By the way when you become an American citizen are you still a British Lord? The Title Sir comes with you to America?/

I am not against it , but does it?

I saw The World's Fastest Indian last week. Very wholesome and uplifting movie.

He is absolutely right on the camera crap. This is especially so on TV in dance sequences: you can't even watch performers or dancers anymore, because the camera jiggles around so much.

The film reunites him with director Roger Donaldson, with whom he had a stormy relationship while filming The Bounty in 1983.

No single actor can do extreme characters better than Sir Hopkins. He played one of the most Christian characters in history, CS Lewis ... then he played Hannibal. And he played both so well. He can do anything in-between. He gives me the creeps! He's that good!

....one of the only people of Hollywood who can actually act, disses Hollywood.

Sweet.

Remains of the Day was one of the finest movies I ever saw.

Sometimes, it's kind of sad that Hannibal Lecter is a fictional character. So many free-range rude, so little time.

Hopkins is a class act in an increasingly classless business.

There is a jewel of a movie called 84 Charing Cross Road with Anthony Hopkins and Anne Bancroft. It is one of my favorites. Has anyone else seen it?

"I'm also tired of the camera moving all over the place, with car chases so cut and edited you don't know what's happening," he told the Radio Times.

The day you make this complaint is the day you are officially old.

Of course, now some Hollywood elitists will find people to say that he acted poorly towards movie crews, etc.

I adore Anthony Hopkins. I saw him on stage in the late 1970's. Too bad he finds theater work monotonous because he was brilliant.

Is he still a fan of Clinton's, I wonder? Talking that way about Hollywood makes me wonder if he wised up and decided the glittery population isn't the cat's PJs after all.And yes,he certainly is an excellent actor.
