I am now even more convinced than before (if that's possible) that
Jason Carter is the PERFECT Sirius Black. The Poets Alliance of Indy
and Slidezone Productions brought him to Indianapolis, not for a B5
thing, but as a poet, for a guest appearance at one of their regular
public reading sessions this past Saturday.
I was lucky enough to be able to attend due to a series of
circumstances, almost circumVENTED by the tornadoes hitting my quasi-
sister's neighborhood Friday afternoon!
Jason Carter is a smart, witty, expressive and intelligent person,
who understands his craft and art and insists on 'finding the truth
in the lie'. He's reviewed the excerpts from the books (reposted on
the campaign website,
http://www.SFF.net/people/Corgi/JasonCarter/excerpts.htm ) and agreed
this is a character he could do, and find interesting.
And, on a more trivial level, his hair -is- actually black (and
gorgeous, but that's IMHO). His eyes, incidentally, since they have
been discussed previously, are green -- but a very unusual and subtle
shade which could easily be mistaken for something else depending on
the lighting (or lack thereof). Not terribly relevant ;) but kind of
interesting.
I know for sure there's at least one of the poetry attendees who
spoke up with that familiar fanatic 'gleam' in his voice when he
asked Jason what he would bring to the role of Sirius Black --
another True Believer has been born!
It's kind of silly, but I wish you all could have been there. At the
very least, you would have been entertained; at the most, you'd
understand why I =have= to do this. :)
