Hi, Giuliana - welcome to the gang!

There are at least two other Italian ladies here, so you're not alone - and your English is just fine!

Please tell us your favourite Rufus role - we like to share here ;-)

Welcome Giuliana,

You are among friends here, you're English is absolutely fine no problem. Have fun exploring the site, especially the photos secton and clips. We're all a friendly lot.

Ciao and have fun. : )

thank you very very very much!
...another italian girl? ? who is?
well, I like Rufus in all his roles, but in particular "A Knight's Tale" because I have "discovered" Rufus, I watched this movie many times. And then I liked "Helen of Troy." I regret only one thing, in almost all his movies he has a tragic end ...
I like the sound of his voice and movements of his eyes when he speaks.
I like to watch his photos, he is always different, in some photos he has sweet expression, in other is a heavy or sophisticated ... I always say he is like a diamond: is unique, has many faces and shines more than a star.

Bye Giuliana

Buona Sera Giuliana,

I am of Italian heritage both parents, fathere is Barese, mom Sicilian and Spanish. You might want to see The Honest Courtesan, or Dark City, two very different roles for Ruf, He's quite amazing in both. Courtesan was filmed in Venice and the surroundings only add to the film, while Dark City is stark and futuristic. He's great in both and pretty much in any of his films. I don't know how hard his films are to acquire in Italy but you should make an effort to see Honest Courtesan. He's absolutely beautiful. Have fun exploring the site.

Ciao,

peach : )

Giuliana, I would also like to welcome you to the site. I am also of Italian heritage. My father is first generation from Abruzzi. My husband is part Sicilian and my two sons are names Vincenzo Dominic and Gian-Carlo Arturo.
I grew up in Pennsylvania but now we live in Maryland. My oldest son is studying Italian so perhaps you could correspond with him and help his Italian and he could help your English. Let me know if you think it would be helpful to you. In any event you will surely like us here. The members are all very friendly and of course have excellent taste...Rufus.
Try some of the games if you have time. I really enjoy them.

What a wonderful way to describe him, Giuliana!

PS - one of the Italians is Dreamer, and the other one (I think) is Bluenessie.

Welcome Giuliana.

Very happy you could join us. Jump right in and tell us all about yourself. We'd love to hear it.

Hello Girls!
I read your messages, and I am very happy to have found friends like you.
Piztel, I think I accept your help ... I'm always so anxious when I write English.I don't use it very often ...
I have seen Dark City, truly beautiful! I thought this is the way of Matrix. Also I have seen The Honest courtesan . I saw much of his works, not all because here in Italy he is unknown...... for now!
About me ...can I talk about me here or there is a space provided?
Can I ask one thing?, Rufus is in America now?

Arrivederci a presto! (see you soon)

[maxx02]

Yes, Rufus is in LA doing a television series called Eleventh Hour. There is a thread about it here or you can have a look at our website www.roofsewell.com

bye Giuliana

Welcome Giuliana. I hope you'll enjoy the site as much as I do. I discovered Rufus under a wig in Amazing Grace. Such a chameleon. As I'd love to learn some more Italian, I'd be glad if you dropped in some Italian phrases in your posts here. A la prossima(is that right?)

[ostrega]

ciao catdishy,
thank you for your words!
I would speak good English! I hope to learn here ... I hope!
however .. good! you wrote almost right! "alla prossima" not " a la prossima".
please correct me too! I don't offend me!

[dreamer]

All my dear friends here will forgive me if now I'm going to write Italian!

Ciao Giuliana! Finalmente un'italiana qui.
Anche tu fulminata dallo sguardo di Rufus?!!
Conosco Roof da 13 anni ormai ed ho rintracciato molti suoi film in italiano:
Marta da legare (molto divertente), Bless the child, She creature, Extreme ops/sfida all'ultima valanga, Elena di Troia, e mi dicono anche Alì Baba, ma non l'ho visto.
Assolutamente da vedere sono Tristano ed Isotta, L'amore non va in vacanza (carinissimo in generale, jude law è stupendo), l'Illusionista, La leggenda di Zorro, Il destino di un cavaliere, Cold Comfort Farm, Carrington, Dark City, l'Amleto di Kennet Branagh e per finire, Taming of the shrew (la bisbetica domata ambientata ai giorni nostri - superlativo!!!! il mio preferito ) e Charles II, solo in inglese purtroppo, li trovi in dvd su ebay, sono della BBC.
Il mio preferito ex aequo, ovvero quello che mi ha fatto innamorare di lui, l'hai già visto, è Padrona del suo destino (non so quante volte l'ho visto!!! )
Adoro Ruf ed i suoi occhi ed ho anche fatto 3 video su di lui, li trovi su YouTube qui:

Sul sito di maxx troverai tutte le foto e le informazioni che desideri, ed anche su www.aboutrufus.com/, anche se ormai è un anno che è fermo.

Allora, benvenuta nel gruppo di Rufcoliste poco anonime!

glo

ps: di dove sei? io sono di Napoli ma vivo a Roma da 24 anni

Ops! Ho dimenticato "9/11- out of the blue", anche questo in inglese lo trovi su Youtube diviso in 4 parti. Rufus è incredibilmente emozionante! La sua voce, oh quella voce! Se ti piace la sua voce devi assolutamente ascoltare "Nick Silver can't sleep", lo trovi qui www.roofsewell.com/audio.htm
Ed anche "Ode to a beautiful nude" di Neruda, che miss october ha messo in un thread qui su.
Buon weekend, con qualche film di Rufus! ;D
