On the film thing and stuff.......

I know some of you have spoken about Eddie and his acting career, and I agree it is difficult move for him but it's one of his childhood dreams and I think he is seriously making some good moves towards it. In interviews he's mentioned that in the films he's been in so far he hasn't been happy with, that has been confirmed when I've spoken to Chris Johnson ('The Criminal'), Mr I, is still at an early stage of building up his own confidence in his acting abilities and we both agreed maybe some support (not in a sicafanctic way) and encouragement, on the board or something. It must be even more of a leap for him, specially when he's surrounded by pro. actors that have been to drama school and all that. His roles are improving, but I think he's gotta find scripts that don't contain 'Izzard' type material or pointers - ie. the beesexual line in All The Queen's Men and other bits and pieces that have popped up, just so that people can focus on his acting for that moment when he's onscreen. I think it's that short attention/putting people into boxes and labelling them kind of thing.

I say push the boundaries make the box a little more plush and fit it with hinges so you can push the flaps down for more manouvres

On the TV debate, vrai or faux, I don't think you'd make up something like that just for him to get into showbiz, I feel the stereotyping thing has occurred in many of the interviews he's taken part in and ppl don't seem to be able to move on, if he's in blokey mode or make-up mode, he never seems to be able to win, except with the fans. I think some ppl think because you're TV it means that you must wear make-up all the time, but that's not true at all, and ppl should respect that a little more.

anywho, will speak later, ciao
