Want an Oliver Stone Autograph? Here's How...

I only met Oliver Stone once. It was at CinemaCon in Las Vegas years ago, and a luncheon with a few big name directors (Guillermo del Toro being one). The directors had the most interesting things to say about filmmaking and it was an incredible lunch.

As I saw him walking to the escalator the same time as me, I wanted to say, "Why did you make such a horrible movie about my favorite band The Doors?" Instead, I thought I'd be more polite. I simply said, "So...what's your favorite Doors song?"

He smiled and said, "I don't know. It's hard to pick one. I like 'em all."

I didn't ask for his autograph. I'm not a big enough fan, and...when I'm at an event like that, I don't like to bug the talent for signatures. It sometimes looks unprofessional if you do that.

Anyway, if you want this Oscar-winning directors autograph on a book, it'll only cost you $30. Here's a link to how you can score that:

I really love some of Oliver Stone's earlier films. JFK, Platoon and Natural Born Killers i think are his best works. I must confess, that despite all the inaccuracies and hype, i actually like The Doors film too. I think it was released in 1991, so i was 14 years old. It gave me my first taste of The Doors and also introduced me to The Velvet Underground. So i've got a lot to thank him for.

I do collect film memorabilia and have a couple of my favourite directors autographs; Alan Parker and Quentin Tarantino and would really like something by Oliver Stone.

Thanks for the heads-up regarding the signed Oliver Stone book - think i'll check it out.

Be well!
