Mea culpa, Simone. I meant no personal harm and am glad that I was able to find your forum and your discussion of my review. From my perspective, though, I thought I was seeing a film with an unknown actor (he was unknown to me, anyway) and had no idea that he had such a devoted group of fans.

I’m glad you enjoyed the film as well as the experience of meeting Michael, and I was pleased that your group seemed to like my review of the film. I was actually hesitant to add the P.S. anyway since I don’t usually like to focus on anything but the film itself.

I did leave out another story in which a woman two seats over from me began eating a HUGE burrito just before the film started. So for me the atmosphere was pretty ironic.

I may also have been a bit cranky because we had been kept standing in line for so long in such a confined and loud space. So I do apologize if I somehow offended you or other members of your group or lessened your enjoyment in any way.

I think we can all agree, though, that Hunger is a major film and that Michael’s work in it is superb.
