I'm planning on shooting only in black and white so what i really need is a not to big, not to heavy but good camera. Because I dont have the money for a classic Leica i'll have to think of something else. I'll let you know though.

I bet you thought my dust-up with Wolf Blitzer was just a cool ratings coup, that you really wouldn't have to correct the false statements you made about "Sicko." I bet you thought I was just going to go quietly away.

Think again. I'm about to become your worst nightmare. 'Cause I ain't ever going away. Not until you set the record straight, and apologize to your viewers. "The Most Trusted Name in News?" I think it's safe to say you can retire that slogan.

You have an occasional segment called "Keeping Them Honest." But who keeps you honest? After what the public saw with your report on "Sicko," and how many inaccuracies that report contained, how can anyone believe anything you say on your network? In the old days, before the Internet, you could get away with it. Your victims had no way to set the record straight, to show the viewers how you had misrepresented the truth. But now, we can post the truth -- and back it up with evidence and facts -- on the web, for all to see. And boy, judging from the mail both you and I have been receiving, the evidence I have posted on my site about your "Sicko" piece has led millions now to question your honesty.

Christopher Walken in russian


Baptism

this is what you get if you translate Christopher Walken from the Russian Esquire (http://www.esquire.ru/articles/18/wil/walken/). madness.



Actor, 63 years, New York


As a rule, 4 I do not play people, which cause confidence.

When I was dancer, I worked in the night club with Monica van vooren, singer. We with two fellows danced, and she sang. At the end of the show she introduced us, and once at night she said: "You know, Ronni (Present Name Of uokena — Ronald. — Esquire), I will call you kristofer ". I answered: "certainly, as you want". Now everyone calls me kristofer, except wife and brothers.

People consider me strange. In me the truth is many strangenesses as in any, who from five years in show business. All my formation, entire my experience, all my acquaintances, everything, with whom I grew, everything that I know, — everything of show business. 4 in it it always lived. Certainly, 4 strange. 4 from another planet.

I played many villains. Possibly because younger than its years appeared. Now perhaps I will play good children. I would want to obtain the role of father with the dog. To have house and children, and so that they would ask: "Popes, that to me to make?", and 4 it would answer: "you must enter correctly".

My weakness as director was in the fact that when me they asked, that to make, I always spoke: "make that you want". It seems me, director must be a little General. But General me would leave terrible.

One time 4 nearly was removed in To skorseze. It several times attempted to make the "last temptation of Christ". At some moment I had to play Iisusa. I spent with it certain time, but then studio did not allow it to remove, and they put off project to ten years.

With any possibility I scrutinize children's figures. Such impression, that among them there are no poor. This is always terribly interesting.

Before to read scenario, I emphasize the name of my character, the stage directions, which are concerned the circumstances of action, everything that "he speaks in it with cold". Then I re-read it again and again, until I run into the phrase, which on some it could say to reason in the life. This is the catch, with the aid of which I understand its hero. From this point on, everything goes by itself.

Wages in the film business do not yield to explanation. Thus far to me were not carried out thirty five, 4 never earned in yr of eleven thousand dollars. But 4 by that time he was the actor already of twenty years.

When television appeared, my parents took a seat to it. They purchased the largest television set. The spectres from those years sometimes come to me: for example, small monkey on the motorcycles. There were very famous monkey, Jay Fred Of mags, it has its own motorcycle, it was star!

I worked as child in the particular circus. Owner they called Kerol Jacobs. He wanted with it in the circus number its son, dressed in exactly the same manner to participate . But it not had son, and it placed on the number me. To me they did not pay wage, I worked there, because this was interestingly.

I have theory about the words. There are thousands of methods to say "transmit to me salt". This can mean "in me it is insufficiently salted food" or "I I love you". But can "4 very to you ashes" — this list can be for long continued. Words — these are the small bombs, in which the mass of energy.

When I was boy, there was this rule: if you do not know how to float, it is necessary to throw you into the water and you will float. It was necessary to catch me from the pond. 4 , until now, I do not know how to float.

When I disappear — 4 in Venice. I lived there the pair of months, it learned streets, 4 even I know, where the there Chinese restaurants. I found the place, where gondoliers have dinner. Problem in the fact that, after arriving into Italy, I can collect six kilograms in one week. This is bad for the actor. To actors it is better to drive there, where the food is a little bit worse.

In the cinema the actor corresponds to subject. And so it is understandable that 4 poor fellow, — to me very it is not necessary to be for poor. Everything that I make, already badly. I come to the work, I tell my words and the ides home. I think, real villains make in exactly the same manner . They, probably have families.

Once I was in the small city, the dusty hilly town in the south of Italy, and it met woman with the child. To it there were, probably about eight. It looked always at me, and then he said: "max!" — keeping in mind Max Schrek from "betmena". Here to you and the force of cinematography.

Most complex in the life of actor — always to remain in sight . To be lost in show business is too easy.

I know that I appear very strangely. 4 and in the childhood it was similar — you will look photographs. But 4 I do not feel itself strange. Although to play simple fellow from your street to me is difficult. Camera converts strangeness into the villainy.

4 in general I do not love violence. Only in the very good films. But by properly strange me seems the society, in which the adolescents have automatic weapon, and serial killers quietly travel along the superhighways.

In the theater I played many enormous roles — of Hamlet three times, Romeo three times, and, it is possible to say, played they badly. I depicted all these gloomy Shakespearean heroes, but I consider that me one ought not to have made this.

People focus attention on actors, because actors play well, but not because they know, about which they speak. It is necessary to follow its words. In order to play well, it is not necessary to be for clever, it suffices to be a good actor.

4 it is dressed in the black, because this is practical. You appear more thinly, you appear clean, even if this in reality not then. Asiatics knew this of thousands years.

For me it is necessary to read tabloidy. From where otherwise I did learn, which does occur, that who a coma did make, who parts and concurs again? Really to you it is uninteresting about the recently open rolls of dead sea? Perhaps this is not important? For me — very.

In some sense to write memoirs, if you do not plan the multivolume labor, this as to sign to yourselves death certificate .

Directly now 4 with the pleasure looked cinema about zombi. Films about zombi are interesting because it is possible to make them with any budget. It is possible to remove them free of charge, while it is possible to spend the heap of money, and nevertheless this there will be film about zombi.

I do not have computer, i do not have cell phone and there are no wrist it is hour.

Good in the actors was tails. Tail is very expressive. It is immediately evidently on the cat, if it is angered or frightened, because it raspushayet tail. If me it was necessary to play fright, to me sufficient it would be to scold tail. If in the actors would be tails, this changed everything.

When there was Caribbean crisis, in me was "Volkswagen", and once I sat in it with the girl. We listened to radio, and this was similarly to the end of the light. Bombs were moved, and all this seemed very realistic. To me it was near the eighteen years.

Professional dancers never walk to the dances. This contradicts their religion.

When left "hunter to the deer", there were communications in the newspapers about the people, which play into the Russian tape-measure. Pridurki exist everywhere, and 4 I do not think that the cinema has to this some relation. Think about the peace, in which we live. People, whose portion in the weapons business of 5-10 percent, they become multi-millionaires. But then they speak about the responsibility of cinematography. Cinema does not have this value.

The older I become, the greater the confidence, that everything in our life — from the success. And from the punctuality. If we come in time, everything goes well.

Once I walked to the psychiatrist, but it was such strange, that I immediately left. To me did not be required aid, but someone said to me to go and to have a talk with it. I said By "o'key" and I — went it solved, that this it needs aid. It assumed in its apartment, and they called it to the telephone. For the minute through the door I saw its kitchen, it entire was in the dirty dishes. It was, obviously, it is very slovenly, and I solved: you cannot advise me as to live, if you do not manage the dirty dishes. But me greatly it is desirable to play psychiatrist. In me it came out well.

People ask me: "where you drive to rest?" But 4 anywhere not to ezzhu. This — cinema picture, for the surveys usually selects picturesque places. I visited places, where never it went into the leave. Never. I was in the jungle, at the mountain peak. I was removed in the place in Hawaii, where made the "park of Jurassic period", in the preserve. This as to return to the times of the creation of peace, you will not believe, that on the earth there are such places.

My dear occupation — to sit house with the scenario and to teach role. 4 actors, i do not have hobby, there are no children, and 4 I do not love to travel.

On the surveys I always repeat one drawing. For this it is necessary to arise early in the morning, to go into the grimirovochnyy trailer, and thus far beautician works at your face, to be shut by very sad. Sooner or later it will ask: "which did happen? You appear depressed today ". I speak: "everything in the order". Then she speaks: "well nevertheless, which happened?" And I answer: "today i have birthday, and to me it is sad, since I will conduct it in the solitude and without the cake". But then I add: "only no one you tell!" To the lunch all already in the course, and bring cake — this very ridiculously.

4 I cannot walkas usual person. No one, who dealt with dances, cannot. Although in women this is less noticeably.

Men vroeg mij opnieuw een stukje te schrijven voor het personeelsblad. iets over dat mijn vorige bijdrage ‘niet duidelijk was’. Onzin natuurlijk.
Nou had ik helemaal geen zin in een bijdrage, dat mag u gerust van me weten. Zo’n flauw ‘éven voorstellen’ stukje waarin Hans van Administratie mag uitleggen dat hij de het hier prima naar z’n zin heeft maar dat hans’s grote passie toch z’n miniatuurmodelbouw project van treinstation Utrecht wat hij bij z’n moeder op zolder heeft gebouwd en waar hij “graag op z’n fluitje blaast”. Waarna collega’s de andere dag bij het koffiezetapparaat zeker zullen zeggen: “Goh Hans, dat wist ik niet joh, dat jij zo’n waanzinnig interessant individu bent!” Lijkt mij onwaarschijnlijk.
Nee, dan zou ik liever van de gelegenheid gebruik maken om te vertellen hoe ik nog voor de toenmalige BVD in Leningrad ( U kent het waarschijnlijk als Sint-Petersburg, maar voor mij zal het altijd Leningrad blijven!) een Frans lid van het Olympisch comité moest ‘ompraten’. Helaas mag ik daar niet verder over uitweiden, maar geláchen dat we hebben met die Russen! Geláchen! Chtob vse byli zdorovy!

en misschien verstond die (trouwens tamelijk hardhandige) meneer mij wel niet helemaal omdat we niet in hetzelfde taalgebied zijn geboren. tja.

kwaak, kwaak, riep eend tegen niemand in het bijzonder: de vijver was leeg. als eend geen eend was geweest was hem waarschijnlijk nu iets toepasselijks van Schopenhauer binnengeschoten, misschien wel: Dit intellectuele leven zweeft als een etherische kruiding, als een welriekende geur die zich uit heel die gisting losmaakt, boven het reilen en zeilen van de wereld, boven de eigenlijke realiteit van het door de Wil bestuurde leven der volkeren. Parallel aan de wereldgeschiedenis loopt schuldeloos en zonder met bloed te zijn bevlekt de geschiedenis van de filosofie, van de wetenschap en van de kunsten. En zo is het maar net, eend. tot volgende week kinderen! tot eend!
