Once upon a time there was a highly successful actor who forgot that life is NOT a movie.
Hollywood superstar, Liam Neeson – the “I will find you and I will kill you” guy – admitted in a recent interview that he once walked the streets with a weapon for days, looking to kill a “black bastard” after someone close to him was raped.
Neeson, who now says he is “ashamed” of “his past awful” behavior, recalled being told about the rape after he returned from a trip overseas.
“She handled the situation of the rape in the most extraordinary way,” Neeson said. “But my immediate reaction was … did she know who it was? No. What color were they? She said it was a black person,” he recalled.
“I went up and down areas with a cosh, hoping I’d be approached by somebody. I’m ashamed to say that, and I did it for maybe a week – hoping some ‘black bastard’ would come out of a pub and have a go at me about something, you know? So that I could kill him.”
Ah, what a Hallmark movie indeed, Liam.
Hey, we give the guy credit and respect for his admission, and we’re glad no one was ‘for real’ killed by Liam in the end.
