Crispin Glover "Clowny Clown Clown"

From Atomic TV Volume 6: "Scott's Obsessions": I've had a quite unhealthy obsession with Crispin Hellion Glover ever since I saw him in River's Edge. Rumor has it that after the movie wrapped they had to go back and film an extra scene, the scene where Layne falls asleep at the traffic light, in order for movie-goers to make sense of his odd character. The clincher was when I saw Glover's "I'm strong... I can kick..." David Letterman appearance and from that point on I was a fan for life. When I opened my store, Atomic Books, I contacted Volcanic Eruptions so that Crispin's book "Rat Catching" would be one of the first books I stocked on my shelves. A few years later I was able to see a workprint of his film "What Is It?" in D.C. along with his "Big Slide Show" presentation. Utterly amazing. And as the years have passed Glover has continued to take on quirky roles without cheezing out, even in "Charlie's Angels" he played a weirdo. Perhaps his most mainstream role was in "Where the Heart Is?" but Uma Thurman was in that movie, and she was nekkid, so I gotta still cut him some slack. Crispin Glover has remained my hero for almost 20 years, and when I met him he wasn't a dick, which gives him even more bonus points. A true gentleman.More at www.atomicteevee.com
