PLEASE READ - I met him and he's a WONDERFUL human being!!!
I live in Boston and was visting my parents several years ago in Manhattan. They live the upper East Side and it was common knowledge that at the time, he lived across the street in another high-rise, in the penthouse apt (all the doormen from building to building talk, ya know!). So anyway I was getting out of a cab late one night, just as he was walking towards his building. I usually don't bother celebrities when I spot them (I've seen a bunch, just because of where my parents live) but I just HAD to approach him and say "hi." He was, by far, a TRUE CLASS ACT. The most sweet and unassuming man I've ever met. When I raced over to say "hi," he was actually startled for a second, because I was yelling his name and he looked nervous, as if there was a young girl in trouble! (I was about 30 at the time, but everyone thinks I look like I'm about 18). So when I told him how much I've enjoyed his movies, etc, I swear to God he acted as though I was the only person who ever complimented him! He said, "that is so nice of you to say...thank you so much!" Then he started asking questions about little 'ol boring me! Like I said, he's a true class act. I hope he's coping as best as one can since Anne died *fingers crossed*
