But he's a rather good 'Edward Fox' . Many of the little mannerisms and looks are nods to the original film.Max B Gold wrote: ↑Tue Nov 19, 2024 11:40 amWatched it and it was OK.

I thought the Kneecap film on Amazon Prime was pretty funny if not quite worthy of some of the lavish praisenits received.

Re: What are you Watching Today Part 2
I just finished the 1st series of Wolf Hall and I really enjoyed it. Mark Rylance is bloody brilliant in everything he does, and this is no exception.
Started 2nd Series last night and it seems to be just as good (and the substitutions at half time seem to be working out well)

S2 is excellent. Rylance is a brilliant actor.StillSpike wrote: ↑Tue Nov 19, 2024 2:04 pm I just finished the 1st series of Wolf Hall and I really enjoyed it. Mark Rylance is bloody brilliant in everything he does, and this is no exception.

Re: What are you Watching Today Part 2
Nice one. This was a play we studied for English O Grade wouldn't mind seeing it, but looks like it ends on 23 Nov.

It does, but he does a lot of plays like this in the West End. I've seen him several times now in the last few years.
