Alan Cummings is NOT Gilderoy Lockhart! (rant)

[Jennifer Piersol]

Okay, I'm not debunking any rumors here... the rumor in question 
being that Alan Cummings has taken over for Hugh Grant in playing 
Lockhart in CoS - but I have to rant about it.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Alan Cummings plays a GREAT "smarmy" guy... smarmy in the sense that 
he's slimy and "dirty" and has questionable moral qualities... he 
doesn't seem to fit (IMHO) the fop role that Lockhart requires.  His 
face seems wrong for the huge toothy grin I imagine GL often flashes 
at his fans, and I'm getting more and more pissed off that he's even 
rumored to be taking over.

ARGH!

Jen (who would love both agreement AND evidence that AC *would* make 
a good GL... rentable movie titles would help, and if you saw Caberet 
when he was starring in it, that is also acceptable)

(btw, just to make sure I'm understood... I *do* like AC's work... 
very much.  But he's just not right!)
