Berlin Station:
- It’s The Herald (Scotland)’s pick of the week. Also on the Irish Times list. And The Times likes it, but I saw another snippet from the Times that didn’t like it so well. Here, in The Guardian.
- Feature in Irish Daily Star and Weekend Magazine plus are here are two more blurbs I was sent photos of.
I was told this was The Times.
From The Observer.
Castlevania:
- General reviews of the series at Bloody Disgusting and Movies World (I saw this originally in Film School Rejects).
Past projects:
- (Ocean’s 8): Here’s a picture of that fish dish named after the film. Not sure I saw it last time.
- (The Snowman): Linda60 found some information about the publicity around this year’s anniversary.
Collateral attractions:
- Vinette Robinson (Between the Sheets) is appearing in Doctor Who. I included this mostly because now she’s described as being in the series “with” Richard Armitage, when at the time he was an unknown and hardly a headliner.
- Cate Blanchett (The Hobbit; Ocean’s 8) makes waves with her statement that actors should be able to play roles outside their (gender) experiences and identities. Somehow I suspect Armitage would agree, as that seems to be a motivating reason for him in wanting to act.
- Sarah Paulson (Ocean’s 8) is directing American Horror Story.
Might have been:
- Discussion of Marianne Elliott’s new production of a notorious Stephen Sondheim musical — this was the planned third piece in the season that had been supposed to include Farber’s Oedipus to Antigone.
Other Armitages:
Things we’ve talked about:
- Chris Pine’s penis is now culturally significant.
🙂 Thank you for those various media articles!
Now I am wondering who’s actually the best English actor for a spy? https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6921996/

Armitage was quoted as saying he had maybe had enough of spies. But who knows.

I saw Company when I was in London two weeks ago — it was in previews, and hadn’t officially opened yet, so hadn’t been reviewed. It was WONDERFUL! I highly recommend it to anyone finding themselves in London in the next six months. I also saw Hamilton and Arden’s Wake :), all within five days. Great time, and a welcome break from you-know-who and his crap. Also went on to Dublin, where Ruth Negga was appearing in Hamlet, directed by Yael Farber, at the Gate Theater, just a block from our hotel. I didn’t know about it ahead of time, though, and, sadly, it was sold out. 😦

It was amazing that you did get all of that in. I think Marianne Elliott must really know what she’s doing — she’s had a string of successes recently.

Cate Blanchett’s view that actors should be able to play characters outside their own gender experience would seem to be at odds with Lee Pace’s view that he gave in an interview about Angels in America play that gay characters should be played by gay actors.
Can’t help wondering what RA would think about that view?

I didn’t understand Pace to be saying that only gay actors should play gay characters, but rather that gay actors should be able to do so, i.e., they shouldn’t be excluded from these roles. But his statement admits multiple interpretations. But I don’t know why it’s an issue if Pace disagrees with Blanchett anyway. Surely actors are allowed to have different opinions?

Just to tell you that all my days and nights are not the same now, because I am one of all the fans who like books. Just to remember the libraries and towns we wrote about.
