It truly is a small world.
I'm watching this lovely romantic movie,
Big Eden, about a New York artist, Henry Hart (played by
Arye Gross). He's living in New York, successfully, but alone. His grandfather has a stroke and Henry goes back to his small home town of Big Eden, Montana to take care of him.
It's rather a complex, yet simple little love story, involving Henry and his unrequited love for his childhood friend, a straight man, who loves Henry in his own way. There is a second love interest, a Native American man, named Pike Dexter, played by an actor that was hauntingly familiar to me.
I *knew*
Due South was the connection - had to be - but I couldn't place him. Thank goodness for IMDB.
Here's
Eric Schweig, first seen by me in the DS Pilot as the Inuit hunter. Oddly enough, Eric is an Inuit from Inuvik, Northwest Territories. Heh.
And on a totally not-related but weird coincidence note, Arye Gross was in a movie just after
Big Eden. The title:
Burning Down the House.
Final unrelated note - I just spent the last 20 minutes on the phone with my boss, my lead developer, and
bheerfan (who happens to be our network admin - because there is a client Web site problem. ARRRGH!!! J - the developer is at the airport, getting ready to get on a plane to Charlotte. He and another developer are meeting with said client on Monday re: a new project. My boss is in a car on the way home from her accountant. Sigh. If none of us had mobile phones, I wouldn't know about this until Monday.
Sometimes technology is not so much of a good thing.
