I really like how intimate this interview is and how close and personal he allows the interviewer to be with him. That is so cool.

Michael was great in the film he starred in and helped make called "Color Of A Brisk And Leaping Day".

He looked great when he first shaved his head, although the smoking probably contributed to both the baldness and the wrinkles - of my male friends from high school, the ones who smoked cigarettes all went bald to one degree or another (including me).

I always wondered why Michael stopped wearing hats AFTER he shaved his head.

Was that his gf at the time or was she just being ... well, Italian?
