AT LUNCH WITH: Alan Alda Hawkeye Turns Mean, Sensitively
By Elizabeth Kolbert May 18, 1994
THE first thing Alan Alda wants to know when he arrives is whether everything is O.K. He has chosen the restaurant, Orso; he hopes that's O.K. He has asked for a table outside, on the patio. Is that O.K.?
In Hollywood, it isn't easy to get a reputation as a nice guy, but somehow Mr. Alda has managed. Perhaps it is because he spent so much time playing Hawkeye Pierce, that superficially snide but deep-down-lovable scamp. Or maybe it is because he has been married to the same woman for more than three decades and campaigned for the equal rights amendment years before the sensitive guy was even invented.
Or maybe it's just because he's the kind of star who, when he arrives for an interview, seems genuinely concerned that things are O.K.
Whatever the reasons, Mr. Alda has had enough. Over the last few years, he has set about refashioning himself, on screen at least, into something of a jerk. First, in the Woody Allen film "Crimes and Misdemeanors," he played a vain television producer whispering his brilliant insights into a pocket tape recorder. Then, in "And the Band Played On," he portrayed Dr. Robert Gallo as an egomaniacal character more interested in getting credit for discovering the AIDS virus than in curing it.
Now, in "White Mile," which will have its premiere on Saturday on HBO, Mr. Alda is Dan Cutler, a hard-charging advertising executive whose reckless enthusiasm for male bonding results in the deaths of five men.
He made the shift to beat what he calls the "type thing" but has found that he quite enjoys villainy. "The reason that actors like to play bad guys is that you get to do things they won't let you do in real life," he said. "You have people fired, you hit on women, you tell people off, you have them killed. It's very nice to have people killed and not have to go to jail for it."
For lunch, Mr. Alda was wearing a silky maroon shirt, a blue sport jacket with a faint white check and a pair of steel-gray pants. At 58, he is still as lanky and trim as in his "M*A*S*H" days, but his hair, once black, is now completely gray. To read a menu, he now puts on a pair of round-framed bifocals.
Although on television and in movies Mr. Alda tends toward the wry -- whether he's playing nice or not so nice -- in person there are few quips and not a lot of irony. It's not that he is sincere, exactly, but he seems to want to be. "I tried not to come in today with a line of talk," he said. "I tried not to come in to sell you some idea. I'm bored with that."
"I'm not trying to look like I'm a certain type of person, or trying to sell you on 'White Mile,' " he continued. "If you like it, you like it; if you don't, you don't."
"White Mile" follows a team of advertising executives who embark on a rafting trip with their clients as a kind of high-stakes adventure. The head of the agency, played by Mr. Alda, does not want anything to interfere with the bonding experience, so all the men end up piling into one raft, with dreadful results. After five men have drowned, Mr. Alda's character is unrepentant: "I didn't motivate them enough" is the closest he comes to blaming himself for the disaster.
To film "White Mile," which is based on a true story, Mr. Alda and the rest of the cast, including Peter Gallagher and Robert Loggia, spent most of December on the American River in northern California. Mr. Alda described the work -- flailing around while being swept down the river -- as not only strenuous, but also frigid.
But unlike his character, he was not given to machismo in the face of danger. "In every meeting we had," he said, "I asked them how many river people we were going to have. I think they got the message. Everywhere you turned, there was somebody to pull you out of the water."
Mr. Alda has been acting for almost half a century now, ever since his late father, Robert, the original Sky Masterson in "Guys and Dolls" on Broadway, started to use him in vaudeville routines in the 1940's. He credits all the hours he spent hanging around his father and his father's friends with giving him a sense of how much serious work it takes to be entertaining.
"When my father was in vaudeville, I would stand in the wings and watch the magician," he recalled over a plate of penne with vegetables. "I could see how he made the audience think there was nothing in the box. I was seeing him from the side; I'd see how he'd reach under the table and put the pigeons in the box.
"Standing on the side -- watching and hearing the reaction of the audience and seeing the performers five feet away, reading their thoughts, watching them time their performance -- is an education that you can't get from the other side of the footlights. You can watch actors create their illusions, but if you don't see where they get the pigeons from, you don't really know how they're doing it."
Over the years, Mr. Alda has performed just about every role in show business. He has written, directed and starred in four films, the first of which, "The Four Seasons," was a commercial success and the last of which, "Betsy's Wedding," was a flop. He has acted on Broadway, most recently in the Neil Simon play "Jake's Women," tried his hand at writing sitcoms and appeared in commercials. But as he has grown older, he has become pickier about the projects he takes on, and as a result, his schedule these days is . . . let's just say pretty loose.
In a few months, he will be seen as an inept President who orders the invasion of Canada in a new movie from Michael Moore, the director of "Roger and Me." But beyond that, he said, he has not been offered any roles he felt compelled to take. "It's an interesting problem I have," he said. "I want to be able to use the years I have left to have the richest kind of fun I can have."
Ever since "M*A*S*H," Mr. Alda has split his time between the East Coast, where he has houses in the Hamptons and Leonia, N.J., and the West, where he owns a house in the Bel Air section of Los Angeles. He and his wife, Arlene, a photographer, plan to pass this summer on Long Island, spending time with their three daughters and three grandchildren.
Mr. Alda, who in the 1970's became feminism's poster boy -- or should it be poster man? -- no longer spends much time on politics. "I think I put in my time," he said of his days campaigning, unsuccessfully, for the equal rights amendment. "I just got tired of making speeches."
Perhaps. But when he gets going on the subject of women's rights, his voice changes timbre and he comes perilously close to speechifying.
"I don't think we've gotten as far as we can go," he said. "But I think we've gotten much, much farther than anybody imagined we would. I mean, I just read yesterday that the Navy -- it wasn't big news -- that the Navy was going to start making more space for women with increased combat responsibilities.
"That was the main argument for not passing the equal rights amendment: that women would have to be in combat. Well, it turns out they didn't need the equal rights amendment to have the Navy do that, and it's not even big news. So the mind-set has changed enormously, and it has plenty to go."
It was "M*A*S*H" that made Alan Alda a household name -- and an enormously rich man -- and with reruns of the show broadcast practically continuously, it is "M*A*S*H" that in many ways continues to define his public image. The show, which ran for 11 years, is still regarded as the gold standard in the world of sitcom production, and its last episode, on Feb. 28, 1983, was one of the highest-rated entertainment programs ever. But Mr. Alda said the series, which he does not watch in syndication, seemed very distant to him now.
"I'm very happy that I've done something that gives people pleasure still after all these years," he said. "Not that they remember: that they still see it. But for me, as a personal experience for me, it's as though it happened to somebody else."
As for the fame that went with "M*A*S*H" and has been slowly dissipating since then, he maintained that he was just as happy to see it go. At lunch passers-by seemed to notice him, and occasionally paused to greet him, but they did not surround him or even seem particularly impressed by his presence.
"I never was comfortable being as famous as I was," he said. He recalled one evening during the heyday of "M*A*S*H" when a woman who saw him at a restaurant was so overcome that she started to sob. To this day, he said, he regretted not having gone over to comfort her.
All of which again presents the question of being a nice guy. Mr. Alda insisted that it was the press that defined him that way.
"I never was as wonderful a person as everybody said I was," he said. "It occurred to me a couple of days ago that it's too bad that I'm not as wonderful a person as people say I am, because the world could use a few good people like that."

Writing Snippets--10/21/2022
Good news, we’ve broken 300 pages on the time-travelling Obake AU, we’re riding this energy until it peters out and honestly I’ll be kinda sad when the juice finally runs dry.
Anywho, post monster attack, finished “Big Problem” last night and have now gone into the aftermath:
“At least the tasers work,” Tadashi said, ruffling Hiro’s hair.
“No they don’t,” Hiro protested.  “They didn’t even slow the thing down!”
“Hiro, you were calculating for a non-lethal zapping of a guy that would weigh maybe a third of that thing.  The tasers work.”
“I mean they did stop the monster from eating Dr. Amara,” Gogo observed as she hauled Obake upright.
Hiro perked up at that. “Think she’d be willing to listen to my presentation now?”
Ah.  Had to smother the wince as he recalled how that conversation before the monster attack went—started at Karmi going “Dr. Amara, Professor Granville!”
“Is everyone all right?” Professor Granville demanded, running over to them.  “Is anyone hurt?”
“No one has suffered any severe injuries from the: monster attack,” Baymax announced.
“Good.  Now what were you children THINKING you could have been KILLED!”
“So this is weird hearing this from someone besides Tadashi,” Hiro offered.
“So this is how it feels,” Tadashi mused.
“At least it’s down now,” Dr. Amara observed, peering at the unconscious monster.  “Good work, Karmi—those are your nano-receptors, are they not?”
“I—yeah thanks but—team effort,” Karmi muttered, not looking up, ponytail tugged in front and being wrung nervously.
“It’s still impressive,” Dr. Amara said.  “But now we’re left with the question of this monster.”
“Professor Knox: has suffered no permanent injury from the altercation,” Baymax offered.
That caused dead silence from everyone present, all of them staring at Baymax.  “Uh, you want to run that one by us again, bud?” Tadashi asked.
“During my scan of the: monster, I found that the eyes matched the scans of: Professor Orso Knox.” Blink.  “I have no medical explanation for his current condition.”
Continued dead silence.
“The monster was a person?” Hiro asked finally.
“Oh—ohh no I’m dead,” Wasabi said, brushing himself off.  “I’m dead, I’m so dead that thing spit on me—”
“There is no indication that Professor Knox’s condition is contagious,” Baymax told him.  “It is unlikely that you will suffer similar effects.”
“Unlikely, he says.”
There was a moment where Granville could quote the movie and I took it. XD
Since thanks to Obake’s actions Big Hero 6 didn’t form, it was basically a bunch of college students that took the monster down and that probably didn’t do much for Granville’s blood pressure.

Forse era il whisky - avevo già svuotato il bicchiere -, ma all'improvviso dentro mi è salito un calore, una specie di allegria: andava sempre tutto male, solo che me ne importava poco. Come se mi vedessi dalla luna: un essere minuscolo con dei problemi minuscolo e stupidi. Va bene, ero stato licenziato, mi ero comportato come un cretino e avevo rovinato la mia amicizia co. John, ero un orso che non voleva andare all'università: e allora? Non erano cose importanti. Non ero mica su un aereo dirottato che andava verso il World Trade Center.

Orsetto il terribile: cosa si nasconde dietro a un bambino maleducato e scontroso... Fortunatamente nel mio lavoro mi è capitato raramente di aver a che fare con bambini maleducati e scontrosi con gli altri. Leggendo "Orsetto il Terribile" edizioni il castoro, mi sono soffermata a riflettere su questo tema, ovvero cosa si nasconde dietro al brutto comportamento di un bambino. Se ci soffermiamo alla prima impressione, la nostra reazione sarà sicuramente negativa nei confronti di questo bambino, che con un comportamento aggressivo ha infastidito un compagno. Solitamente dietro al comportamenti di questi bambini si celano malumori e delusioni. Certo non è sempre così, ma nella maggior parte dei casi questi bambini hanno avuto esperienze difficili, sono stati trascurati o non sono stati educati nel modo adeguato. Differenti tipi di bullismo I ricercatori distinguono tra bullismo diretto (provocazioni verbali e fisiche) e bullismo relazionale (la manipolazione delle relazioni/amicizie con i coetanei). Generalmente le vittime di bullismo sono bambini sensibili e intelligenti, che hanno un buon rapporto con i genitori; non reagiscono quando sono fatti oggetti di bullismo o piangono diventando ancora di più bersaglio dei bulli. Come accennavo prima, molti dei bambini che attuano comportamenti di prepotenza hanno caratteristiche comuni. È probabile che abbiano subito qualche forma d'abuso, che abbiano difficoltà a scuola, che abbiano scarsa autostima o che provengano da famiglie in cui sono già presenti comportamenti di prepotenza. Al contrario ci sono bulli che presentano caratteristiche diverse: sono bambini sicuri di sè, che controllano gli altri e vogliono imporre la propria volontà. Infine ci sono bambini che si comportano con prepotenza solo qualche volta, dopo un evento che li ha fatti stare male. L'amicizia, l'affetto e il bullismo Il bullismo è molto diffuso nei primi anni di scuola e i bambini possono ritrovarsi ad essere o bulli o vittime. L'amicizia in parte può proteggere il bambino dagli effetti del bullismo, questo dipende però dalla qualità dell'amicizia. La storia di: "Orsetto il terribile" Attraverso questa breve storia il nostro bambino riuscirà a capire che fare il bullo e il maleducato non porta a niente e che per la maggior parte delle volte questi bambini hanno bisogno d'affetto. Orsetto il Terribile è un orsetto che gioisce nel vedere gli altri disperarsi di fronte alle sue marachelle. Orsetto è temuto da tutti e se la prende con ogni animale del bosco. Quando però cala la notte orsetto si sente subito solo e per caso va ad incappare in Signora orso; orsetto che sapeva comunicare solo attraverso la violenza credette che anche Signora orso volesse prendersela con lui, ma l'orsa conosceva bene la reputazione di orsetto, così decise di mostrargli cosa si prova a sentirsi amati. "Signora orso allora gli dà un bacetto sul muso. SMACK! Orsetto il Terribile non l'aveva mai provato. È dolce, caldo e fa venire i brividi. La testa gira un pò e il suo cuoricino batte più veloce..." Il bacio di Signora orso trasformò orsetto che da quel momento riuscì ad apprezzare le cose belle della vita e non diede più fastidio a nessuno.

Soooo, any of you expecting or planning for any more kids?
Isabella rubs the back of her neck “well, 5 was our limit, buut...” she glances at a sheepish Phineas, who stepped up “Nature seemed to disagree, so there’s a 6th on the way,” Phineas explained, fidgeting with his hands “Atleast we’ll be even with Ferb now!” Isabella giggled and kissed Phineas’ cheek “Way to be optimistic, love.” she turned to the anon “6 is definitely our limit, i’m only a month along, though, so we’ve yet to pick names. I have a few in mind, though.”
--
Ferb shook his head “No, 6 is definitely enough for me, thanks.”
--
Vanessa sat down on the couch “I’m 4 months along, but it’s Carl’s this time. the last three were Monty’s. Honestly, it’s all thanks to dad’s ignoring the laws of biology, because both of them are trans and i’m cis, so it’s almost entirely thanks to dad that i’m the one that’s carried them, of my own accord of course.” She picked up a book- written by herself- and started reading “We’re going for another M name, though, carl likes the alliteration. I’m hoping it’s a girl this time, there are more than enough boys in this family.” 
--
Heinz chuckled nervously “No, 4′s good, i think we’re too old to be raising a newborn now anyway.” Perry appeared from behind him, signing “(Furbabies, however-)”
--
Candace smiled “Nah, i have my perfect family, 3′s enough for me.”
--
Peter and Mystery shared a glance “Well,” Mystery began “We don’t want anymore kids, but we have seen another version of us with...well, a lot more of them. I think the author got a bit carried away with us at first, but i’m glad we have the ones we do.”
--
Pinky paced the floor of his lair “Well, maybe another one? having two sounds uh, nice, but I-i’m not sure, i haven’t made up my mind, so i guess its a tbd for now.” 
“Thanks for asking, though!”

To the original cast, would any of you wear skirts or dresses?
Heinz answered first “Well, i’m pretty open about my occasional crossdressing, drag or whatever you would call that. But, i’m only really comfortable wearing those sorts of things when the wig and the makeup is on, y’know? My past didn’t exactly give me a good reason to wear dresses unless i wanted to be bullied, so, i don’t tend to outside of that.”
Perry soon followed “Skirt wise, i experimented in high school and still wear them sometimes. Dress wise, as long as it's fit for me, I’ll wear it. That ballgown-inator was actually one of Heinz’ better inventions that summer, in my opinion.” “But i do own a kilt, my father was Scottish so, you know. I rarely wear it, only really for formal events and such, but it is a nice reminder of him.”
Phineas jumped in his seat and nodded “Yeah! I wear skirts a lot, and summer dresses are really fun to wear!” He exclaimed, his hands very animated as he talked “Ferb’s more of a dress person, he doesn’t really do skirts, but i think he looks good in them!”
Isabella then smiled “You know me, practically always wearing a dress or skirt! Although i do still adore that summer one i wore all those years ago, i looked so cute back then!”Carl then spoke up from beside her “She’s tried to get me to wear those sorts of clothing, but it’s not my thing. I appreciate the effort though!”
Monty chuckled “Me? in a dress? Nah, i guess you could call me a more ‘masculine’ guy, not that skirts n’ stuff have genders, but you get what i mean.” He explained, going a little red
Baljeet and Buford glanced at each other before Baljeet spoke: “I have worn typically ‘feminine’ clothing before, mostly skirts and crop tops, but i tend to stick with warmer clothes.” He explained calmly, Buford piped up “Yeah, i don’t ‘ave the body for dresses or nothin”“Except for junior year, high school.” Baljeet added, getting a sharp ‘EY!” from Buford
Vanessa and Candace nodded happily “Yup, all the time. I mean, skirts are practically half of Candace’s wardrobe and i can rock a formal dress!” Vanessa explained, making Candace giggle beside her.
“Yeah! I love wearing dresses! Skirts are practically half my casual outfits, so I’d give that a big yes!” Pinky explained enthusiastically, “I’m wearing a skirt right now, actually!”
And finally, Peter and Miggs, Miggs talked first “Uh...sometimes, it’s on and off for me, mainly because of image issues, but Peter thinks i look good in them, apparently. Speaking of, Peter took a hard no on even trying,  so I guess that’s settled, for now.”

“Peter Orso.” She said it casually as she sat down, and it almost took Peter a minute to recognize the name. He’d had more cover identities in the past ten years than he had fingers and toes, and Orso wasn’t a name he’d heard directed at him in a long time. “You do recall your own name, do you not, Agent P?” Hoffman asked, smirking when Peter twitched a couple of fingers in acknowledgment. “Good, since you’ll be using it for a while.”

[ID: An anonymous ask that reads: ‘hey peter & perry, what’s your nationality/nationalities? i’m curious!’ End ID]
“(I’m mixed.)” Peter answered first, “(my mother is american-chilean, and my father is chinese-japanese.)
Perry answered second. “I’m Biracial. My mother was an australian-canadian black woman, and my father was a scottish-british white man. Sometimes i drop into my accents.” He chuckled “It comes out a lot more when i’m around others with the same accent, though”
“(Thanks for the ask.)” they both signed, giving a smile.

Panda Shrine 15!
15. a gentle “i love you” whispered after a soft kiss, followed immediately by a stronger kiss
It just slips out. 
Miggs tilts his head back against Peter’s shoulder, prompting him to turn and press a kiss to Miggs’ forehead, never taking his eyes off the television playing the newest Space Adventure straight-to-TV movie. Miggs pokes Peter in the side a couple times, shifting his weight around and generally being a nuisance before Peter sighs like Miggs is being a giant brat. (He is, but he doesn’t care). 
Peter turns to cup Miggs’ jaw and pull him into a proper kiss, lips curled into an amused smile all the same. It’s gentle and soft, lingering in a way that assures Miggs that Peter still finds him more interesting than the television, even when he’s being an asshole. 
And it just…slips out. 
“I love you.” 
Miggs’ breath hitches to a stop when Peter stills at the whispered confession, and then it catches in his chest when Peter immediately presses forward in a stronger kiss, fingers sliding into Miggs’ hair as their mouths move together. 
When they break apart, Peter is grinning and curling a couple fingers into his palm in a slang sign to press it against Miggs’ chest.
