WORK SHE DID!!!! It was heartbreaking to me)
    PS i bet you looked BEAUTIFUL in your red dress, Adelutza with or without that Steinway!!!

  • tachu said:

    Well,I like what adelutza says about Michelle performance, but in the last clip Fran has posted, I have the same impression that FrankieD had watching the film. So I’ll wait to see the whole movie to make my mind about nominatios possibilities.

  • adelutza said:

    I understand what you are saying FrankieD and you are right ( and lot of the critics say the same ). But this is how the part is written. There was a lot of theatricality in the comportment of courtesans of that day. I think that’s where the brilliance comes from, because she captured both sides, the way she was in public and the way she was in private. Have you read the book? In the book it’s always a dialog between what she says and what she thinks. It’s hard to translate that on the screen,
    In any case it’s a great role to have at 50, Oscar or no Oscar. I really don’t care very much about it either , but that would motivate her to work more, maybe.

    I won’t comment on “I Could Never Be Your Woman”. That is the worst film she’s done in my opinion.

  • adelutza said:

    @Tachu

    I can say from now on I will never watch a movie clip before I actually get to see the film. I saw so many clips from Cheri , almost half of the movie, really. The trailer is enough. When the movie started it felt like I’ve already seen it, it didn’t have any surprises for me at all. Not good.

  • tachu said:

    I’m afraid we both think the same about movie clips… And even so it’s difficult to resist and not to see trailers from a movie we are interested in. Producers and distributors nows it, so they bombard us constantly…
    I can’t wait to see the film to have a properly opinion about Michelle performance, and I don’t care too much about awards, I think to be fifty and have work as an actress in Hollywood is a prize in itself.

    But I do care about Hillary Swank getting her third Oscart this season. It scares me the most. I can’t stand Hillary Swank, can’t-stand-Hillary-Swank…
    Anyway, great trailer for an Oscar-movie, Amelia opens in Octuber, great date too. http://popwatch.ew.com/popwatch/2009/06/amelia-trailer.html

    @ adelutza—I completely understand the affectation of the public and private life, but I felt it was too “one-note” throughout. And, Yes I have read both Cheri novels in preparation for the film release– all the while DESPERATELY wanting to play Cheri in the film… and, now that I have seen the entire Rupert Friend performance…call it sour grapes, but I WISH I had been cast in that part!!!

    At first I didn’t like Rupert Friend in the part of Cheri, but he delivered a subtle performance, that ain’t too bad.

    I dont think she was rude, her answer was correct and logical. Call trekkies to her fans is not despective¡

    Michelle is a human being and not a machine, as I always say, I respect her because I think she is an intelligent person, brilliant at her work and she is a strong person who can be well in all situations (but there more people like her in this world)and has moral values.

    We appreciate her because we feel connected to her in some aspects but I appreciate her desire of privacity, I like her for this reason too.

    And I think, as she said in that interview, that Jeff Bridges is one of the best actors of all times (and he probably never will win Oscar)

    I know from one catalonian journalist (that met her in France during the promotion of Baker Boys movie) and had friendship with her, that she is very nice person and she invited him to dinner with er personal assistant). And this journalist is a great person, too.

    Finally, Hillary Swank won’t win a third Oscar but probably will be nominated. Penelope Crup won’t be nominated

    I don’t think Michy’s comment was disrespectful, I think the interviewer kind of threw her a curve ball by just suddenly announcing that the pfans had really made a presence. I’m sure she’s very aware of her fans and does appreciated them, but it is a little weird for an actor or actress to know that they have an entire community and website build completely around what they do professionally and personally.

    Besides, her Trekkie comment was cute. As a Trekkie I thought it was cute anyway.

  • Tasha said:

    i don’t think she ment it in a bad way and was jus kinda thrown off guard with that comment. and trekkies are people who love star trek, and we love michelle so it’s not that bad a thing to say! i mean, imagine you were her and someone you’d never met before said to you that you have fans who call hemselves “pfans” – wouldn’t you find it kinda odd?

    and i really hope hilary swank doesn’t win a third oscar too!
