	Gothamist: Crispin Glover Asks 'What Is It?'
		It's not often that the person opening the door to let you in to a press screening is the distinctive screen personality Crispin Glover but when it happened, Gothamist knew we were in for a unique afternoon.
		Most striking of course is that the actors in the film have down syndrome--save for Glover, a few women in monkey masks and a man with cerebral palsy--and they appear in modern street clothes as well as elaborate court costumes.
		crispin glover is uber unique..that is what makes him special.

		Crispin Hellion Glover (yes, that is his real name) has made a successful acting career portraying what a Victorian gentleman would kindly call "eccentrics." Contemporary film critics have been somewhat less kind, often describing Glover's performances as neurotic, twitchy or just plain odd.
		Glover set out to make a short film to prove the viability of his concept but ended up with an 82-minute feature, which is now part one of a trilogy.
		Glover eloquently countered most criticism of his casting choices in a long essay published in Apocalypse Culture, in which he questions why audiences are comfortable with Tom Hanks portraying a retarded man, but not with an actor who has Down syndrome portraying anything other than a kindhearted simpleton.

		Crispin Glover: I don't think I ever got bitten by any of them, no. If anything, it would be more of a test of anything, but I never got bitten by one.
		Crispin Glover: That would be the only one you would call that genre, but River's Edge has probably a lot more creepy feelings to it than probably Friday the 13th.
		Crispin Glover: It was funny when I did that film; I knew even at that time that it would be something to look back upon with a sense of humour on some level.

		CRISPIN GLOVER moved to Los Angeles when he was four, and began acting while still in elementary school.
		Borrowing a low but quirky voice from an old acting teacher he once knew, his posture and hand gestures seem to take on a life of their own....until he is no longer a fresh-faced high school student, but a rather sad-faced suburban male, just struggling to keep up.
		Off-camera, Glover is known as an eccentric dresser ("I prefer old clothes") and drives a 1961 convertible Studebaker.

		Crispin Glover steals the show with a decidedly weird, but compelling performance as the "alpha" of the teen pack.
		Although I found the acting of Crispin Glover (Layne) and Joshua Miller (Tim)to be too over-the-top to be 'real', the rest of the cast SOLD their roles and made this a surprisingly well-done flick.
		Crispin Glover is still unforgettable as Layne (after watching enough of "Edge" you may find it hard not to talk like him).

	Amazon.ca: Oak-Mot: Books: Crispin H. Glover (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
		Composed by Hollywood uber-oddball Crispin Hellion Glover, who's probably most famous for his portrayal of the hopelessly nebbish George McFly in Back to the Future (1985), but has made less noticeable, but more satisfying appearances in films like River's Edge (1986), Rubin and Ed (1991), Bartleby (2001), and Willard (2003).
		Oh sure, it was a book at one point, originally published back in the early 19th century, but, as he did with Rat Catching, Glover has taken a previously published work, and modified it extensively, adding drawings, photos, and his own writings to transform this fairly obscure book into something...something that defies description.
		Crispin Hellion Glover is perhaps the Burroughs of the 90's.

	Crispin Glover as the Joker?
		This is an interesting casting rumour for Batman Begins, Crispin Glover to play the Joker in the sequels to the movie.
		Glover himself is a whacked out, slightly unhinged personality in real life, has the face, and is about the right age for the role when cast against the age that Christian Bale's Bruce Wayne/Batman is.
		I agree with Crispin Glover as The Joker, he's got the perfect face for the part and is a bit of a weirdo anyway, but the resemblance is definatly there.

		Actor/filmmaker Crispin Hellion Glover has gained a reputation for eccentricity, both in his choice of roles and in his personal life.
		But maybe Glover is just more uncompromising than eccentric, an attitude that's made him an odd fit in Hollywood.

		It's been 15 years since Crispin Glover, clad in a wig and a clunky pair of platform shoes, stepped onto the set of Late Night With David Letterman and delivered a high kick inches away from the host's gap-toothed noggin.
		In addition, Crispin attended the Madonna-Sean Penn wedding, made a film using only actors with Down's Syndrome and, in 1997, toured the country with "Crispin Glover's Big Slide Show." He's also written several books, using a William S. Burroughs-style "cut and paste" method to reinterpret texts from the 1800s.
		While he may never be a leading man, Crispin Glover remains a mesmerizing, one-of-a-kind force in Hollywood.

		The instrumental aspect was mostly done by Barnes & Barnes (of Fish Heads), with vocals and lyrics done by Glover, who reveals some lyrical wit in songs such as the amusing ‘Clowny Clown Clown’.
		Glover’s vocals seem to just be written monolauges, and he only seems to actually sing in the lullaby-like ‘The Darling Young Man on the Flying Trapeze’.
