In my time as a film critic, I often brought along my own pocket camera to interviews with celebrities, either because I wanted to or the newsroom was simply understaffed that day. I was recently sifting through some of the resulting photos — glorified snapshots, really — and plucked a few that don’t totally suck. You might recognize some of these distinguished folks.
Tom Skerritt (“Alien,” “Top Gun”)
Chloë Grace Moretz (“Kick-Ass,” “Hugo”) at age 12
Lemmy of Motörhead
Sam Rockwell (“Moon,” “Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri”)
James Cromwell (“Babe,” “L.A. Confidential,” “Six Feet Under”)
Danny Trejo (“Machete,” “Heat,” “Breaking Bad”)
Bonus shot: James Hetfield and Cliff Burton of Metallica in a tiny nightclub in Berkeley, California, promoting their debut album “Kill ‘Em All” when I was 14

Don’t totally suck? The word suck shouldn’t even be included in this post. These are great shots. They could be in some coffee table book. You know, something like, “Celebrities Let Their Hair Down.
Thank you for the nice words, Paulie! I like that title about celebs letting their hair down. They do seem kind of unguarded now that you point it out. Look forward to your next round of photographic beauts.
Garofalo knows how to pose!

She’s very camera shy, so when I aimed she covered up. I was glad! She’s hilarious.
