I thought I’d do this here since it’s been a success on some of my other sites. So here we go. Each Sunday I’m going to choose one photo of Keir as a Photo Of The Week. You can comment on it if you like or discuss the character and or project it’s from. So without further adieu here is the first of many…hopefully.
Keir Dullea as Paul Lyman in the LAW & ORDER episode Hubris
The first image is from the eleventh season of LAW & ORDER. The episode is Hubris. Keir portrayed a defense attorney who was helping a pro se defendant who allegedly committed four cold blooded murders. So let’s know what you felt about Keir in this episode. I’ll answer as the comments come in.
I finally have some things from Keir’s film HENRi. According to Keir the film is about an artificial intelligence wanting to be human. Keir also says that HENRi is the better side of the HAL-9000 from Keir’s films 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY and 2001: ODYSSEY TWO. Here are some screencaps and a couple of videos. Check out the HENRi media channel on ODYSSEY MEDIA. I’m going to feature the Behind the Scenes video where Keir talks about the film and his character.
Keir and Mia are going to be having a luncheon at the Westport Woman’s Club. Information follows. More below the cut.

I’d kill to be able to go to this. Just to be able to meet Keir once. If anyone is thinking of going report back here and let us know how it went. I wonder what they’re serving?
Keir talked about working with Stanley Kubrick and working on the film 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY. In particular Keir talks about doing the scene in the airlock when HAL won’t let Dave back on The Discovery. He loves discussing that scene. I think it’s cute.
