Daniel Day Lewis has aphasia

Finally, some gossip on Datalounge!

Eddie Redmayne will win his second Oscar for playing Daniel.

Eddie in Lincoln drag!

Explains retirement. Sad. Coke once upon a time? Bruce, Wendy, now Daniel - is that our missing link?

But does Redmayne have any right to play either Lincoln or Day Lewis, considering he can't really identify as them, R2?

67. Jesus.

That's fucking awful. That's what I'm thinking, r4. But I didn't think he was a big partier, was he?

I'm sure it will be his wife's former assistant soon, if this is true.

He looks completely out of it at OP. And she has the face of caretaker.

Aphasia doesn't come from drug abuse.

This is major "BREAKING NEWS" if true.

BEARKING, TR11.

R11...

There is no excuse for wearing yellow pants.

And what is going on with those zippers mid-thigh?

That’s very sad if true. I know dementia doesn’t discriminate, but I always am surprised when it happens to people I thought were intelligent and remained active.

I don't think this rumour is true, as I genuinely think assistant like keeping their jobs, if there really is one.

Nevertheless he looks like his kids took him to Moncler for a shop so he could be a "cool dad", but no one over the age of 15 should be wearing cargo pants unless they're for work.

I call BULLSHIT! He does not have Aphasia but Daniel is clearly on the Spectrum. The yellow pants are a definite sign of Autism. Lincoln wore yellow pants. Lincoln was Autistic. Reason why Lewis was able to play the role so well. Like to like people ! DUH!

Thank you for the scoop, OP. It's nice to see that DL still has some of that gossip that made it world-famous. The "Marcia Cross munches carpet so she married her investor" scoop was getting really, really old.

Incidentally, I was not impressed by DDL's Lincoln performance.

Talk about a waste of a third Oscar.

Who?

He also has my milkshake...and he drinks it.

I read this on DL two years ago.

At the very least DDL has hair frenzy and clothing cognitive dissonance (CCD).

He looks like Larry David in that pic.

It's for a role !

We just believe OP now?

Let me tell you how stupid some of you are.

It took me ONE SECOND to see that the majority of this thread is the OP replying to himself.

And yet, some of you just accepted it.

What is wrong with you? Are you all autistic or something?

I just ignore stupid behavior, but thanks for the legwork.

Sounds like a real case of My Left Foot in mouth!

Very sad, if true.

R32, do keep up. It’s not.

R28, the OP has aphasia.

See look how stupid r31 is. Couldn’t even bother to read a short thread.

This is not true. But I wish Donald Trump had it so why wouldn't have to hear his demented bullshit every day.

Aphasia is a symptom and not a disease. In the case of Willis it is due to dementia although I don’t know the type of dementia. Bulbar palsy (which is not dementia) can cause aphasia.

I’m dumbfounded!

He was quite articulate presenting Scorsese with an honorary award last January.

[quote] He does not have Aphasia but Daniel is clearly on the Spectrum.

I know you posted this sarcastically but Daniel Day Lewis is very obviously on the Spectrum.

An OP’s further participation in a thread doesn’t mean anything.

This happens when you use too much cocaine during your youth. Dataloungers beware.

The reason we don't get good gossip the way we used to is because everyone wants money. Instead of sharing gossip with DL they call TMZ or some other outlet to get paid.

As for DDL having Aphasia, I don't think this is true. I was reading about him a few years ago, and he c an be eccentric, and do stuff like work as a shoemaker for a while, or WTF ever, and he seems to enjoy a very simple private life, ergo no assistants. Now ifhe has some project cooking, he may have an assistant for the duration, but not permanently.

That pic in OP post is old.

Yellow pants coz he's from Europe, they wear red pants, green pants, yellow pants, of all color. Euro trash!

This has been reported here before. It's why he stopped working.

Mum’s the word.

We are all so far removed from "youth," there's no point in warning us now.

Is she the one that got beat up by Sharquisha?

Talented actor.

It's Starkeesha

Sorry to hear about his diagnosis, but probably not as sorry as he is.

Jeez. Far too young.

My father had aphasia for several years after brain surgery, and that motherfucker kept all his marbles until he died twenty years later. Aphasia means you lose the ability to process language, and there are different types and levels. Dad couldn't speak or write at all, but he could understand the spoken and written word. He could spell out words with his fingertip, and his primary form of communication was tracing letters on his palm. He also had a pocket sized dot matrix printer with a keyboard that he used to tap out messages and print on little ticker tapes. He had a little laminated card to hand to clerks and waiters that explained his condition and to assure them he wasn't retarded.

His speech returned eight to ten years after his surgery. Some of my siblings insist to this day that he faked it for some or most of that time just to be a pain in the ass.
