here is an early shot of my darling ian holm doing 'romeo and juliet,' i think. which means he was probably playing romeo. i used to know the name of the girl, but i confess i can't remember it right now. its probably just as well, as its hard for me to look at this shot anyway without feeling a tightening little wire of jealousy. i think he might have even been married to her for a while, but as i said, i really can't remember. the girl aside, ian's so damned talented... even in this decades-old photograph, the required romantic longing comes through from his eyes. his voice must have been high, practiced, sleek, and perfectly intoxicating. ian, a thousand times good-night. kiss.
