I would say Harpo Marx. He would make me laugh so hard, and I’d try to get him to talk

Nathan M.

Oh this is easy: John Ford. No one even comes remotely close to him.

Vertov. I’d like to chew the marxist fat and then jam with the guy, turntables to piano.

I’d want to meet heath and ask him about all those wonderful movies he made, like Knight’s Tale and The Patriot.

Robert Altman and Ingmar Bergman….sigh…

“Bergman… i was very close but then the fucker died.”

yeah, i can see your introduction…: “Hey! Fucker!”

but anyway, for me: Doris Day, before she was a virgin. I figure, if i’m already imagining the ability to travel through time, i might as well imagine the ability to fuck celebrities.

she’s not dead, is she? just realized that.

Nope. Doris Day is still alive. She’s a recluse and an animal rights activist. She refuses to perform anymore.

Michel Simon comes to mind immediately. Put him at a table with Heath Ledger and I know who I’d be listening to.

ok, in that case I choose Barbara Stanwyck.

yeahhhh, Barbara Stanwyck.

Hmmmm Ingmar Bergman. Id also would have liked to meet Smita Patil.

I second Smita Patil, one of the most talented and beautiful actresses ever who died way too early. The Chinese actress Ruan Lingyu would be another obvious choice for me.

@ Apursansar, umm, yeah, I bet you want to go back in history and “meet” Smita Patil, ha.

@ OP, Seriously though, you have the power to go back in history and meet people…and the person you’d pick is HEATH LEDGER? hahahahahahahahaha What, was the dead guy from Milli Vanilli too busy to meet you?

I agree Blue K. I can’t think of a more absurd choice than the OP. I mean, he was stunning in Dark Knight, but that’s all…

Rishi that Ledger line is gonna be hella long. You should meet Billy Mays with me instead! We can get him to hold up a fan sign for the Auteurs and post it on the forums.

But to be real about it, I would go for Maya Deren.

If I met Heath Ledger I’d laugh at him for fucking things up with someone awesome like Michelle Williams and having to go slumming it with an Olsen twin. Way to go, dummy!

Delbert Grady

At least he died before the rest of his hair fell out. Smart man.

Andrew S. Lee

Bunuel. I’d love to have a few martinis and just listen to some anecdotes. Such a fascinating life…

I never met Heath Ledger personally, however I went to a special screening of Brokeback Mountain. Ang Lee (who I wanted to see) couldn’t make it because of severe weather problems in Connecticut and missed his plane. However, Heath Ledger was there with Jake Gyllenhaal and others. Jake was more interesting than Heath. Oh well.

Definitely Ingmar Bergman. If I had a second choice maybe Leni Riefenstahl – I imagine the conversation would be…very interesting.
