I can see that he is operating "in the shadows", while other guests enjoy the sun. :-)
No, he was having a work meeting. In other circumstances I might have gone over and said hello.
I wonder what that means?
Knowing myself, I would have been a tiny bit more "direct" :-P.
As I work in the industry I sometimes have to suppress the inner Bond (film) fan, you never really know what the repercussions might be. An ex-colleague of mine approached Idris Elba at the BFI once while he was in conversation with, he assumed, 'just a mate'. It was in fact Danny Cohen, director of BBC Television. Interrupting one of the most powerful men in British Broadcasting to tell Idris you're a budding director and you love him isn't the smartest idea. Needless to say his card is marked.
I've approached people at studios (Pinewood etc)before, because they understand you're there in a professional capacity. In public it's a bit difficult, particularly if they're not just out and about.
Based on the fact that they finished shooting
A good friend of mine lives 6 months a year here in Barcelona. Back in The Netherlands he is a celebrity himself (television presenter). We both agree that if you have a job in which you're always under big media scrutiny, you better be humble. Off course as a television presenter, you're by no means representing the people. BUT, there's a representative value attached to being a celebrity.
Now in the situation you described, with Andrew Scott, it's therefore all about body language. You can be direct in a friendly, nonchalant way, so that that celebrity feels immediately at ease with you. That's my experience. Always think on same levels with celebrities. They are not aliens, they are humans.
I also think it's a cultural thing @RC7. Dutch people are, I think, slightly more direct than English people. But direct doesn't necessarily mean rude or intrusive. I also believe it's not a very friendly thing to do if you only make a picture, by not first walking to Mr Scott if it's OK to make a picture.
Apparently, they use two different types of clapperboards no? The ones with red LED-displays on them (I have NO clue what they are for :S) and the ones without LED-displays. Do you know where that is for?
The LED display indicates the hour, or not?
More like 30 minutes to go...that's if there's something today which I want but doubt.
If anything we should be getting a new Bond girls videoblog next week so....
Dude, I spotted a guy who's in my favourite franchise and was pleasantly surprised. I didn't talk to him because he was having what was effectively a business meeting. I don't need a lecture on the differences between British and Dutch culture. It was purely a nice little unexpected moment in my day.
so, coming back to the ever lasting issue of the film's UK release date, should we assume that a "pre-preview" in late October means a Nov. 6 release? otherwise, a "pre-preview" for a film that comes out Oct. 23, would require mr. Wright to keep early or mid October free in order to attend. wouldn't you say?
Till what?
I have no idea but it is exciting isn't it ;)
