Willem Dafoe In 'Love's Routine': Watch The Actor Moonlight In A Creepy Student Film

Shirlyn Wong really felt like she was living someone else’s life when she found herself poking Willem Dafoe’s face. And not by choice.

What a great article! So truly touched. It's such a fun read and so witty. Mallika Rao (writer) and Wendy George (photographer) have a special place in my heart.  I'm glad they expressed how down to earth and funny Willem Dafoe is.

He's such a stellar guy!

Rao was also so mindful to plug my next film, The Mobile Stripper.
