Alex Lifeson's Acting Debut - Video

...well not really. I mean, I'd count his hilarious appearances in the Rush pre-concert videos as acting because he plays characters, is funny, and pretty random too! But Lifeson has an actual small film role as a border guard in the recent not so great movie Suck.

It comes out on DVD soon, but here is the Lifeson scene. I thought it was pretty good.

That's really a lot of fun. The movie shows promise, but you say it isn't very good?

That's excellent stuff. The gloves are the icing on the cake in that first scene.

Thanks for brining this clip to my attention. From the look of the film's trailer, it looks like the clips you've shared might be the best bits of the movie!

I hope you see it as "the sincerest form of flattery" rather than "rip-off" but I've also featured the clip on my blog (Alex The Actor). I had intended to write a lot more... but time pressure meant it turned out to be little more than a copy and paste.
