Oh yes, the singing...the man has a lovely singing voice don't you think? I don't care what language it is in, he could sing jingles to me all day and I would be one happy gal.

Then watch it again. It is, all around, a very good film. Well acted by all, well directed, and an interesting story.

I have to return my copy to the library tomorrow and I don't want to. I want to keep it and hide it under my pillow for safe keeping. I am going to have to buy it off of ebay or Amazon.
He was amazing, yes it is one of the best he has done, which is saying alot because he has done so much that is wonderful.
And right on with the feeling all tingly when he sings, or even just looking...I know I get that way too!

Alan sings in Rasputin!! Oh, lord. I need to find it somewhere, somehow!! Ok, I'm off to eBay. Wish me luck! That's where I got mine. It's VHS and used, but I don't care. I got it at a good price. When I was looking, they only had one Region 1, but they get new stuff all the time. They even have several copies of Alan as Tybalt in Romeo and Juliet, but they go for about $60. Too much for my wallet. Good Luck. My fingers are crossed for you.

OMG - I was so excited . . . I ordered this off eBay last night - I was so happy . . . then today I get an alert telling me the seller has been suspended. Waaaaa! This probably means I'll never get it and will have to file a claim and now I'm tearing my hair out *goes bald* Sorry . . . had to vent

Maybe there's hope, yet. Crossing fingers and lighting candles for you.

Okay, so I am finished watching Rasputin for the first time. I absolutely loved it. It was an outstanding film. The story was simply amazing. I didn't think it was possible, because I think he is brilliant in all of his films, but Alan's performance was one of his best ever, as Rasputin. He never ceases to amaze me when he is on screen. His portrayal is just so believeable, there is no doubt he IS that character! The whole movie was done very well. I plan to watch it again tonight! I need to own this one !

Exactly, giggin, exactly! He is Rasputin, and it really is one of the best I have ever seen him in. I too, need to buy it. And that line..."when you lie with me, you lie with God" that segues into the lobby full of women waiting for him...love that line. He delivered it with such sentiment...yeah, I watched that scene again and again.
