Liam Neeson and Natasha Richardson Fan Page

In 1983, I had just finished my apprenticeship and started working in a factory on the assembly line when the film "Krull," directed by Peter Yates, was released in cinemas. At the time, I was a regular reader of the German film magazine "Cinema" and was made aware of the film in one of its issues. I went to the cinema on the very first weekend and was fascinated by the fantastic special effects. I still remember the giant crystal spider very well.  photo The production was extremely elaborate for its time and far ahead of its time in terms of technology. The budget was between 27 and 30 million US dollars, and filming took place on over 20 massive sets at Pinewood Studios.   The story takes place on the planet Krull, which is under attack by the alien species known as the Slayers and their leader, the Beast. To avert a greater threat, two former warring kingdoms unite and arrange the marriage of Prince Colwyn (played by Ken Marshall) and Pri...

This morning, after a very long time, I was surprised with a new photo of Liam. It was taken last night when Liam attended a New York Rangers game at Madison Square Garden in New York.   Many thanks to the New York Rangers for this beautiful photo. 

Maidin mhaith a Liam, guím Cáisc shona duit féin agus do do chlann.   Guím lá iontach síochánta ort. Tabhair aire mhaith duit féin agus do do theaghlach agus fan sláintiúil. Is iontach an rud é go bhfuil tú anseo. Go raibh maith agat as do thacaíocht go léir, as do thacaíocht do UNICEF. Tá súil agam go mbeimid in ann bualadh le chéile go pearsanta go luath agus comhrá a dhéanamh le cupán tae. Bheadh sé sin go hálainn. Sin é don lá inniu. Ceann eile de na laethanta saoire sin nach liomsa é. Gan Cháisc, gan Nollaig, gan lá breithe, gan aon rud ar chor ar bith. Ar feadh 62 bliain, ach an mothúchán a bheith gan iarraidh... i m'aonar. 

Today marks 17 years since Natasha left us. Sadly, I never got to see her on stage. But the people I spoke to about Natasha told me she was a wonderful stage actress. I would have loved to see Natasha and Liam in "Anna Christie." But New York and Broadway aren't exactly around the corner. I still want to send a loving greeting to heaven and a heartfelt hug, "Natasha, we miss you." On the anniversary of her death, I posted a short excerpt from an interview Natasha and Liam gave to People magazine in 1994: "I never really thought about marriage or family or anything like that," Liam said in an interview he gave with Natasha shortly after their wedding. "I always thought I'd better off doing things my own way. Until now, until I met Natasha." Years later, Liam spoke with Anderson Cooper on *60 Minutes* about the hours before Natasha's death: "We were talking on the phone in the afternoon and she said to me, ...

Last Saturday, while searching for a photo for this post, I came across an interview Liam gave in 1993 around the release of his film 'Ethan Frome'. "I read the screenplay first, then the book," Liam said in the interview. "You know, in the book, an engineer originally comes to town, but in the film, the writers made the character I play a minister. I thought that was a very good idea to tell the story of these unique people. Good story, I really like it. The screenplay was really well written and did a good job of adapting the novel." "You know, Edith Wharton actually hated the screen and stipulated in her will that none of her books should ever be filmed on silver nitrate, as was the custom at the time. But after a few years the book entered the public domain and could finally be made into a film."  For information:  It used to be standard to shoot movies on silver nitrate. However, due to its extremely high flammability a...

Photo In the third part of my series about Liam, I wrote about what is probably the most famous Christmas movie of the last (now) 22 years: "Love Actually" It's a film that I admittedly also enjoy watching in the summer. It's like a wholesome piece of "chocolate" that nourishes your soul and doesn't go straight to your hips. Actually, it's like a whole bar of chocolate divided into several smaller pieces. Many little stories are told, which ultimately come together. Besides Liam, the film also stars Emma Thompson, Alan Rickman, Laura Linney, Colin Firth, Martin Freeman, Keira Knightley, and many other well-known actors. One Photo, One Story  Part 3 November 08.2023 Twenty Years " Love Actually" Twenty years ago on November 7th 2003 "Love Actually" was released in cinemas.  The movie was written and directed by Richard Curtis and it's featured by ensemble cast of British actors. In addition to Liam,  Alan Rickman,  ...
