I've noticed over the years that some people have an extremely fortunate talent to be able to read words someone else writes and regurgitate them before an audience or camera in such a way that people will pay to see this process. I'm not entirely sure how much independent thought or ability to think that talent requires.
Well if we want to use Brosnan as an example then it takes ...none. And to give him credit, he seemed nice enough.... just a dunce.
