Interview meme
The rules of the meme are thus - Leave a comment, saying you want to be interviewed. I will respond with five questions. You'll update your journal with my five questions, and your five answers. You'll include this explanation. You'll ask other people five questions when they want to be interviewed. That is, if you want to.
These questions are from my friend, oakmouse
1. When you get a dog, what kind are you most likely to get?
I would like to have a greyhound. Most likely, I'll be in an apartment or a small space for a while and I've heard they are excellent dogs for small spaces. However, I'm undecided if it would be better to go to a shelter and get whatever dog I take a fancy to. Either way, the dog will be a rescue.
2. What's your favorite role from a play in which you've acted?
I played Granny in Into the Woods, which was entertaining, despite how short it was. I also greatly enjoyed being in a children's production we did called Crow and Weasal. I forget exactly where the story originates, but it's a Native American tale and we produced it using puppets and masks. I played Mountain Lioness and was one of the two main narrators. Myself and the man who played Mountain Lion were representative of the Spirits and the magic of the story. It was beautiful and inspiring and a great joy to take part of.
3. Who's your favorite author?
I don't have a favorite author, per se. I'm a very major character person, so I will follow a story in which there are characters I love. I won't, however, necessarily enjoy the other works of the author. Having said that, my favorite books of all time are the Darkest Night Trilogy by Tanya Huff (Smoke and Shadows, Smoke and Mirrors, and Smoke and Ashes.) I love how they are written and will eventually visit more of Ms. Huff's work. I'm pretty much heartbroken that there won't be another book.
4. Favorite playwright?
I'm even less likely to have a favorite playwright. I actually don't tend to read a lot of plays. However, my two favorite plays are The Eight: Reindeer Monologues by Jeff Goode and No Exit by Jean-Paul Sartre. They both speak very deeply about 'the human condition'. I can't really put it into better words right now.
5. If you could change one thing about the LOTR movies, what would it be?
Huh. Never really thought about it, honestly. I love the movies the way they are, really. I guess there are two things. Sam's monolgue at the end of The Two Towers was a bit much for me. It went on and was kind of... mushy, I guess. I didn't feel very much for it. Also, damn but Elijah Wood's portrayel of Frodo is slightly annoying. He speaks really slowly and breathily to show how tired and agonized Frodo is, but I think he did it just a little heavy. Oh, and a third point? At the End of The Return of the King, When Frodo stands on the dock and smiles back at the other three hobbits, that was the most faked smile ever. Totally cheesy and should be redone. Makes me laugh every time.
So... for really liking the movies, there's three things, hehe.
