AMBERG (bk/fu). Maria Weigl traute ihren Augen nicht: In Begleitung seiner Ehefrau Alice Kim und zweier Deutscher spazierte am Samstagabend der Hollywood-Star Nicolas Cage ins „Café Zentral“ auf dem Amberger Marktplatz. Es war bereits der zweite Abstecher des Oscar-Preisträgers nach Ostbayern in diesem Winter.
„Keiner hat geglaubt, dass er es wirklich ist! Erst, als er an mir vorbei ging und auch noch Englisch sprach, wusste ich: Er ist es wirklich.“ Maria Weigl bedient im „Café Zentral“ – und sie ist immer noch hin und weg: „Als ich seine Frau gesehen hab, war ich mir ganz sicher. Die hab’ ich auch wieder erkannt.“ Ein wenig mager habe er ausgesehen, der Nicolas Cage, erzählt die Bedienung im Gespräch mit der Mittelbayerischen Zeitung. Und das, obwohl der berühmte Schauspieler beim Essen richtig zulangte: Ein Paar Saure Bratwürste verspeiste Cage allein als Vorspeise – eine Empfehlung seiner deutschen Begleiter. Die Würste kommentierte der Hollywood-Star zunächst mit einem skeptischen „What’s that?“, dann verspeiste er sie aber mit Genuss. Ein Schweinehalssteak sollte die Hauptspeise sein, seine Frau Alice Kim scheint es nicht so deftig zu mögen: Sie schnabulierte inzwischen Putenstreifen süß-sauer. Die Gäste im Café – mittlerweile überzeugt, dass es tatsächlich Nicolas Cage sein muss –umringten den Star mit Autogrammwünschen. Die Bedienungen hielten sich vornehm zurück, ließen dem Star die verdiente Ruhe beim Essen. Maria: „Als er gegangen ist, sind wir trotzdem hin. Und er hat uns was ins Schichtbuch geschrieben: Thanks for the wonderful food.“ Nordostbayern und seine Wurst-Variationen scheinen es dem Hollywoodstar angetan zu haben: „Thank you for the Bratwurst“, dankte Cage am 9. Januar dem Personal im „Erlebnishof“ nahe der Autobahnausfahrt Münchberg (Oberfranken). Möglicherweise war er da auf dem Weg nach Berlin. Bei der dortigen Berlinale beklatschte das Publikum den Film „Adaption“, in dem der Star eine Doppelrolle hat. Auf dem roten Teppich der Premierenfeier gab er unter dem Blitzlichtgewitter der Fotographen geduldig Autogramme. „Ich arbeite noch dran“, antwortete Cage auf die Frage, ob er im wirklichen Leben auch einen Zwilling hat. In den Kinos kann man Cage derzeit als fiesen Waffenhändler in dem Streifen „Lord of War“ sehen. Im Herbst spielt Cage eine Hauptrolle in dem Terror-Drama „World Trade Center“ über den 11. September 2001 unter der Regie von Oliver Stone.
It's really a shame that our friend Anggun (from Austria) doesn't come around here anymore. She could probably help us out.
This is about as much as I could get from Babelfish:
Maria Weigl did not trust her eyes: In company of its wife Alice Kim and two Germans walked on Saturday evening the Hollywood star Nicolas Cage in the "Café central" on the Amberger market place. It was already the second excursion of the OSCAR winner to East Bavaria in this winter. "none believed that it is real it! Only, when he went past at me and also still spoke English, I knew: It is real it." Maria Weigl serves in the "Café central" - and she is still and away: "as I his wife saw yourself, was completely safe I. Those ' I also again recognized." It looked a little lean, the Nicolas Cage, tells the operation in the discussion with the central Bavarian newspaper. And that, although the famous actor "zulangte" correctly when eating: A pair sour bratwuersts fed Cage alone as hors-d'oeuvre - a recommendation of its German companions. The Hollywood star commentated the sausages first with a sceptical "What's that?", then it fed it however with benefit. A pig neck steak should be the main food, his Mrs. Alice Kim seems it to like not so "deftig": It "schnabulierte" in the meantime PUT strips sweet-sourly. The guests in the Café - meanwhile it convinces that it must be actually Nicolas Cage surrounded the star with autograph desires. The operations held back themselves elegantly, left to the star the earned peace when eating. Maria: "as it went, is we nevertheless. And it us which in the layer book wrote: Thanks for the wonderful food." Northeast Bavaria and its sausage variations seem to have done it to the Hollywood star: "Thank you for the bratwurst", thanked Cage on 9 January the personnel in the "experience yard" close of the motorway exit Muenchberg (Upper Franconia). Possibly it was there on the way to Berlin. With the there "Berlinale beklatschte" the public the film "Adaptation", in which the star has a double role. On the red carpet it gave autographs to the premiere celebration under the flashlight thunderstorm of the photo graphs patiently. "I work still to", answered Cage to the question whether he has a twin in the real life also. In the cinemas one can see Cage at present as a weapon dealer in the strip "Lord of War". In the autumn Cage plays a main role in the terror drama "World Trade Center" over 11 September 2001 under the direction of Oliver Stone.
So, basically, he and the Mrs. were seen in Germany, ate some bratwurst and pig neck steak (which she didn't care for), and signed autographs.

Hey - don't they have a baby to be taking care of? Exactly who is bonding with the boy? I understand Nic has obligations with making and promoting movies, but she doesn't. And Nic has to split time to fit in Westin as well. How does that happen when you are country hopping? Just curious...
In this first pix in his eyes he looks so weary and tired and empty. WTF is going on with Nicholas
Yeah, I noticed that too. I'm wondering when this took place, exactly, because in these pictures he looks much healthier. Is this before or after the baby was born, I wonder?

EXACTLY!!! Who is taking care of the baby while the parents are jet-setting all over the globe? Hmmm... a nanny or two, most likely. Why can't wifey-poo stay home with Kal-El?

Ein undatiertes Foto des amerikanischen Schauspieler Nicolas Cage, der doo-dahs ihn gleichgültig wo summen läßt, geht. Manchmal sind die Geräusche, also deafening, muß er Ohrenpfropfen mit ihm ständig tragen. Highlight below for the translation:
An undated photo of American actor Nicolas Cage, who makes doo-dahs hum wherever he goes. Sometimes the noise is so deafening, he must carry earplugs with him at all times.

Sounds like Sushi don't care much about the pup...she did forget her pill just to get the GLAMOUR LIFE ...Nic don't probably care much either if he was not ready for a pup at 41 years old !

aw come on. that last remark is really harsh. for all that any of us really know Nicholas and Alice look washed out and miserable because theyre dealing with a colicky baby. have any of you ever dealt with a colicky baby? it's hell. pure hell. and to say Alice got pregnant on purpose for the soul purpose of money is really unfair to. we don't know anything that is going on in their lives. then to imply that Nicholas and Alice dont really want the baby. thats plain cold.
