Goodbye, muttonchops...

For "Good," I finally, FINALLY have a role that not only does not call for Heffie spontenaity and humor, but rather forces me to dampen down those strong aspects of my acting style. I mean, this is what I kinda was trying for with Silvius, but inevitibly, what happened? Crazy Heffie emerged, as usual. Finally I'm forced to try other things. The tricky thing is trying to act 45, instead of 21. I know plenty of flighty, active, spastic people in their 40s, but it's drawing the line between than and a person in their late teens, early 20's.

In other news, I'm going to have to shave my sideburns off. We're still not sure what we're going to do with my hair, since I'm not sure the way it is now would work for a WWII-era German literature professor, much less a member of the S.S. But the muttonchops are absolutely out. Which is fine, since I don't think they'd work for Vigil either, but still... I know they'll grow back, but I'll feel naked without them. But then, I did that too for the sake of theatre, didn't I?

ooooooo me likey!

Ah, Justice League's done it again. The Question. The guy in my new LJ icon. One of my all-time favorite characters, and the basis for another of my all-time favorite characters, Rorschach from WATCHMEN. Imagine Rorschach as an Ayn Rand Zen Buddhist, that's the Question. Voiced to perfection by Jeffery Combs, the Re-Animator himself and the psycho FBI Agent from Peter Jackson's THE FRIGHTENERS. Beautiful. Once again, filled with moments of character brilliance.

Green Arrow: Don't listen to this guy - everything's conspiracies with him.
The Question: Not 'conspiracies'. 'Conspiracy.' Singular. Reaching back to Ancient Egypt, there's been a single cabal of powerful individuals directing the course of human history. But the common man prefers to believe they don't exist, which aids their success.
Supergirl: Global warming? Military upheavals in the third world? Actors elected to public office?
Green Arrow: The spread of coffee bars? Germs outpacing antibiotics? And boy bands? Come on! Who would gain from all this?
The Question: Who indeed?
Supergirl: What - do you go through my trash?
The Question: Please. I go through everyone's trash.
Green Arrow: Does everything have a sinister motive in your world?
The Question: Yours too. You just don't know it.

I... wholeheartedly approve. Freakishly tall Mandy Moore with her freakishly tall cigarette will be mine, and we will watch Futurama. Oh yes. And talk about the Question.
