■ブレンダン・フレイザー、クリスとの出会いを語る
あ、これはただ「タイムトラベラー/きのうからの恋人」の台本読み合わせに日に初めて
会った時、クリス様がボウルいっぱいのハラぺーニョ（ものすごい辛い唐辛子）をむしゃむしゃ
食べてて、「おえぇー、これが僕の親父役かぁ」とびっくらした、という話。
おまけに台詞を言う前にレモンの輪切りをしゃぶる癖（！）があり、ドレッシング・ガウンの
ポケットの中と、トイレにはしゃぶりつくしたレモンの輪切りが一杯とか。ニンニクが好き
（くさそう！）とか書いてあります。全文は以下に。
Brendan
Fraser, Actor
[when asked about his first impression of Walken] "He seemed
very cryptic, but beneath it, he had
a wry sense of humor. At the reading
when I met him, he was eating a bowl of jalape peppers as
if they were
lozenges! [Laughs] And I thought, 'That's my dad!' I loved him from The Dead
Zone, That was a favorite film of mine. He's
an entertainer of the highest
order. He had a ritualｭ he'd suck lemons before he had to speak a
mouthful of
dialogue. So there were little chewed-up lemon wedges hidden all over the set,
in his
pockets, in his bathroom. And he ate a lot of garlic, too. I think
he's based on his taste senses."
