Request for Question Clarification by rainbow-ga on 07 Jul 2005 10:01 PDT

Hi pachinko,

Please let me know if this answers your question:

"That's clearly Cillian Murphy, an actor better known as the lead in
"28 Days Later." Cillian is an old Gaellic name that translates
loosely into "Tranny Face."
(...)
"I also want to point out that his glasses are hand crafted by the
same  Frenchman who makes the spectacles that rest on my very face,
Alain Mikli. i.e. I felt rich for a solid 7 minutes of screentime..."

You can also see a photograph of Cillian Murphy wearing the glasses at
the above site.

Looking forward to hearing your views.

Best regards,
Rainbow

PS: I also have an email into Mikli asking them for any additional

Hello again.

I have a confirmation from the Mikli New York Press Office from Lou
Lacovelli, email address lou@atelierpr.com (Listed on the Mikli Site) 
He has confirmed to me in email that they are Mikli Glasses.
