I'm placing my account here. Mind you, I'm still embarassed in some aspects, while overwhelmed and thrilled in others!
I copied this from my lj!
Okay, I got a semi-hangover, but I should be fine.
Let's just say last night was amazing. The movie, Breakfast on Pluto is brillant and Cillian's performance is brillant! Okay, okay, I expected that. But, what I didn't expect was the access of him prior to the movie. Okay, let me set the scene.
We arrive at the ArcLight Theater where the screening is being held. We see a red carpet for arrivals there; however, being a little cynical, I say to myself, "Cillian won't be here, so just support the movie".
Devon, my bro in law, and I decided to grab a small bite before the movie, so the theater where the screening was held has a cafe. We sat on the patio and had a good late, late lunch. A fruit and cheese plate, a cup of soup and a salad. I didn't want anything heavy. But, I tell you I had the most terribly tasting martini, but I digress. Anyway, small people show up (Tom Arnold, who was supporting another film, why the hell was he walking the BOP carpet?). Moments after Devon pays the bill, who do I see walking the carpet? It's my boy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All I can say is that I grabbed unto Devin's arm with a death grip (sorry, Dev!). I tell him I can't stay here. He's approaching the doors and I have to see him up close (as always running my mouth, not really expecting anything).
So we leave the cafe in a fast-pace. Who is waiting there as we leave the doors? Mmm....it's Cillian. Geez, he's up close and personal. I can't breathe! He's standing right there near me. Okay, so I tell Dev that I have to meet him NOW!!!!!! (okay, it's the second time, but who's really counting!) Yet again, I'm running my mouth as I'm walking behind him, and I mean BEHIND HIM!!! I'm so close that if I was as bold as I claim to be sometimes, I could have pinched his ass! (Damn, maybe I should've!). So we arrive within steps of the elevator where Cillian and some guy is.
Anyway, not truly realizing how bold Dev is when I mention again how I have to meet him, Dev steps close to him and says, "Hello, Cillian, my name is Devon (at the same time, Cillian says hello and shakes his hand, as Dev continues) and I just have to say that my sister-in-law is your biggest fan and she wants to say hello?" Cillian looks my way, and he is looking me up and down (I must say that I was absolutely hot last night!!!! The clothes, makeup, and hair was just right, but I digress!) as Dev motions for me to come over. For a few seconds, I'm like a deer caught in freaking headlights!!!!! Okay, but I get it together very quickly and walk over (Dev would say I sashayed!). I reach out my hand (as Cillian does the same) and say in a breathy Marilyn Monroe-inspired way (Dev's words, not mine, but later I had to admit it), "I just want to say that I wish you good luck in all that you do." As I am saying this I'm trying to keep my top from exposing my boobs (when you don't have much and you will certain tops you worry about those babies slipping!) and I'm showing some cleavage. But as I'm doing my best unintentional Marilyn impersonation, I could help but notice his eyes darting there. Typical male, no big whoop (yeah, he looked!). Anyway, he says "Thank you and Cheers". I back off with Dev. However, as I motion away, he still is looking.
So, as I turn away, I see two girls staring at me. I think to myself, "Are they from the forum?" since they had pics of him and everything. I was wondering b/c no one approached me just yet. But yeah it was blue eyed struck and hellosunshine (not their real names, but their screen names)!!!!!! In fact, blue had a pic of me behind Cillian at the elevator!!!!!! They were so cute because they were ultimately speechless!!!!
Okay, okay so we are gabbing little little girls. The whole time I can't breathe, get my thoughts together, or act the least bit coherent. We manage to get to the auditorium where the movie is being played. Prior to the movie, Neil Jordan introduced the movie as Cillian said "Enjoy" or something like that and left.
After the movie, I run into another girl (Courtnee/the_5th_child/Nublet)!!!! I'm glad she got a glimpse of him. I was wondering if she had made it since I didn't see her before the lights dimmed.
Overall, it was amazing and I wish it didn't go by as quickly as it did!
1. The movie as previously stated is ga-ga-gorgeous!!!!! Cillian (as if there was any room for doubt) was simply amazing and I will say that he should get an Oscar nomination for his performance. He conquered a large emotional rage in this film and I love him more for it! I may have to replace my fondness for Dr. Crane for Kitten (but give me time before I make the ultimate decision! LOL!)
2. He hands are like butter. They are soooo soft. Okay, I'm acting like a girl there, but I digress.
I'm still trying to get my thoughts together. But, I'm sure I will share some more.
(Plus, I would like Hellosunshine and Blue-eyed struck to place their recounts as well to help my selective amnesia! LOL!)
