RE: Peter Firth
I think he makes a very good Henry in NA. However, I don't like this version, at all. I've only kept the DVD because of PF. I very much prefer the recent ITV adaptation.
I think I'll watch Equus (bearing your warning in mind) and maybe Tess and Dorian Grey too since they seem like movies I'd like. These plus catching up on his YouTube interviews should get me started on catching up on his career, don't you think? Oh, and finally my subscription to that press archive website came in handy: Quote:In a taxi with... Peter Firth |

RE: Peter Firth
I always find he looks terribly young in Dorian, because he's playing opposite some old thugs in that. He's such a hilarious Dorian, really great, but also funny. Which is great because not many other players in the same production conveyed the levity Wilde intended as well as its pathos.
Many thanks to Tyger for a terrific signature |

RE: Peter Firth
Great Simone! +rep for that.
I love that comment 'damaged cherub look'...bless This is the first interview I have seen him mention his family life. He also mentions his boat which Silktie read about somewhere else on the net. No mention of cooking though. |

RE: Peter Firth
You're welcome & thanks!
Oh, just saw on IMDb that he also was in The Greatest Game with Shia LaBeouf. I can't remember him at all, though - silly me. Can anyone give me a hint? |

The thing is PF has the most comical walrus mustasch so its difficult to tell it's him and keep a straight face. He isnt one of the players. I think he is an organiser and was on the sidelines. |

RE: Peter Firth
Ooh and he likes women. Promising, girls!
I am excited that his eldest son is a few years older than me. Wonder if he's seeing anyone...... I truly am kidding. Many thanks to Tyger for a terrific signature |

In one of the DVD extras, could be series 4, he says his main complaints are that he doesnt get paid enough, he works too hard, and there are not enough pretty girls on the set.......I think he's a bit of a flirt......In a nice way..... |

RE: Peter Firth
Yes I often think of that too!! I can see him being very roguish (Bradford boy) but ultimately a gentleman and that's how I like 'em.
It's so funny how everyone always mentions his full lips. It's true that he mentions the cherub thing, because he does have his baby face still, just with a few more lines. Whatever. I still find him thoroughly charming Many thanks to Tyger for a terrific signature |

RE: Peter Firth
Yes he does and he still uses his boyish pout in the show. You have to have the right lips to be able to pout like that as an adult and pull it off. I can still see him pouting as
Series 5 Spoiler: show |

RE: Peter Firth
Awww, he is just adorable. I love that he doesn't take himself too seriously. Thanks Simone for the article. Glad to see another mention of the boat thing. I'm not too sure about the inflatable though - I now have a mental picture of PF rowing about in a bright orange dinghy somewhere...
