Yes, I wear foundation. Yes, I live with a man. Yes, I’m a middle-aged fag. But I know who I am, Val. It took me 20 years to get here, and I’m not gonna let some idiot senator destroy that. Fuck the senator. I don’t give a damn what he thinks.
ROBIN WILLIAMS as ARMAND GOLDMAN in THE BIRDCAGE (1996) dir. Mike Nichols
#The Birdcage is my favorite comfort film#this might be Robin’s best performance#he’s warm he’s tired he knows who he is

Just in time to welcome @beanifred to Roger Livesey Thursday, here is a new to me bearded (!) still in which Roger is attempting to stab (?) a rather frightened fellow. Sadly there’s not more context, but we can enjoy his face all the same.

A late breaking realization, but holy shit Sam Neill is hot.
#I just watched My Brilliant Career and he was gawky AF#now I’m seeing all the Jurassic reboot press and I was like when did he become daddy#also he is besties with his pig so that’s irresistible#Sam Neill
