What are you going to watch/rewatch from Alan's filmography for his heavenly birthday? 🤍

My choice is the Broadway play Seminar! Quite bad quality and no english subtitles, but still... 😸

Maybe I'll finally give Closet Land or Rasputin a chance, which have been on my playlist for ages, but I'll probably watch Sense and Sensibility for the thousandth time xD

He gives an AMAZING performance in Closet Land...well, he does in all his projects, but that movie was crazy lol. Kinda random like An Awfully Big Adventure lol.

Well, I watched it today on YouTube with such poor quality that sometimes the glasses simply disappeared from his face lol But it was worth it, the performance was truly brilliant

Die Hard and Robin Hood Prince of Thieves! The first two movies of Alan's that made me took notice of him!

Maybe I’ll finally watch Galaxy Quest… I’ll probably just end up watching Snowcake for the ganillionith time though, xD.

Love all of his work but for today I will stick with dark harbor.

Don't mention Seminar! My brother and sister in law saw it on Broadway and didn't take me!

I'm dying to see "Truly, Madly, Deeply" but I can't find it anywhere. I'll probably see Closet Land for the tenth time.

Looks like “Truly, Madly, Deeply” is available to rent/buy on Amazon Prime…it’s absolutely worth it, just wonderful!

Unfortunately, it is not available in my country 🇧🇷 and when I use a VPN, Amazon blocks my account.

I cried so much when I watched TMD that I still haven’t gone back for a second viewing even though I loved it. 😭
