i think i thought to myself once a couple of years back what would john hurt be like if he was the doctor, never thought he would become one though and he played it realy well lol
I went to a school where his brother was the cook! I also had a signed photo of him. It got so creased and damaged (thankyou shitty family for destroying yet another thing of mine like those arseholes, the other pupils, at the school in Wales where John Hurt's brother, a truly wonderful, loving, man was the cook) I ended up having to throw it away. I'd love to find out if John can cook anywhere near as superbly as his brother……..
The scene that Hurt describes with the alien not poking through is available on the 2-DVD set in the production documentary – you can see the rushes. What really impressed me was his concentration, staying in character while people were yelling, "We can't see it yet! It hasn't poked through yet!" etc. The whole cast was really professional.
Absolutely awesome amazing night!!!!!! John was in fantastic form ,a very gracious lovely man, so chuffed to be able to meet him and get autograph and photo!!!
Hes a legend, the way he played that scene, so realistic, he made that scene wot it is, it wud hav never worked without that extraordinary realistic performance he gave. Some great acting. I just want to say the greatest actors in films r English sorry that is my opinion lol.
His performance in "Watership Down" nearly killed me.
He's remarkable!

If John Hurt flat out told me he's a wizard, I'd honestly believe him.
I mean, look at him! Don't you get the impression that he's a wizard?
One of my fav actors. He is so eloquent.
What an ironic name. lol
John Hurt is everything an actor should be.

They are my favorite actors of all time. So I can agree with you
As well as a meaningful understatement. They kill him more times than Kenny.

I could listen to John Hurt's voice like music ♥
Touch of Rowley Birkin QC – and none the worse for that.
I like how John hints that sigourney weaver is meant to be 'difficult'

@fatg1t I'll bet that if you wrote to Hurt and told this story he would send you another photograph. Both he and his brother seem to be very kind.

@andross637 have you met her then?
Thespian extrodinaire!!!
LOL the Alien didn't burst from his stomach, it bursted from his CHEST. Hence the name, "chestburster"…
