I'm Myriam, from Madrid. I'm glado to discover a fanfourmthis dedicated to Cillian, one of most gifted actors of his generation whom I met thanks to having the chance to work on studio sound editing for his last releseade movie, Red Ligths, filmed in Spain and Toronto. HonestlyI barely knew anything of his huge body of work, to me he was only a pretty face, but I must tell that I got highly impressed by his acting skills and profesionality. While filming the movie, I wasn't involved on the shooting, but on the prost-production job, so I only could see him briefly at the very last day of shooting, and I didn't dare to aproach, (silly me) I should have done it before, he is very gentle and attentive, at least with the film crew , but I've heard that he doesn't like to be bothered off-job and use to be a little bit shy (even with a look of don't llok / don't touch) when aproached by fans.Well, our chat was very friendly (given that I was married in Cork and my hubbie is from there, he was happy to chat about his homeland) but short, , unluckyly we didn't have a new chance again to keep on chating. Now he's got a new admirer, and I hope to get to know all in here. I intend to go to london on may, 18th to see Mistermand, anyone attending?

How lovely to meet you Myriam!
What a lucky, lucky gal you are! Just like with my ex who met him in London I envy you so much but don't get me wrong, I'm happy for you! I have no idea how I'd ever get to even see him in the flesh from afar *sigh*
Welcome to the forum! I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I do here

Welcome Myriam! I'm Leyla from Italy, a fellow Southern-European. Wow, that's quite an experience ) so happy for you and thanks for sharing, it was some precious hindsight. I'm attending Misterman, but on April 14th. I think there must be someone else planning to go, try the theatre board.

Hi Myriam! Lovely to meet you! You live in a beautiful city! I love Madrid, it was a long time when I was there working 14 years ago but I have some amazing memories because I was there over New Year 1999, we did the eating the 12 Grapes tradition! Nochevieja de Año It's harder than it looks! Yo vivo cerca de Londres. Tal vez podamos cumplir, pero yo voy a ver el rendimiento final de Misterman también. I am pleased you got to work with the film and meet Cillian! I can't wait to see it! But seriously all I can say is that I worked in Spain in a tour, tal vez usted recuerde El Nuevo Mundo Los Gnomos Sobre Hielo 1998? se realizó en Bilbao, Valencia, Zaragoza, Barcelona y Madrid. Yo era la Reina! Jaja! You are the most loveliest people to work and be with. Lo digo con una lágrima en el ojo... I miss you all and your beautiful country! <3 <3 <3

Thank you all for your warm wellcoming¡ It seems you're running a good ambience in here and I hope to "see" you in here on a regular basis. Yess, meeting Cillian "on the flesh" it was quite an experience, it helped to make it natural maybe because I was not star-struck by him at the moment. I think he enjoyed filming in Barcelona and in general terms, the spanish ambience of the set, and as Wikkenhamrocks says, he was amazed by the spanish way of working, he told me we were quite a good profesionals, quick and vital. What a proud for us, given that he is an actor that has worked on the Hollywood industry with big director such as Nolan ! I only complimented for his versatile acting skills (although I was dying to let him know that his eyes were trespassing me, the gem blue colour is just beautiful, but the size of his eyes was that puzzled me the most, they are inmense) My children have got the same blue colour (inherited from his corkish daddy, a trade mark from Cork as he told me) but the intensitiy when he glares at you affecting that what you are telling in the most interesting thing in the world, just took my breath away. About going to London to see him on stage, I'm up for it, so if anyone arround London is able to attend, we have 1 month ahead to decide wich date is the best suitable one. Thanks again for your words.

Welcome to the forum Myriam! You are SOOO lucky to have gotten to meet him. I am not surprised you are a fan now! ;D I'm glad you like the forum and hope you stay for awhile. I wish I could go with you to see Misterman but sadly I don't think it's in my budget although I really want to go to London again.
