Re: famous fans
For another famous Who fan, look to Academy Award-winner Nicolas Cage
(who WFang suggested should play PDBT when this list was casting its
imaginary Who movie).
In the May issue of _Movieline_, Cage described why he ate a live cockroach
during the filming of _Vampire's Kiss_. Here is the excerpt:
"Q: How come you didn't make it a fake cockroach?
A: Because I knew that you and I would be sitting and talking about it 10
years later. I wanted to do something that was punk, if you will. I had
heroes in music like the Who, who smashed their guitars. I wanted to have
that rock and roll energy, that outlaw sensibility, a mini shock wave."
Made me smile to read it.
