After running errands today I was walking back to my house when I saw Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon. Now, I'm not positive it was them -- it could have been their stunt doubles -- but I'm pretty sure it was because I love them both and I feel as though I would be able to recognize them in passing. Also, when I said hello to them, a Tim Robbins sounding voice said hello back. My observations/questions are:
1. Why are they in Williamstown so early? Most of the Hollywood crowd come late-June.
2. Tim Robbins (and/or his stunt double) is huge. While I knew that he was tall, I didn't realize he was like, six and a half feet tall. Huge.
3. Susan Sarandon (or stunt double) is not as short as I thought she was. This misperception was probably a result seeing pictures in which she is standing next to her HUGE husband. Wait, are they married?
4. Susan Sarandon looks older in person. Still lovely though.
5. Tim Robbins wears funky clothes. Today he was wearing a blue bandanna and a bright purple shirt. One would think that if they were trying not to attract attention, they would stay away from bright purple...then again, they are at Williams...
Incidentally, I was walking through a common room a couple days ago to find a bunch of people watching Top Gun. It was the end of the movie where I guess Tom Cruise had blown up some bad guys or whatever, and I couldn't get over the fact that Tim Robbins was just a random guy in that movie with, like, two lines. It's TIM ROBBINS. From Shawshank Redemption! I wonder why the casting person chose a giant like Tim Robbins to stand next to little itsy-bitsy Tom Cruise in the final scene?
