That's a shame. Maybe you can do something to make him notice you more? WRITE IN CAPITALS?

Haha, I don't understand half of this. Middle orange? Is it a Spanish thing? Hang on a minute....
Do you mean this?
I spent the evening with my sister, so that was fun love. And I was given a grapefruit today. Does that count as a valentine? Haha. They called it a pampelmuse, but it's just another name for a grapefruit. 
Anyway, not that today is really more special than any other day of the year, but I hope you all had a lovely day however you spent it.
This one is for you, admin..

Yes, it is a Spanish thing... when we find the perfect partner we say: He or She is my middle organge (It's what Administrator will say when he met Scarlett Johanson)... LOL We have a lot of expression like this!
Administrator, I think this interview was made when they where in the Fesival in London in November, because it looks like other ones that he had during those times... I like the way he describes the work of an actor, as a simply employed... because a lot of actors believe that the fact of being artists made them different to the rest of people, and they behave in a strange way when they think that they are being gazed by us...

Thanks Joy! Would love to kick a football (aka soccer ball) were hearts came out of it, would score some really pretty goals! I bet more ladies would watch the game on the telly too if that happened....

Yes fedupandstressed, i think you're right! These journalists seem to do these interviews months/weeks ahead of time when the actor is available and then release it to coincide with the movie release. |

I don't remember Joaquin being in London last November. Anyone able to refresh my memory?

That's sweet. We have a lot of odd sayings in English too, as all languages do, but I can't think of any right now. lol.

Bad news for Spike...
Spike Jonze accused of stealing Her screenplay in lawsuit
Edit: Admin, how come when I do the link thingy it always goes to a "this webpage is not available" page?
Later edit: Nevermind, I've figured it out.

**~**~**~**~** SPOILER ALERT! **~**~**~**~**
Spike was interviewed about 'Her' on BBC Newsnight via satellite link. He seemed more interested in asking Emily Mathias what she thought of the film but does give his opinion on what the film is about.

JOAQUIN PHOENIX: "I HATE INTERVIEWS"Maverick, award-winner, tricky interviewee; Joaquin Phoenix confronts ShortList’s Tom Bailey
You’re admired for intense roles such as Freddie Quell in The Master. But have you ever sold out and done a film to pay the mortgage? Of course. People say there are actors and then there are movie stars. Well, I don’t want to be a movie star – I don’t even want to be called an actor. I’m an employee. I just do my f*cking job and I hope that I please the director. It’s so funny to me when people say [a film] has ‘good actors’ – and actors believe it and sh*t. You’re completely a hostage to the director. The director is the most important person to me.
Joaquin is employed as an actor, so he's an actor, surely? Isn't it his job description in the same way that someone might be employed as a bank manager, or a doctor, or a milkman, or a mechanic, or a baker, or a waiter, or a whatever? Then again, is he an employee in the same way as those people? Does the director, his employer (according to Joaquin), pay him his wage? Deduct his taxes and so on?
What’s your karaoke song of choice these days? I’ve never done it, but it’d be Ice Ice Baby. Is that meant to f*cking reveal something about me? Ideally. But we’ve heard you make up stuff in interviews… [Laughs] Well, you’ll never know, will you?
I can believe that this tune would be Joaquin's karaoke.
