Aisle Seat (article)
from The Vancouver Province, November 27, 2001, by Glen Schaefer
Vancouver actor Callum Keith Rennie (Due South, Memento) is in Ashcroft filming the family drama Flower and Garnet. Off-screen, he's dropped his longtime hockey habit and taken up golf. He also watches the odd movie.
What was the last movie you watched at home?
Saint of Fort Washington, a Matt Dillon-Danny Glover movie about two homeless characters trying to make their way in the world. It was great, actually. It was trying to reaffirm the human spirit, that people move on through stuff, a challenge to the viewer to live without judgment.
What was the last movie you saw at the theatre?
Sexy Beast. I loved that, a smallish, great film. Ben Kingsley is great playing a person you never want to spend any time around, a needy psychopath.
What movie could you watch over and over?
Withnail and I. It's one of those actor movies that actors like to watch. The actor's life, the bitching and the griping. I saw that a bunch of times.
What movie do you wish you'd never seen?
Battlefield Earth. I was almost in it, but no. Maybe it will become one of those cult classics. The Island of Dr. Moreau, that one was so appallingly bad it was laugh-out-loud funny. Battlefield Earth was just another bad movie.
If you could spend the day with one movie personality, who would it be?
Brando, 'cause he's a fascinating character. He's had a full run at it for a long time. He's always had his own particular take on everything. He's politicized, quite confusing. He's enduring.

HA! Um, yeah. That's all I am gonna say about THAT.
And dammit, I really need to watch Withnail and I, huh?
What movie do you wish you'd never seen?
Battlefield Earth. I was almost in it, but no.
*dies* Oh, Callum. Does that mean that you actually backed out of that one or did you just not get that role? *is honestly curious here*
BTW, Battlefield Earth? According to IMDB user rating number 96 of the Bottom 100 (http://www.imdb.com/chart/bottom?tt0185183).
Also, HI, Neu! ♥

I really need to watch Withnail and I, huh? You and me both! And the other two I guess, if I have the chance. Not talking of Battlefield, I've had the chance and threw it away, even though I'm usually pretty good at watching bad movies and enjoying some of them, that's saying something!
Hey! You're back!!!! &hearts &hearts &hearts Or - are you?

And Oh, Callum. Does that mean that you actually backed out of that one or did you just not get that role? *is honestly curious here* Curious same way here. Is there a twinge of regret in Maybe it will become one of those cult classics? With a wig? Really, Callum? or just a statement? (hopes)

Also, I am really curious about that movie now. /c\
