Pivot Questionnaire


Summarizing Proust

We started TiVo-ing "Inside the Actors Studio" (you have no idea how much the absence of an apostrophe confuses and upsets me). It struck me that the Bernard Pivot questionnaire that James Lipton uses is an eminently bloggable thing (not only that, but I'm never going to sit on that stage and answer it, so why not here?). Feel free to answer the questions yourself in the comments.
