Not Scene In NY: Philip Seymour Hoffman

This is an extremely belated post, but I thought it was still worth the scream I let out when I read J's text message.

J and Roomie did ask me to go to lunch at a French resto in the city. And because we must allocate our resources, especially during this time of the year, I begged off even if I wanted to. And lo and behold, directly at Roomie's 12 o'clock was one of my favorite actors, Philip Seymour Hoffman.

Up until Capote, this guy was probably one of the most underrated actors in the mainstream. He's one of those actors like John C. Reilly who's everywhere but you never know the name of (they both appeared in Magnolia, by the way).

Anyway, needless to say, I regreted not going to lunch that day. But then, I would have just tried to steal glances at him, just like I did with Christian Bale. I'm a sissy, anyway.
