Where:Toronto International Film Festival- Eastern Promises

Hey guys!!

Sorry this is a bit late, but i've been a bit busy with work for school. On Saturday Sept. 8th i went to my annual Toronto International Film Festival outing . Myself and Larisie arrived early at about 11am at Roy Thompson Hall where Eastern Promises was going to be premiered. There we had the pleasure of meeting a fellow board member afem1010 who stood with us all day and kept us company. It was really nice meeting someone from the board!!

At about 5:45pm the first SUV car pulled up to the premiere and out came Viggo Mortensen!! He was absolutely amazing, he didn't hesitate to sign at all and started where the red carpet began and worked his way ALL the way up down the street. He was possibly signing for a good 30-45 mins at least, and he got everyone. When Viggo came up to me i was SO excited. I had missed him 4 times at the festival already. When he approached me i quickly asked him if i could have a hug and he said "Awwww, sure!" and hugged me tightly. He also signed my picture!! It was amazing to him finally up close!!

Here is a picture of the autograph:
