Hey Kevin,
I have seen Dogma a bunch of times now, and everytime I see it I wonder about one of the scenes with Alan Rickman. The scene I am talking about is immediatelyafter Alanis' God yell when Bartelby's head explodes. Rickman gets some "itty- bitty pieces of skull" on his angel threads and he proceeds to clean it up by spittingon Alanis' sash-type thing and scrubbing the spot. Every time I see this part, I always think back to that part in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves where someonedraws a scar on the statue of the Sheriff of Nottingham and Rickman cleans it off using the monk's cap and some spit. The two parts seem really similar to me, and I
was just wondering if this was a planned homage to Rickman's Sheriff of Nottingham character, or if it was unintentional.
Let me know, if ya can.
Thanks
PS. If it wasn't planned, steal this idea and tell everyone that it was.
