What a great picture of Alan Rickman posted to the Leopold’s Ice Cream Facebook page.
I’ve seen a number of CBGB stars around town during their off hours, including Rupert Grint in Ellis Square, Justin Bartha at The Jinx, and Freddy Rodriguez at the Ike Stubblefield show last night at Congress Street Social Club, but no personal sightings of Rickman, although he apparently did a little shopping at The Book Lady (unrecognized by the store owner who waited on him) and he has also become a fan of Leopold’s Ice Cream.
Here’s a photo from this post of Rickman talking to store owner Stratton Leopold, who has a long list of movie production credits. Among other obvious treats, Leopold’s visitors can see framed posters of all the films Stratton has worked on. Click here for the store’s website.
