The Boat That Rocked
(2009)
Delightful
12 August 2009
I saw it twice on my overseas trip to Egypt and twice on my way back and loved every minute of it. I mimed the songs (passengers on the plane would not have appreciated me belting out Rolling Stones and Donovan:)) and danced on my seat all the way. Philip Seymor Hoffman was a delight and quite a fantastic actor and he really had tough competition since the whole cast was exceptional. Rhys Ifans is a far cry from the skinny weirdo on Notting Hill. Bill Nighy was a bit similar to his Love Actually role, still a favorite of mine. Emma Thompson was on for a few minutes, but you cannot imagine anyone else in that role. And, you can hardly recognize Kenneth Branagh! A must see movie for young and old, especially old because it will make them feel young again. I am 57 today!!
Glynn Turman
5 October 2008
Warning: Spoilers
His was the best acting I have seen in quite some time. I have always been a fan of Gabriel Byrne and really enjoy that faint Irish accent of his, but he definitely had his match with the fantastic Mr. Turman. The previous episode, Paul, Gabriel Byrne, meets Alex Sr., Glynn Turman, at the funeral. I had the feeling that Paul was watching Alex Sr., trying to relate what Alex Jr. told him about his father. In this episode, Alex Sr. is extremely confrontational as he wants to find out what his son revealed to Paul about him. He is a tormented person, he was responsible for killing his father and wanted to know if he was also responsible for killing his son. This episode was so intense, I could not blink. I tell you, you do not see this kind of acting anymore.
