Day 260-Tim Curry Birthday Double Feature
Day 260-Today is Tim Curry's 73rd birthday and I celebrated in his honour by watching these 2 movies.
1) Clue! This movie. When I saw this as a lid, I died laughing at all the weirdness and what makes it so much funnier is Tim as Wodsworth. His delivery and the way he plays with words and actions makes everyones reactions all that much more hilarious. It mustve been hard to work with hi, trying to keep a straight face during scenes. The movie itself is so quotable and memorable but only in cult status form it seems. I love how they have multiple endings and I read once that different theaters ran the different endings! How mad is that?!?!?
2) Charlie's Angels. While maybe not his most famous movie, he was right awesome in this as the evil corporate guy, up to a point where the plot somewhat changes. HE looked as though he was having fun on the set and with these girls, its hard not to see that.
I had a chance to meet Tim Curry at a convention and I have to say I was quite emotional and had to get composed before seeing him. The first time I had seen him was in Legend (my step cousin's sister was obsessed with the movie...because she liked unicorns...she was little), though at the time I had no idea. So then I see Clue and then put the two together. I have seen a number of his films but he is in so many, Im still watching them, as it were. I love how he is such a chameleon and is so different for each role but still has that Tim Curry about it. I hope he is doing better now. I'll find out soon, since he will he in Dallas at a con in May. He must be doing pretty good then. <3 HBD Tim!
