Alan Rickman interview

[dradamsapple]

Ok, so I think I'm getting on the Alan Rickman bandwagon!
I just finished watching an interview he did this past june (6/07/02) 
with Charlie Rose on PBS.  They just aired it again this evening, me 
seeing this for the first time.  He's a very interesting person, very 
subdued, but a great actor.  They showed clips of the play he's doing 
in NY, "Private Lives", and of "Sense and Sensibility" with Emma 
Thompson.  I want to go to NY now to see him in this play!!  He's 
very funny!!
And a BRIEF mention of HP; Mr. Rose asking him (sarcastically) if he 
was planning on doing HP for the rest of his life!  Mr Rickman, very 
eloquently correcting Mr. Rose about the life span of HP, and 
how "the books" only go for seven years, so after that, he (AR) is 
done (!!!!)
Sooooo, does this mean we will be watching this great actor play the 
Potions' master for the next few years?? ;-) I hope so!
And oh yes, he had some wonderful things to say about JKR; he seemed 
very much in awe of her "single parent" status at the time of her 
writing, and how she made it all come together.
I wish I had known this was going to be on so I could have warned 
everyone (well, at least those in the northeast).
Anyone else happen to see this interview?

Here's to a long and happy life for Mr. Rickman . . .
