He was so gracious with his time.
Just when the security guard announced it was time for him to leave he saw me holding up my picture I wanted to have autographed over the lady's head in front of me.
He said, "Do you have a pen?"
I had the pen ready, so he reached for it over the lady's head between us. He autographed the picture and handed it back to me. I yelled, "Thank you!"
He smiled and said to the crowd, "I'm sorry, I have to leave."
Mission accomplished!
This is the picture that Colin autographed. It was taken last January (2010) at a screening of A Single Man.
HAPPY COLIN FIRTH DAY!!
