Has anyone seen this movie? I've not (can't find it anywhere!), but I have some pictures that are incredibly enticing, therefore, quite necessary to post. (Plus, the community is quite dead, so I wanted to help bring it back to life at least a wee bit.)

Hello there ♥ This is my first post here, and I come bearing a Rudy desktop background. It's for 800 x 600 screen resolutions. Hope you like it!

The brushes I used were found here.

I've came across the following quote in several websites, and if anyone has a clue where this is from (or if Rudy actually said it), I'd Love you forever!

"A very good-looking boy followed me for a quarter of an hour, and in the end he came up to me outside the Opera. I went back with him to his home and he kissed me with a frenzy even on the staircase. I was wildly passionate. We made love like tigers until dawn."

I'm rather interested in the life of Rudy, so...anyone care to suggest any books about him? I've read one (The First Superstar, I want to say is the name), but I'd Love to read something a bit more in-depth, so anything would be marvellous.

I found this interesting site. It tells about Rudy's supposed ghost, etc.

First post in this community, so I figured it should be worth something, no?

What is everyone's favorite movie from Rudy? :)

Do any of you know how to make layouts? I'm completely clueless on how to and I'd love this community to have a Rudy layout. If you know how, please try to come up with one. I'd appreciate it dearly. :)
