  • "I'll say it now-I am invincible." Alan Cumming takes a walk down memory lane as he rewatches scenes from his classic works including 'GoldenEye,' 'Romy & Michele's High School Reunion,' 'Eyes Wide Shut,' 'Spy Kids,' and 'Traitors.' Alan dishes on mastering the 'GoldenEye' pen twirl, shooting a potential sequel for 'Romy & Michele's High School Reunion,' his "gaydar" intuition for Tom Cruise and so much more.

    I’ve met him and he is exactly as saucy and delightful as you’d want him to be.

    I think he went into the details of each section the most, in comparison to other actors this show have had before.

    I so wished you got him to talk about Josie and the Pussycats. I love his performance in it. On the flip side I was terrified of him in Spy Kids.

    I love how they have all these films like Spice World and Josie and the Pussycats and never talk about them. I love Alan in both of those films. They are so weird and wonderful. Why even have them for the display. It just gives us false hope.

    I saw Alan at my airport here in New Mexico and I was too shy to say anything to him! But he was part of my childhood between spy kids and flinstones and Romy and Michele!! I was truly too stunned to speak so I just sat next to him and said nothing 😂😅

    I first becam aware of Alan in the 90s with the bbc comedy series the high life ..i loved it and its a shame they only made 1 series of 6 episodes as Alan by then was on the up and up with his film and stage career he was performing in Cabaret on stage at that time too! BUT i adore him for all the characters he has played in films and tv !

    What I like about Boris is that he's not much of a villain for James Bond as he is for Natalya. It gives her more agency in the movie, and to this day, it's one of the best indictments of incel-types. In that way, GoldenEye was ahead of its time.
