P.S. Stop confusing me!
I admit I was pretty punchy last night, coming off a couple of intense months of work and it being the night my vacation began. But I'm watching the local entertainment guru on the evening news last night and they were doing a piece on the new Hilary Swank movie, P.S. I Love You. They had an interview with the actor who co-stars in it with her. The text beneath him as he was talking read, "Gerald Butler."
"Wait," says I, "all this time I thought it was the guy from 300, but he's Gerard Butler."
That would have been quite a stretch, I'm thinking, going from Phantom of the Opera (and getting panned for one's singing), then 300, then P.S. I Love You. But wow, that must get confusing, having two actors who look so much alike and one's Gerald Butler and one's named Gerard Butler.
This morning that wasn't quite sitting right, so I hit the IMDB. Impressive range for Mr. Gerard Butler: Phantom of the Opera, followed by 300, followed by P.S. I Love You. Looks like somebody in the newsroom caption typing staff made a wee bit of a typo.
I'm thinking of watching 300 as my Christmas movie, btw. All that festive red.
