Does Tim Roth have Parkinsons?


He seems to be stooped over and overly jittery most of the time. He is a fine actor so I hope this is just acting.

Hey, Coco, cool it. It was a simple question. Get over yourself.

Hey, careful, man! There's a beverage here!

I was just about to ask this question too because in season 1 of 'Lie To Me' he acted normal, but now in season 2 he can't control his body movements plus he gets right into the face of people, which makes it seem like he's doing the same thing Michael J. Fox did for years on 'Spin City' before he finally revealed that he had the disease. I certainly hope that he doesn't, but it does look like he has it or something similar. If not then his behavior on 'Lie To Me' is just really weird and makes no sense.

I think they just asked him to make the character more of an eccentric because the show didn't do well in its first season.

I found it a bit sad, to tell the true. I've had my share of watching Roth playing weirdos and I'd like him to see act normal for once.
