Urno is having a very rough month, so the posts have been slow in coming (lots of things in Urno's life are slow to come) but we have faith and hopefully it will all turn out for the better. Thanks to those who have hung in there with us and to the rest, well Eric says it best.
Pretty sure we posted this video or one from the same cooking demo a while back but who'd complain about a rerun of the Skars?

Denis O'Hare will most likely be in next season's American Horror Story, "Freak Show". It was announced at the Paleyfest panel for the show. Denis O’Hare was in the same two seasons of “AHS” as Jamie Brewer, skipping over “Asylum.” Will it be every other “American Horror Story” for Denis O’Hare? CraveOnline: Are you going to be in “Freak Show?” Denis O’Hare: I don’t know. We are in talks and we’re hoping to get resolution. I will do anything for Ryan. He knows that and I would hope so. What was your favorite moment from “Coven?” Denis O’Hare: I love so many moments. I love being in my little dollhouse room sitting with my dolls. I absolutely loved it. I also loved Jessica in bed when we had that little scene where I fed her medicine to make her revive. I just love that whole scene. I also love everything Frannie Conroy did, that was great and I also loved watching Kathy Bates. I thought her scenes were so fantastic. Are there any cool extras on the DVD that you’re involved with? Denis O’Hare: I don’t know. There was one scene we did that got cut, a sex scene between Emma Roberts and I. From which episode? Denis O’Hare: I can’t remember. It was a pretty intense scene and I’m curious to see what it looked like. Another trailer for "The Normal Heart" with Denis-
Sorry for just updating this old post but dyammmmm, I'm tired, what a week.
An interview with passionate American actor Denis O’Hare, seen recently on stage in An Iliad, and on screen in Dallas Buyers Club.
ALEXANDER BISLEY: Congratulations on Dallas Buyers Club. There were three strong male performances. DENIS O’HARE: Thanks. It was a nice part. I liked it. You know, it was funny because I happen to know a lot about AIDS and about HIV, and I know a lot about the early day of AIDS because I was around then. As a gay man, I had to be thinking about it—what do I do to protect myself? How does the virus work? My first boyfriend died of AIDS in 2000. He was on all the medications and it still didn’t manage to work for him. A cousin of mine is a long-term survivor of HIV and there were some things in the movie that were frustrating for me because it’s not that they were inaccurate, but that they weren’t promoted. The story they were telling was not about the doctors, for instance. So the doctors become reduced to cardboard characters a little bit. I fought against that. The director and I tried to make the character a little more well rounded but when it comes down to it, it’s not the doctor’s story; it’s Matthew McConaughey’s story and his character is really against the system. But the system wasn’t entirely wrong. In order to test a drug, you have to have a double blind study—that means somebody’s not getting the drug. That’s how you test drugs. Call it immoral and unethical, but it’s scientific. In the movie, that’s presented as an evil thing but it’s not an evil thing, it’s the way medicine works. They also show the experimental protocol that he goes to Mexico to see as this very positive thing and the doctor was very, very nice. Well guess what? They didn’t work. He died. And now historically we know that they didn’t work- AB: He survived way longer than the thirty days your Dr. Sevard dramatically gives him- DO: Yeah, partly because he stopped drinking and stopped abusing his body and started becoming healthy. Who’s to say if he hadn’t taken the AZT medication, who knows if he would have lived longer? AZT was toxic in the early stages, but it became the gold plate standard of medication later, in combination with other drugs. The movie doesn’t really tell that story. It was not the story it was telling, but I also feel that people could draw the wrong conclusion—to think that AZT was evil. It wasn’t evil. It became the thing that saved many, many people’s lives. AB: I did see that brief little endnote at the film’s conclusion. DO: Which was put in because of an activist named Peter Staley who got involved in the end parts of the film and he insisted that they correct certain things. Thank God for that. AB: As actors, what makes McConaughey and Leto special to work with? DO I didn’t work with Jared, so I really can’t speak for him, although I will say that we shared a van more than one day and he was always in character and pretty much kept to himself, which is interesting. I saw him in a couple of scenes and he was always in character. Matthew is a really intense guy. He’s the best kind of narcissist; meaning that he only cares about what works for him and his character. But that’s what all actors really need to focus on. He takes care of himself in performance. He’s intense to work with. I mean, I got thrown up against the wall by him eight times in a row and even with all that weight he’d lost, he was still powerful. I have souvenirs. AB: A skinny Texan is still a Texan? DO: Exactly. There you go. Read more of this very well done interview at the SOURCE.
