On Thursday, I was able to visit the Free Library again to see the renowned actor, Christopher Plummer. Hes probably best known as Captain Von Trapp in The Sound of Music. Incidentally, he hates that movie with a passion, although hes apparently gotten more of a sense of humor about it in recent years. The interview was very interesting, and he was quite charming and funny. He also certainly did not seem to be almost 80. I even asked a question about his voice-over work and found out hes going to be in the next Pixar movie. He spoke extensively about his theater work and his favorite roles. He commented that he would really like to be able to play Hamlet now, because when youre the right age for the role, you dont have the technique or wisdom to play it correctly. He also appreciates King Lear as a character, but doesnt think the pacing of the play showcases him correctly. I was able to get a copy of his new memoir, In Spite of Myself, signed for my dad (shhh its a surprise).
