That's nice. I've never had the pleasure of meeting a celebrity. 
He was also in two versions of Titanic. He was a baddie who was Billi Zane's friend, ironically enough in the big screen version and he was on t.v in another (older) version a few weeks ago I caught it on t.v, where he seemed to be playing a nicer character but was still Titanic. didn't catch it all though I fell asleep lol. Love Thomas Eckhardt he's a fantastic baddie wow I wish I could say I'd met him lucky you! :)

I loved Warner's memorable performance in STRAW DOGS, and I loved this:
Ooooh nasty! I can't believe I didn't realise that was him I've seen the Omen before! lol. x

Being a Seattle actor I know several people with smaller roles in the pilot (one was even in a play of mine). And I've hobnobbed with loads of actors at the Fest over the years. You know what? They're just people. Some pretty dang cool people, but people nonetheless...
He was in Straw Dogs!?! Oh man, did he play one of the thugs? I need to check up on where some of these actors are now.
Also, I saw John Mackinrow at my local park, I saw Robert De Niro in my local CarpetRight and I saw a Neighbours star in Starbucks.
There was a fiish..iinn the percolatrr!
I am very lucky that in my profession i do get to meet some great people but yep they are just people doing a job. the only one that made me go a bit like 'whoa' was Helen Mirren, but then she is the Queen! The thing is i worked with David for 3 months and we chatted everyday and i didnt even twig on even though ive been fan since i was a teenager - what a numpty i am!! What an opportunity missed to quiz him! And yep he's the guy in the Omen, Titanic, hundreds of other projects....and Scream 2!!

Warner played the village idiot in STRAW DOGS... Dustin Hoffman hits him with his car and takes him to his house while the angry villagers look for him because he has strangled a girl...
He plays Jack the Ripper (to Malcolm McDowell's H.G. Wells) in Time After Time, and the devil in Time Bandits!!!
Time Bandits - classic!! x

Great call Chris, He played an excellent villain, (is that an oxymoron)? One of my favorite movies growing up.

I'm jealous. I don't know anyone that was in Twin Peaks.
*chokes up*
Oh well...there's always tomorrow. I wasn't raised no quitter!
"Harry, I'm going to let you in on a little secret. Every day, once a day, give yourself a present. Don't plan it, don't wait for it, just let it happen. Could be a new shirt at the men's store, a catnap in your office chair, or two cups of good, hot, black coffee. Like this." -Dale Cooper
I've actually been stalking Madchen for quite sometime now. But alas....damn restraining order! lol

For those that want to see what David was like in the RSC Histories season, he's the guy in the fat suit on the right. He was playing Falstaff in Henry IV.

My first memory of David Warner was in a late 60's movie called Morgan, where he plays a mad, young communist obsessed with gorillas. Must track that down and watch it again. Fun actor.
