Happy holidays 2009

Hi everyone, so sorry for not updating for such a long time. I have a new job which takes up a lot of my time. I’m also sorry to say that I might not be able to update as much as I used to in the months to come either.

Anyway, here’s a quick recap of all Laura news of the last couple of months:
- Laura attended the Outfest Legacy Awards in LA at the end of September. Here are some photos:

- In early December Laura started rehearsals for the play Time Stands Still, opening on Broadway on January 5th, 2010. Her co-stars are Eric Bogosian, Brian D’Arcy James and Alicia Silverstone. Visit the Manhattan Theatre Club website for more information.

- The directorial debut of Mark Ruffalo, Sympathy for Delicious is to premiere at the Sundance Film Festival in January, and is also running in the US Dramatic Competition 2010. Laura’s co-stars include Mark Ruffalo, Orlando Bloom and Juliette Lewis.

- In November, Laura shot the pilot for a potentional Showtime prime time drama series The C Word in which she plays a suburban mom, diagnosed with cancer, who tries to find the humor in the disease. Her husband is played by Oliver Platt. The decision on whether the series will be taken on by Showtime is expected in mid January.

New team member & Laura sighting

I have some great news for you today. We have another dedicated Laura fan join the team here at LLF: Amanda, whom you might know from her fantastic site on Carey Mulligan. Give her a warm welcome, I’m sure she’ll do a great job!

On a different note, even though I don’t consider this to be a gossipy site, I wanted to post what a fan reported the other day. Thanks Bob!

I happened to be next to her and her boyfriend/husband (?) today applying for a fishing license at a Wal-Mart in Lake Geneva, WI. Wanted to get her autograph, but didn’t think it would be appropriate to interfere with her vacation.

Forums closed

As announced here, I have closed the forums. There was no participation for a long time and when I emailed the members if there was any interest left, I only received one reply. So I’ve deleted the forums, but the database is backed up in case interest should pick up again. So for now please use the comments to share your opinion. Thanks!

New version

Welcome to the new version of Laura Linney Fan. Not only do we have a new layout (made by the talented Frederik), but the whole site was converted to Wordpress. You can now leave comments on my posts without me running the risk of getting spammed. Please browse around and let me know if you find any broken links. I hope you’ll enjoy the new and dynamic version of LLF.

Remembering Natasha Richardson

Amelie — Mon, 23 Mar 2009 15:06:48 +0000

Laura reportedly attended the services for Natasha last Friday as well as yesterday’s funeral along with Natasha’s family and friends.

If you want to pay tribute to Natasha too, please head over to Adoring Natasha and sign the memorial book.

Sad news

Amelie — Thu, 19 Mar 2009 08:48:10 +0000

I have just heard that Natasha Richardson, Laura’s good friend and wife of Liam Neeson, her co-star of several times, died yesterday of brain injuries suffered in a skiing accident this Tuesday.
My thoughts are with her family and friends.
She will be much missed, not just in the theatre world.

To all you LJ-friends out there, I just discovered that there’s a Laura Linney community!
To those already posting there: I saw some of you are really talented when it comes to icon-making. I’d love to post your icons on this site, so send them my way if you want them up here, too.

Happy Birthday, Laura
