You guys...lol...I can't even tell if he's cute or not, even after clicking on the pics, because there's no closeup of his face or anything.

I believe that there are some close-ups on his face on the side-bar link entitled "cast party." I'm told that everybody's drunk in them... and I think there's one picture of him in the dressing room putting strands of gray in his hair. In the cast party pics, he looks a lot like Michael Cade (the guy who played the money-obsessed Sly Winkle on that Saturday morning NBC show "California Dreams"). From most angles, though, he really does look like our dear Mr. Coulson... which is why he gave me a shock when I first started seeing him around in January.

Yeah, I think I would get a shock if I suddenly saw someone at Uni who looked like CC....and I probably would think he was a ghost because Melb Uni has a lot of old buildings and things (I personally like the old buildings-they have like gargoyles and things carved in stone, and the name of the particular department). However with the Uni being in the middle of the city a lot of the departments are now off campus- like on other streets and things,and they're just normal buildings, not the same as all the ones on the campus. It's certainly a lot bigger than my last Uni.

I get to see Mr. Jason "Coulson-look-alike" tonight in "As You Like It." Hooray!
But back to the ghost thing... The building that I had the sightings of Jason where I thought he was a ghost was built pretty recently... 1997 or so. But it has SUCH a labyrinthine quality that it's kinda creepy at night... the interior is kinda designed like a maze. I think I'd prefer the gothic architecture to the maze-like interior of the Humanities building... or the new Arts Building that feels (and looks like) a postmodern prison.

There's a ghost in the basement area under one of the theatres in my university. I never heard it myself, despite having spent much time in that building, but my friend Bill (who hasn't called me <cough>) told me once that he had heard it.

Just got home from "As You Like It" and am feeling a little freaked out. Somehow, Jason located me in the crowd and proceeded to look at me (yes, at ME) every time he stepped out on stage. It reminded me a bit of the moment I woke up to him staring at me in the English Dept Library in the Henry Winter attire. And almost every time he said "you" he pointed that horrible cane (he played Duke Frederick) at me. It was a little freaky because my seat was right of the stage right entry, so I wasn't really SUPPOSED to be part of any character's line of vision. But, now that I think about it, maybe it's all just a coincidence... and I'm being a little paranoid. But for those of you who enjoy the Jason (Coulson-cousin) fodder, take from this what you will.
Oh, and Catriona, in the program he's credited as Jason C. H-----. Maybe the C stands for Coulson... who knows, perhaps he may be a Californian cousin. (Though, I have my doubts about that.)

sounds like too much of a coincidence to me really, as u said stage right isn't usually in anyones line of vision. having said that every time i go to see a play i find that at least one of the characters will look directly at me when they're saying some of thier lines, god knows why but they do! lol
anyway, if u can go and see the play again, sit somewhere else, see if he looks at u again!

I would watch the play again, but it's another $8 that I can't afford to spend. (The new quarter is coming up, and I have A LOT of books to buy for school.) Well, maybe I wouldn't watch the play again... almost all the actresses couldn't really act. (I hated who they cast as Rosalind... ugh.)
I've been working on a piece of fiction that people keep telling me to adapt into a play or screenplay. (Mandragora actually has a copy of some of it.) A mutual friend of mine and Jason's has actually told me that he'd be great as the hero of the piece... And is actually threatening to show what I've written to Jason.
I swear... this is really getting to be pretty drawn-out-soap-opera-ish. I might just try out for "Rocky Horror" JUST so that I have a legitimate reason to talk to him so that I can finally put this quirky telephone-game-esque interaction to rest.
I just had a thought. I wonder if any of the gals that went to Cambridge with Christian ever had the kind of interaction with him that I'm having with Jason.

Okay, I didn't see any guy touching up his hair in the cast party pictures. I did see a Jason who was playing a guitar, but I don't think it was the same one.

I think you've got to talk to him or this could really become the long-drawn out soap opera you said it could. I mean it will be like the bold and the beautiful where you can miss a few episodes and then when you turn it on next it feels like you haven't missed a thing?

You're right. Those pictures are pretty weird. Neither Jason nor Molly look like themselves (except for Molly's hair).
The pic of him touching up his hair is on one of the other links, but I don't exactly have time to search for it now... I've gotta go to church soon.

SEE? SEE? ; ::)D Hehe... good thing I have finished TSH months ago, at least I got some of my attention towards schoolwork. Despite Christian's 'gangliness', as opposed to Donna Tartt's description of Henry who is supposed to be big... Christian is HIM. There's a fluttering softness about Henry Winter behind the steeliness. Hm. I am in the middle of Kundera's "The Unbearable Lightness of Being"... no, the characters there are not so Christian as I imagine (though I know he can play any roles) since that we have a polygamous man despite his love for his wife and another man who is in-love with this woman who cannot seem to have found love ever (so far. Or maybe she doesn't acknowledge love?) The language though, as translated (Kundera is French-Czech, so am not sure what language it was originally written in), is something Christian would probably be uttering, talking initially about Nietzsche's myth of the 'eternal return', and reasoning with the line "Es muss sein!" from one of Beethoven's sonatas. I can see that Christian can effectively portray characters who are either disturbed, deranged or highly intelligent that borders to schizophrenia (Christian as John Nash? Hm.) He's an extremes kind of characterization, I think, and if ever he plays a 'normal' person, there will always be something lurking beneath ::)the surface. Yeah, I quite remember, Christian should do an "Il Postino"... hey, he could play the postman... and at the same time, read Neruda for the OST! How about Christian in Arthur Miller's "Death of a Salesman"? Or maybe, oh yes, as Jay Gatsby. I hate Daisy Buchanan though, i don't see what men in the 20s saw in women like her
