Cine: Seis grados de separación (1993)

La noche promete ser de una importancia esencial para John Flanders, "Flan", Kittredge (Donald Sutherland) y su esposa Ouisa (Stockard Channing, nominada al Oscar a la Mejor Actriz): están frente a su amigo e inversor Geoffrey Miller (Sir Ian McKellen), con quien está a punto de cerrar la venta de una pintura de Paul Cézanne. El negocio es millonario, pero les cae la inesperada visita de un muchacho que afirma haber sido asaltado. Éste se hace llamar Paul (Will Smith, que entonces estaba saboreando las mieles del éxito como rapero y como protagonista de la sitcom "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air") y, además, los sorprende confirmándoles que es compañero de la universidad de sus hijos y que es hijo del gran actor Sidney Poitier. Su carisma es indudable y no tarda en sorprenderlos con su profusa cultura literaria, sus dotes culinarios y anécdotas variadas sobre su presunto padre.

Conmovidos por tan extraordinaria personalidad, la pareja, luego de sanar su herida, le permite pasar la noche en su casa y le da cincuenta dólares. A la mañana siguiente, le encuentran en la cama con un prostituto (Lou Milione) y, en medio de un gran escándalo, echan a ambos del departamento noyorquino. Hablando con amigos, descubren que el modus operandi del muchacho es similar y emprenden la tarea de buscar a tan extraño, aunque encantador, personaje, para intentar evitar que continúe con su desquiciada cruzada.

La historia es increíble, pero real: su inspiración es David Hampton, un adolescente que estafó a estrellas de la magnitud de Melanie Griffith, Calvin Klein o Gary Sinise haciéndose pasar por David Poitier, hijo de, claro, Sidney Poitier. Hampton recibió una condena que iba de los dieciocho meses a los cuatro años de prisión y murió en 2003 por complicaciones del sida. Luego llegaría la pieza teatral, escrita (al igual que el guión de esta película) por John Guare. La dirección recayó en el australiano Fred Schepisi, quén se valió de talentos actorales como Mary Beth Hurt, Heather Graham, Bruce Davison, Richard Masur, Eric Thal, Kelly Bishop, Anthony Rapp, J. J. Abrams (sí, el director de "Star Wars, el despertar de la fuerza" y "Star Trek") y, en el rol de Trent Conway, el primer incauto qua cae ante los encantos de Paul, Anthony Michael Hall.

Just started watching the first episode of BBC Three comedy from 2010+

Him & Her

& Russell Tovey is adorable and funny!

Been watching lots of Andrew Scott stuff over the last month and a half due to Fleabag Season 2, obvi, 😊 👍and this / Russell Tovey comedy stuff seems kind of similar / or like six degrees of separation related things to watch, and actors that are in the same projects

Sooo new show potentially for me to binge on 😄 🙌✨

Roll on episode 2 ✌️🍿🖥

It really is a small world. My ER Dr. from Fri was a super nice doc who was so concerned for me he gave me his cellphone number in my discharge papers and said text him with any questions. Yesterday afternoon I did text him and explained that initially I felt better but the pain returned. He advised me to go back to the ER, which I did. After being released I attempted to call 3 different urologist for a follow up as directed but they were booking REALLLY far out. So I texted my hs friend Nina for recommendations since she works at Vassar. While we were texting this conversation took place. What a coincidence right?!? Thanks Nina for the advice and thank your super sweet hubby for me, he really did go above and beyond to help me! #itsasmallworld #sixdegreesofseparation #gooddoctor #thankyou https://www.instagram.com/p/CRl2PQ1IzLTOWkPEQ8yrGfARed8kHV5rustex40/?utm_medium=tumblr

Pre Helang Books days... Tadaffee Taksen, the father of the two boys in the second photograph was my colleague. In fact, we later started a bespoke design company together called ‘Pereka’ or Designers. The icon for ‘Pereka’ was the mousedeer or kancil of the Malay fable ‘Hikayat Sang Kancil’. Unfortunately, Tadaffee left for Shanghai while I left for the USA and ‘Pereka’ was shelved. Before leaving, Tadaffee designed seven (7) postcards of Gedung Kuning (coincidentally, Kampong Gelam’s postal code was Singapore 7). We kept in touch all those years, only to find out recently that we are related through our great-grandfathers who lived in Kampong Gelam. Talk about six degrees of separation. Small world indeed! To celebrate Gedung Kuning book 10th anniversary, a revised edition will be published this year. Watch out for it! #sixdegreesofseparation #family #gedungkuning #kampunggelam #friendship #nonfiction #roots #heritage #history #postcards #designers #pereka #kancil #mousedeer #relatives #singapore #hongkong #archipelagoconsultancyrocks #helangbooks (at Kampong Glam, Singapore) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHcBUpxBJoj/?igshid=4h7h8h3gmllc
