Updates from a fantastic fan



Christina's Corner

Christina Soberon-Llort is a Christopher Lloyd fan who I met shortly after I made this site public. She's as big a fan of Lloyd as I am, and she has been supplying me with a lot of information regarding his current projects for two years now. So I thought I'd give her a forum where she can share the latest information she finds in her many Internet and library searches. She has been quoted as saying, "No es un chiste!" ;-) (She's gonna kill me for that.) Take it away, Christina!

August 31, 2005 -- Christina's thoughts on Admissions:

Admissions is the tale of a high school senior, Evie, who's in the midst of her college interviews. Evie's sister, Emily, has savant syndrome and can recite poetry after hearing it only once. Their mother, Martha, overhears Emily reciting Evie's original poetry. Not knowing that Evie writes her own poetry, Martha believes that the poetry is Emily's own creation: a remarkable accomplishment for a savant. Not sure that the poetry Emoly is reciting isn't already published, Martha enlists the help of Evie's English teacher, Stewart, to verify the originality of the poems.

This film has a lot of layers, and is quite complex with several subtleties presented in the characters. For instance, Evie is sabotaging all of her interviews at prestigious universities in an attempt to remain at home so she can stay with her sister. Meanwhile, her relationship with her mother is strained, not because they do not love each other, but because Martha has given all of her attention to Emily. There is no jealousy or resentment on Evie's part; she understands that her sister requires more attention, and is aware that their mother copes with enormous guilt for Emily's condition. However, this has resulted in a lack of a solid relationship between mother and daughter.

The male characters in the film are also tragic. They are both in love with women who are not able to enter into a romantic relatinship. Christopher Lloyd's performance as Stewart is subtle and yet powerful. The exit of his character leaves the viewer wanting more. Personally, I felt his character was slightly underdeveloped and could have used another 5 minutes of screentime to flesh him out. Still, his scenes with Amy Madigan are very good. Both actors play off of each other extremely well. When Martha reaches her hand out to touch Stewart during her departure, you feel the sadness both characters harbor. Asked if he needs anything at the end of the movie, Lloyd's timing and manner in responding makes you realize Stewart's isolation.

Overall, I would certainly recommend this movie to any Lloyd fan. He puts in a solid dramatic performance. And while his character could have used another scene to make him feel more whole and developed, the performance is strong enough that it does not disappoint. In fact, the performances by all involved are quire good. Lauren Ambrose is an amazing young talent who proves she can carry a movie. Amy Madigan and John Savage ("The Deer Hunter" and "The Onion Field") are welcome presences in any movie and do a nice job here. Fran Kranz plays the boy-next-door with realistic and likeable charm. And Taylor Roberts plays a savant with realism and poignancy, not in the more typical over-the-top manner that seems to haunt mentally challenged characters.

The extras are lacking, but that shouldn't deter one from giving this DVD a chance.

September 14, 2002

Hello fellow fans, As surely as the summer months keep producing unbearably high temperatures, our favorite actor continues to surface in new projects and releases. Ok, that was a dumb comparison, but I wanted to vary my opening a bit. ;) Yes, fellow fans, there are many updates to report, mainly in the schedule of upcoming DVD releases and completed projects making their debut. As reported earlier, the Back to the Future trilogy will be released onto DVD in a boxed set. A review of the Region 4 DVDs (Australia) has been posted on the following DVD Web site: http://www.michaeldvd.com.au/Reviews/ The reviewers were fortunate enough to get a hold of the DVDs before their Region 4 release later in August and offer an exclusive look at the discs. The reviews for all three films were VERY positive and make me anxious for their release here in Region 1. As you read the review, keep in mind that the Region 1 DVDs will contain a few extra features that the R4 DVDs lack, such as commentary from Michael J. Fox and the music video of "Power of Love" on the Back to the Future Part 1 disc (which features Christopher Lloyd in a short and funny cameo at the beginning of the video). Again, a full list of the features for the DVDs for different regions can be found at www.bttf.com/dvd/ and be sure to keep checking www.bttfmovie.com, Universal's official website of the release of the trilogy on DVD. On a side note, a new trailer for the DVDs can be found at the official site, and a recent visit promises a huge update and overhaul to the site in the near future, so keep checking it out. In other DVD news, the release date of the One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest: Collector's Edition has been announced as September 24th. The DVD from Warner Brothers will boast a commentary from director Milos Foreman, along with deleted scenes, and a 48-minute documentary on the making of the film. I sincerely hope it is the Completely Cuckoo documentary since I've heard GREAT things about it. Another special bonus in the world of DVD releases is the re-release of Star Trek 3: The Search for Spock as a special collector's edition. Like the release of Cuckoo's Nest, Star Trek 3 seemed like a huge disappointment on DVD since so much more could have been done with the disc, considering the fan base support for it (ever met a Trekie??). Luckily, I never got around to buying this DVD since I had a sneaking suspicion it would come out again later with more features (lets out sigh of relief). According to Paramount Studios, this 2-disc release will include the movie in widescreen format, the trailer, interviews with the actors (including Lloyd), and 3 different featurettes regarding certain aspects of the film (I know one is for the Klingon costumes/make up, and another is about speaking Klingonese). As many of us know, Lloyd actually made himself fluent in the language of Klingonese in order to make his speech sound more natural (Rev. Jim would be proud!). Anyway, this DVD will be available on October 22nd (date sound familiar to anyone?). In other DVD news, Suburban Commando will be released on September 3rd and The Onion Field will also be released on DVD on September 17th. At this rate, I'm thinking they just need to re-release Who Framed Roger Rabbit? on DVD as a special edition for all to be right in the world. ;) In other news outside of DVD releases, I've managed to obtain and read a copy of the 4th draft of the script for the Lloyd film A Fate Totally Worse Than Death. Though Lloyd filmed this movie a while ago, it has been sitting in post-production and awaiting distribution for who-knows how long. Although the script does not identify a cast list for the characters, I am willing to wager money that Lloyd plays the character of Mr. Yancy, the English teacher at the high school and sponsor of the A/V club. How do I know this is who he plays? Well, it's really the only male character who isn't a high-schooler, so I guess that was my process of elimination logic. In case you don't know, the movie is about 3 snobby/popular girls with a dark secret concerning the death of a classmate who begin to age prematurely at a disturbing rate. It's basically a teen thriller with quite a few funny parts sine it kinda pokes fun at the horror genre. I laugh out loud at least a dozen times while reading it, so I imagine the humor translates well on film. The part of Mr. Yancy is pretty substantial and appears it quite a few scenes according to this draft of the script (I have no way of knowing how closely this draft resembles the final shooting script). I don't like to give away too many spoilers in public forums, so if you have questions regarding the plot or anything else in the script, drop me an email. I also have some updates regarding TV news (yes, I know my updates are long, but bear with me). If anyone out there has been watching the PBS series Cyberchase this past month, then you may have seen the 6 new episodes that have debuted. I would guess this is a sign of the show's success and popularity as an entertaining and educational tool for children. The show does an excellent job of blending action with humor and somehow promoting important mathematical concepts such as symmetry, measuring area, and space perception. Makes me wish the show had been around when I was a kid (not that I was poor in math, but goodness, the math themed shows back in the 80s were boring!). So, the show now has a grand total of 19 episodes airing, a definite sign of success. Not sure how many of you know this, but in April of 2001, TNT issued a press release regarding a TV show they were developing that was set to take place in the 1940s during the early years of television. The show, called The Big Time, was centered around a television network and its challenges, and each episode would follow a cast of characters who were employees or somehow attached to the network including a producer, a janitor, a musician, and a network executive w/ his wife, and an ad agent. Molly Ringwald was attached to the project as one of the main characters (the network head's new bride) and Christopher Lloyd was set to guest star in the pilot as the "brains behind Empire Television whose engineering brilliance has poised the network on the cutting edge of a new era" (from the press release). Since the press release, I hadn't heard a thing regarding the status of this project until recently. A VERY reliable source has informed me that TNT has decided to not air the show as a series (too bad since I really like period pieces), but will air the 2 hour pilot (I guess as a TV-movie or something). Lloyd was not going to appear as a regular cast member anyway, but keep your eyes peeled for an air date sometime in October. So, looks like September, October, and December will be an exciting time! Well, sorry that this entry has been so long, but I hope you've found the updates worthwhile. 'Til next time! Christina

July 6, 2002

Hello all and greetings from rainy-hot Florida!

Let’s start off this entry with some wonderful news. The Back to the Future trilogy will be out on DVD on December 17th! That’s right, after who knows how long, Universal has officially sent out a press release boasting of the upcoming release. As you can imagine, they are cramming a TON of really cool extras onto these 3 discs, including commentaries, deleted scenes, music videos, outtakes, behind the scenes featurettes, and trivia. International DVD release dates for the trilogy vary (with most coming out before the Region 1 date of December 17th), so check out www.bttf.com/dvd/ for full details as well as Universal’s official website for the DVDs www.bttfmovie.com.

I’m particularly excited about this because I can recall getting a DVD player for Christmas in 1998 and thinking how I couldn’t wait to play the Back to the Future movies on it. After a 4 year wait, I’ll finally get the chance! The DVDs will be a particularly nice replacement for my current copies since my Part 3 VHS copy is a bit grainy from either too much use or being left in a hot car one too many times. ;)

In other DVD news, the film One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest will be released again on DVD as a Special Edition. Many of you who already own the current DVD for this title may be wondering why this is being done. Well, I’ve come up with a couple reasons that may explain it (though keep in mind that this is just a theory). First, Cuckoo’s Nest was one of the earlier titles from Warner Brothers studio to be released on DVD, before it was certain that the format would even catch on to the masses. So, not a lot was invested into the disc, aside from a widescreen transfer and a few pieces of trivia. Second, countless DVD reviewers and consumers were shocked that the current DVD is inferior to the Laser Disc version of the film, which was a special edition. The LD came with a think making-of booklet and also contained the 1998 “Completely Cuckoo” documentary on the making of the film (even Lloyd gives an interview for the documentary). It is one of the best LD’s out there, and it’s a shame the DVD is so lacking in extras. So One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest is getting a DVD revamp and the Special Edition should be hitting stores in the near future (an official release date has not yet been announced).

As for current projects, Lloyd is currently appearing in previews for the New York Shakespeare Festival’s production of Twelfth Night. No reviews are available until the play’s official opening in late July. However, you can check out pictures of the star-studded production’s rehearsal at www.broadway.com. Click on Photo Op (under Features) and you should see the rehearsal link. The official website of the play can be found at www.shakespeareincentralpark.com. I’ve heard that Lloyd resembles his Judge Doom character in Who Framed Roger Rabbit as far as wardrobe and such in his portrayal of the pompous and self absorbed Malvolio.

Now, for updates on future projects. The film Interstate 60 has a distributor, IDP Distributions, and is scheduled to be released in the fall. This film looks like a real treat, with many cameos by actors I rather enjoy including Ann-Margaret, Michael J. Fox, Kurt Russell, and of course Christopher Lloyd (no, Lloyd and Fox do not have any scenes together). The film stars another actor I really like, Gary Oldman. [Nicole's note: Gary Oldman appeared opposite Christopher Lloyd in Track 29.] So, be sure to check this one out when it’s released.

Another film update is for 5-25-77, Patrick Read Johnson’s semi-biographical film about a boy coming of age and choosing to follow his dream of becoming a film director on the day Star Wars came out. I’ve never been the biggest fan of the Star Wars movies, but I’ve read the script and it’s really good. Patrick Read Johnson has stated in an interview that he extended Lloyd’s part as the owner of the movie theater and has already filmed his part for the trailer and that Lloyd is actually the only person who speaks in the trailer. You can check out the official website and see some pictures at www.moonwatcher.com. Go to the Movies section and follow the 5-25-77 link.

And finally, in the June 28th edition of the Virginia newspaper Richmond Times-Dispatch has reported Lloyd’s casting in a film that may be shot in Virginia. The film is called The Final Witness and is based on the Randolph Murder Trial. If you’re from the south eastern part of the United States, you’ve probably heard of the Randolph family, whether you realized it or not. The Randolphs were an aristocratic family in Virginia (Thomas Jefferson was related to them) that were incredibly influential in the history of the south east. I know one of the freshman dorms at Duke is named after a Randolph family member, and that’s in North Carolina. Anyway, according to the newspaper, which interviewed the director of the film, Lloyd is cast to play none other than Patrick Henry, one of the most famous orators in U.S. history and key figure during the Revolutionary times. Henry was one of the defending lawyers in the trial (along with John Marshall, talk about the dream team!), so I expect it to be an incredible juicy role for this 18th century drama. Others cast include Harry Connick, Jr. as Randolph, Tom Berenger as the sheriff, and Richard Chamberlain as the judge.

Hope you’ve found this to be informative! Stay tuned for more career updates as they unfold!

April 29, 2002

Hello all! There's much happening in the world of our favorite actor, so let's get to it. While his theater career is soaring on Broadway at the current moment, it hasn't slowed down his movie career by the slightest. As many of you have probably heard by now, Mr. Lloyd lends his voice in the movie Hey Arnold! that is set to hit theaters June 28, 2002. He joins Jennifer Jason Leigh and Paul Sorvino in providing his voice to the big screen adventure based on the hit Nickelodeon television show. The official site can be viewed at http://www.nick.com/all_nick/movies/heyarnold/.

Also, there's Haunted Lighthouse, a 3D film based on R.L. Stine's Haunted Lighthouse book. This film is directed by Joe Dante and will premiere at Sea World and Busch Gardens sometime this year in specially equipped theaters at the parks capable of special effects of an ultra-sensory nature such as moving seats, smell, water, etc. This movie reunites Mr. Lloyd with Lea Thompson (who's made 5 movies with Lloyd) and Michael McKean (Clue). Lloyd portrays Capt. Jack, a likeable guy who cares for the kids featured in the movie. "Weird Al" Yankovic cameos as a waiter.

Another completed work is Interstate 60. It seems this film has finally picked up a domestic distributor and will be coming out later this fall. The film has already debuted at the Newport Beach Film Festival on April 13th. The distributor is IDP Distribution, which is the joint venture created this year to market and distribute feature films in the United States for Samuel Goldwyn films and Fireworks productions. All the information available regarding Lloyd's character is that he plays someone named Ray, and is not one of the principles in the cast (which is really limited to James Marsden and Gary Oldman). However, Lloyd joins an incredible list of supporting actors including Michael J. Fox (the two do not have a scene together), Kurt Russell, and Ann Margaret among other notables.

As for DVD releases, there's plenty of news. Disney has just released the DVD to Angels in the Outfield (released April 23rd). In typical Disney fashion, there does not seem to be any special features on the disc, which is a shame because so much could have been done regarding demonstrations of the special effects (especially regarding the angels). This disappoints me greatly because the same treatment was given to the DVD of Who Framed Roger Rabbit, a perfect example of a DVD with great potential to be loaded with extras, but fails to do so for who-knows-what reason Disney has. Anyway, I have yet to view the DVD transfer for Angels in the Outfield, but I imagine it's worth adding to your collection for the picture and sound transfers if nothing else.

Wish You Were Dead imageOther DVDs coming out include Lady in Red (April 30th), Wish You Were Dead (May 21st), The Pagemaster (May 28th), and Goin' South (June 4th). I'm particularly excited about Wish You Were Dead and The Pagemaster, both for different reasons. The Pagemaster DVD ought to be a real treat, for it's loaded with extras. It will contain theatrical trailers, a featurette, the "Dream Away" music video, and the option to view the movie in fullscreen or widescreen. Nice, huh? I'm also eagerly anticipating the Wish You Were Dead DVD for obvious reasons, mainly that the film was never released in the U.S. and so we've never had the opportunity to see it, except in the film festival circle. The DVD was released in Europe last year and has done well, so I guess those in charge figured it was about time it was released here. Lloyd plays the character of Bruce Billings, an insurance investigator and boss of the main character, played by Carey Elwes. Others in the movie include Mary Steenburgen (don't know if she has any scenes with Lloyd), Billy Ray Cyrus (who's scene is heavily involved with Lloyd's character), Gene Simmons (from the band Kiss), and several other familiar faces. [Nicole's note... check out a review from VideoPremireAwards.com.] Of course, I'm also excited about the other DVD releases, particularly since they are movies from the 70s, and so we are treated to a pre-"Taxi" Lloyd. The Goin' South DVD will also be in widescreen, so it's something to look forward to. Also, the eagerly awaited and highly anticipated Back to the Future movies seem to be FINALLY coming to DVD late this year (hopefully in time for the holidays). Universal has launched a Web site to begin promotions, and a trailer can be found on the site. The address is bttfmovie.com.

In case anyone's interested, I would suggest investing in the book Film Stories: Screenplays as Story, Volume 1 by Michael Roemer. This book features the screenplay for Lloyd's film Pilgrim, Farewell and so is a rare treat for any fan. Roemer directed and wrote the film, and so he is able to provide a nice intro to the screenplay concerning the filming of the movie. In case you don't know, the movie is about a woman who is dying of cancer and is trying to patch up her relationship with her estranged daughter, her pregnant sister, and her lover. Lloyd plays her boyfriend, a rather substantial and interesting character, if the screenplay is any indication.

As for television, aside from the entertaining "Cyberchase" and reruns of "Taxi", NBC will be celebrating its 75th anniversary. As part of the lineup, they will broadcast a collection of bloopers and outtakes from some of their shows throughout the history of the network. One of the shows that contains such outtakes is none other than "Taxi". I'm not sure as to how many bloopers of "Taxi" there are and whether Lloyd was involved in any, but it should be interesting and amusing to watch nonetheless. That particular segment ("NBC's Funniest Outtakes") will air Tuesday, May 14, 8-9 p.m. ET.

That's all for now, but there shall be more… :-)

January 3, 2002 -- Hello everyone, I’m finally back with a new entry. Many apologies for the delay in getting this to Nicole, but I’m sure anyone who has been through finals at college knows why it’s almost impossible to get anything other than studying done. Okay, but now that it’s out of the way and I’ve taken a couple weeks to relax, I have much to share with all of you fellow fans in the world of Lloyd.

First off, we have a few things coming up on television that many of you will be interested in. Let’s begin with the bad news: “Taxi” has been moved back on the lineup on TVLand from the spot of 12:30 AM EST to 1:00 AM EST. I’m not sure why this change has been made, but rest assured that many good shows that came on at night were moved back a bit, including “Barney Miller” and “All in the Family”. Check your local listings to confirm the 1:00 AM airing time.

Now, for the good news. Coming up this month are the two episodes of “Barney Miller” in which Christopher Lloyd guest starred. Personally, I’ve only seen one of them, so I’m definitely anticipating the other one. First, the episode “The Vandal” will air on January 11th at 2:00 AM EST on TVLand (“Barney Miller” used to air at 11:30 PM EST, but has been moved back due to scheduling changes at TVLand). I’ve seen this episode and let me tell you, it’s definitely worth staying up for. Lloyd puts in a very funny performance as a man who vandalizes the squad room due to grievances he has against Captain Miller. Lloyd is quite young in this episode (pre-“Taxi”) and is funny, yet dramatic as well. The other episode “Food and Fellowship” aka “Open House” airs at 2:00 AM EST on January 22nd on TVLand. I have not seen this episode before, but I understand that Lloyd portrays a guy with issues pertaining to women. The episode is about an open house held at the precinct, for which only 3 hungry vagrants attend for the free food.

Next, I have updates concerning new projects. As you may recall, it was announced last February that Lloyd had signed on to provide the voice for the villain The Hacker on the show “Cyberchase” for PBS, set to debut in 2002. Well, wait no longer! The show will first air on January 21st at 4:30 PM EST and is set to air each weekday at that time. As a side note, Gilbert Gottfried will also lend his voice to the show. Lloyd voices the character of The Hacker, a villain who tries to take control of cyberspace. In order to thwart him, 3 Earth kids must rely on their math and problem solving skills to outwit the evil Hacker. You can find out more about the show (and interact as well as view webisodes) at the official site at http://pbskids.org/cyberchase/. [Nicole's note: Check out that link for the following quote about the character The Hacker, "Favorite movie: 'Who Killed (sic) Roger Rabbit.' He especially liked the wonderful Judge Doom guy." LOL!]

Also, I have confirmed that Christopher Lloyd will have a cameo in the film “5-25-77”. Based on the true life experience of real life director Patrick Read Johnson, the film, named after the day “Star Wars” came out, is based on the coming of age of a teenage boy who has dreams for becoming a film director. Patrick Read Johnson also directed another Lloyd film, “When Good Ghouls Go Bad”. You can find the script at Johnson’s production company website Moonwatcher at http://www.moonwatcher.com Just go to the scripts link and then click on 5-25-77. I read it and found it to be a compelling story. Mr. Johnson himself emailed me to confirm Lloyd’s cameo in the film, so I guess it’s final. :)

As for older projects, the DVD for “The Adventures of Buckaroo Bonzai Across the 8th Dimension” is now out in Special Edition format. I bought it a couple days ago and have enjoyed it thoroughly. Lloyd is mentioned a couple times though, not surprisingly, he is not available for interview. However, the director and special effects supervisor show the meticulous make up process during the documentary that Lloyd and the other villains had to go through. It certainly makes you appreciate the final product. Also, there are many deleted scenes in the DVD, some of which contain Lloyd. A definite must-have for all Lloyd fans.

That's it for now. More to come in the near future!

October 27, 2001 -- Hello everyone! Well, there are many updates in the world of our favorite actor, so let's start with those reports. For upcoming appearances, the plate is rather full. On November 8th at 8:30 Eastern time, the live action comedy "The Tick" will premiere on Fox. Lloyd has a cameo in the first 10 minutes of the show, appearing as the corporate boss of an accounting firm, Mr. Fishladder, who fires one of the main characters (Arthur) because he comes to work dressed up in a moth costume. Though not a large part, Lloyd's character gives the actor the opportunity to be reunited with the director of the show, Barry Sonnenfeld ("The Addams Family" movies). I've heard from others that Lloyd's cameo is very funny and the pilot episode is great. This is something that I hve personally looked forward to since I was a fan of the short lived animated series "The Tick", based on the comic strip. Lloyd, however, will only appear in the pilot and will not be a regular on the show. If you're into witty spoofs, then this is definitely a show you will enjoy. So, make sure you're tuned to Fox on Thursday night.

Also, on November 9th, Kids World is scheduled to be released theatrically nationwide, according to the official website at http://www.kidsworldonline.com. This is a movie I've defintely been looking forward to and can't wait to see (particularly since the film's release date has been pushed back at least 4 times, originally scheduled to come out in October of 2000). But it looks like November 9th will actually be the release date since the official website has definitely gone through a nice uplift and promotions and heavily under way. [Nicole's note: Yeah, I've heard that one before. ;-) I hope it's true this time and they're not going to push it back again.] According to Blake Foster's Official Fanclub website, the trailer to the movie can be currently seen in "Max Keebler's Big Move." Keep your eyes peeled and heada out to the movie theaters on November 9th to support Lloyd's latest major theatrical release. For those of you who may have forgotten, Lloyd portrays Leo, a man who suffers from a mental condition which causes his brain to maintain a 9 year old's mental capacity. Lloyd is reported to have a given a very inspired and touching performance, so you shouldn't be disappointed. On a side note, Lloyd filmed this movie the summer of 1999 in New Zealand, when he was contacted and asked to play Fagin in the Sundance Theatre's production of "Oliver!". As soon as filming wrapped up, Lloyd went straight to Sundance, Utah and had less than two weeks to learn the choreography and lines before opening night. What a pro! (And work-a-holic!)

In other news, Lloyd's movie When Good Ghouls Go Bad has debuted on the Fox Family Channel. It will continued to be aired several times over the next week asa part of Fox's "Thirteen Days of Halloween" promotion. I watched this movie on DVD recently and I would recommend it to any Lloyd fan as well as anyone who enjoys a funny Halloween movie. The child actors in this film are VERY good (something you rarely witness these days) and Lloyd is great as usual. He has some pretty dramatic moments that he executes extremely well with a heartfelt conviction I've come to expect from him. For more information on the making of this film anad on working with Lloyd, I highly recommend reading an interview by the director Patrick Read Johnson at FilmForce: http://filmforce.ign.com/articles/305805p1.html. The interview has some GREAT insights on Mr. Lloyd and is an enjoyable interview since Mr. Johnson makes the interview very informative as well as humorous.

Well, folks, that's it for now. A new entry to come soon!

October 22, 2001 -- Hello fellow fans and welcome to Christina's Corner. This section of Nicole's site serves 3 main purposes: 1) To provide frequent updates on Lloyd's appearances and his projects. 2) To give fans information and analytic reviews of Lloyd's performances throughout his career, offering a behind-the-scenes persepective when possible. 3) To give Nicole a much deserved break from the stresses and effort required to track an artist's career and maintain an innovative website.

Visitors should also expect to find other miscellaneous things such as links or trivial tidbits I find on the web or in articles that relate to Mr. Lloyd such as interviews with people who have worked with him and comment on that experience.

Alright, now that I've introduced this page, it is only fitting that I briefly introduce myself. My full name is Christina Maria Soberon-Llort and I'm an undergraduate student at Duke University. I'm actually from Tallahassee, FL, and my hobbies include playing soccer and watching movies. I'm from a hispanic household (yes, I speak Spanish fluently), have one younger brother, and an adorable beagle named Darwin (named after Sir Charles Darwin who took a famous voyage on the HMS Beagle, get it? got it? good.), whom I miss terribly while away at college. I've been a fan of Mr. Lloyd since late 1993/early 1994 when I made the connection that most of my favorite characters were portayed by the same gifted actor (talk about acting range!).

Okay, enough with the biography, on with more relevant things. If you have any comments, suggestions, questions, etc., please send me an email at cllort@yahoo.com

Enjoy!
