Ed Harris did not have many fans at the Heathrow airport, that’s for sure. He was recently checked to see his belongings at the airport, what with all the bombs, riots and killings. He felt humiliated that officials questioned his character and doubted he may be carrying something of immense threat; which he actually was carrying – a box cutter.
He was shell shocked that such a famous actor as himself would not be allowed to pass through customs and make his way unlike other common men. He then made a fuss asking what it was that made the officials treat the important man so rudely. He threw about a tantrum fit for the likes of Britney and her likes. He threw his wallet about and just stood stomping his feet while officials stood firm and interrogated him for three hours. It took him a long while until he realized he was the one to be blamed to carry a knife on the plane.
