Roger, thank you for the comment and recap of that day and event. I have always been a fan of George Michael and for him to see our work and let us use the scene is a gift. I love that day and will never forget it. I loved working with you, Ian, and that crew. What a moment to have been a part of the experience.

It’s been discussed in film as one of the greatest performances on screen. Surprised about the lack of resurgence and cultural significance not over saturating or being copied in modern film because everything about the film is a masterpiece.

Me neither -- he has exceptional talent. All I can imagine is that I gave him complete freedom, and that not all directors (or perhaps roles) are so open to that kind of behavioral extremity. In the audition he figured he wouldn't get the part so he told me to "fuck off" and threw his shoe at me and then walked out. Everyone thought he was an asshole, and I insisted that someone chase after him down the street to bring him back. He was perfect, and totally delivered what I wanted. I love him.

Really? Sounds like something from a book. Why would you want someone who could ruin your shoot and fuck up your movie? It is not like it was a complex scene, I am sure most people can do oversexed brat quite easily. I like the film but never much this part, seemed so inorganic to the flow and distracted me from the picture

This is my favorite fact about the movie, I think about it so often just for a smile. Dick’s portrayal is my absolute favorite part of the film and could have so easily been one of my least. It’s amazing how his energy was carried so accurately from the book while also being different in the right ways to translate to film. Fantastic job, love his scenes!

Its haunting, funny, entertaining, disturbing, thrilling and thought provoking. I was 17 when it came out and it really shaped my formative years following. I can't rave enough all these years later about how much I love this film. I still listen to the soundtrack to this day.

Richard acts out at dinner because his heart is broken. Richard loves Paul. But Paul loves someone else . . . The Rules of Attraction.

Ok. Just a bit of character background for this scene.: Richard and Paul have known eachother for years. Richard might be Bi, but he and Paul messed around growing up together. Richard was sent off to 'boys camp'. Richard was also subjected to 'conversion therapy' which included shock treatments. But alas, Richard is 'old money' and still loves Paul. Meanwhile Paul's mother is in love with Richard's Family money. But Paul doesn't love Richard. Anymore. But Paul and Richard can always have 'Faith'

. . But Richard "Dick" will always love Paul. It's why he was acting out at dinner and calling Paul "pretty boy". Because Richard loves Paul. He acted out because he was heartbroken that Paul was disinterested. Paul was breaking Richard's heart. The Rules of Attraction.
