Think "That'll do Pig"

Every time I went to take his picture, he turned slightly away.  LOL

New big screen movie coming out in 2012, based on a true story about a man in Cape Breton who fought the city and won.  He is now suing the county.  His wife had Alzheimer's and he wanted to build her a home to make life easier.  The fellow in the permit office gave him all kinds of trouble, when he finally got all the permite and built the house the fellow decided to say the house had to be demolished.  He won that battle only to have his wife die 4 months later.  This is still in the courts in Cape Breton!

His wife in the movie is the same actress who played his wife in BABE.

Amazing what you can find out by asking a few questions!

Something else to think about. Here's a current picture of him (courtesy of Wikipedia):



It might just be me, but I think he actually looks older in Babe than he does now, even though that movie came out 15 years ago (he's 71 now; he would have been in his mid-50s then).

I took mine this past week, He is a huge man.  Huge in presence as well as stature.  His waist came up to the top edge of the box on the pickup!  Make up artists can do wonders with aging or reversing the look of aging.

Can you imagine a man of his height dancing like he did in Babe?

I love Babe, but don't like all the characters I have seen him play.

Judy, how great you had a chance to see him and get some candid shots. 

Michael, thanks for the portrait type picture.
