95. Not that anyone will care, but...
Personally I think Paul McCartney is a swell guy and doesn't have a violent bone in his body. He strikes me as passive-aggressive, the kind of man who drives THE WOMAN to violent rage... quiet, noncommital, won't make a firm decision, will sulk, et cetera. Heather on the other hand looks capable of rage. I may be wrong, but I think Paul might be the wronged party here. I never met him, but back in 1990 or 91 I wrote a screenplay for him to star in, called "Agony", about a poor Irish dad in Liverpool struggling to keep his kids together after his wife leaves him, and sent it off to his attorneys. Paul actually contacted me back himself and was the most gracious human being on the face of the earth! His American attorney, whose name I can't remember dammit, was exceptionally cool too. About how rare should it be to be treated nicely by a Beatle when you're a nobody screenwriter?? McCartney was super cool and loved the script, but said, "I can't act, love. But you were kind of thinking of me. If ever I learn to act, especially well enough for the likes of this, and you hear about it, send this to me again and maybe I'll gun up the courage" or something like that.

I'm on Paul's side about this. For him to go out of his way as a frikkin BEATLE to actually phone a complete nobody and say nice things about their present to him? Way cool.

Heather can go straight to... ahem. Redacted. I'm sure she has her side of it. :sarcasm:
