Interview
by Michele Larroque
Hi charles. What’s your favorite movie?
Hey! Not to be whatever, but It’s Ingmar Bergman’s Persona. Also, Sleeping with the Enemy and Hand that Rocks the Cradle.
Do you eat everything or are there things you hate?
Everyone wants to know! I’m from New Orleans, as you may know, but I don’t eat seafood of any kind. Well, I can stomach crawfish because New Orleans, but that’s not really seafood. I also don’t like mushrooms (period) or eggplant with the skin on. That’s it.
favorite cocktail?
Classic daiquiri. Rum, lime, simple syrup. Shaken.
where do you live nowadays?
Just moved to Pasadena from Brooklyn. They filmed lots of Back to the Future here. Oh, and Halloween.
you used to have this extensive WEBsite about twin peaks filming locations and NOW it’s gone. what happened?
Mmm…yeah. The third season really, really, really bummed me out. Kind of ruined the whole thing for me, retroactively. Who knows, maybe I’ll take up the hobby again when I’m old—er.
WHat’s your favorite thing to do?
That’s a tough one. So many things. Ummmmm…okay I love to think about space -like outer space. I love to read before bed. I love to cook for friends, but if you’re at my house get ready for me to shut it down by 10pm –whether you’ve finished your meal or not. I’m fun that way.
any pets?
Yes. 3. Roger and Dottie Hinkle are my two Cockapoos and Bruce LaBruce is a Frenchie. The love I feel for these animals…indescribable.
you lived in ny, then seattle, providence and rockport…THEN back to brooklyn. were you in the city on 9/11?
I was. Why do you ask?
last question. If you could be anywhere right now where would that be?
Key West in the Marquesa Hotel pool.
