Gladiator II Review (Spoiler-free mostly) under the cut!) Viewing #1

⚔️🏛️👑🌸 I would say on my first Gladiator 2 viewing… it’s definitely not as smoothly paced as the original film. The editing was fairly choppy where it moved quickly to the next scene and there’s not much time to breathe after something big happened, so I could tell there were definitely deleted/extended scenes, which is typical of Sir Ridley and hopefully we may see an extended cut in the future 🌹🌹Paul was very good as the leading role, giving a brooding performance where you feel for him and he carries subtle mannerisms of Russell Crowe without doing an impression…and Pedro doesn’t have a whole lot of screen time as the promos make it seem but he’s compelling as always and fits the Roman era and he has a touching dynamic with Connie Neilson, who I felt sadly was given less to do than in the first film… I did notice Richard McCabe playing the announcer of the Colosseum and Tim McInnery as a senator who’s connected to Denzel Washington’s character. Poor Derek Jacobi was kinda wasted in his returning role as Senator Grachuss from the first film as he only has a handful of lines and just a couple small scenes. Denzel was an entertaining aspect to the film, kinda a Shakespeare Othello/Iago type where he has his own agenda… and last but not least, Joseph as Emperor Geta and Fred Hechlinger as Caracalla, the twin brother emperors… the film doesn’t really explain why they are chosen to rule after the fall of Commodus but they certainly are entertaining to watch, using every moment they’re onscreen (which isn’t as much compared to Joaquin Phoenix) to keep you guessing what they’ll say and do next, definitely standouts as villains and JQ most certainly shows his range in the same year he played a gentle mannered law student in Quiet Place Day One… I‘ll most likely see it once more on Saturday for a second go around… there’s also references to Greek and Roman mythology that I appreciated 💘⚔️👑🏛️ Not as spotless as the original but a good continuation of the story we all know and love from 25 years ago 🌺🌺 and the opening credits scene instantly grabs you with beautiful paintwork with images from the first film and the rousing music 🤍🤍⚔️⚔️

Isn’t that Tim McInnery?

[pers-books]

Well that was absolutely excellent! Nicola Walker was playing two roles - she reprised her role as Eleanor from The Shadow Over Innsmouth and The Whisperer in the Darkness. She also played a new role - Mrs Boone - who was delightfully violent!

Can highly recommend, but it probably helps if you’ve heard the other audios in Julian Simpson’s Pleasant Green universe. Some are linked through that TV Tropes page (on Julian Simpson’s Soundcloud). The Mythos audios are up on the BBC website and you can find  the three podcasts for The Lovecraft Investigations up on Apple Podcasts.

(If anyone cannot find any of the audios let me know!)

Mycroft has a twin...

Anyone ever seen Stephen Fisher from New Tricks? He has to have been based on Mycroft. His episodes of New Tricks are dated 2012, Sherlock is 2010. They are like 2 peas. I'm now wondering about a cross over.

Perhaps it's twins... Sherlock has twin brothers, Alexander Mycroft Maurice and Stephen Siger George. They hate each other, and in their youth, Sherlock often took delight in playing them off one against each other. However, when Mycroft finally marries, Sherlock is bored of his brothers’ behaviour. They're not quite identical, and Mycroft is relieved. No more so that when his new husband finally meets his third sibling. When Mycroft refered to ‘the other one’ he wasn’t talking about Eurus. 

Interestingly, Tim McInnery played Sir Eustace Carmichael in The Abominable Bride. Anyway, this just happened...

~~~~~~

��Stephen?”

“Mycroft,” the solemn man acknowledged with barely a raised eyebrow, as though he were deeply surprised to find confirmation of something he suspected and was doing a monumental job of hiding it. 

“I was not aware that you would be...here.” Spoken as though there were no better words to describe their current location. 

“My own brother’s wedding? Why on earth not?” 

“Because you have never deigned to stir yourself from the Diogenes for anything less than a National Emergency, that is why not,” Mycroft retorted pointedly. 

Greg was looking between the two men with barely disguised shock. If he was being honest, he was probably doing a terrible job of hiding it. He couldn’t stop looking at the newcomer, wondering. He looked so like Mycroft but not like... He gave up and fixed Mycroft with a look.

“Introduce us?” the new man suggested.

Mycroft seemed to collect himself, although, if Greg was any judge he was seething. “Pardon my manners, Stephen. This is Gregory Lestrade...”

“Detective Chief Inspector, no less,” the anonymous man said, an oily and somewhat insincere smile in place. He proffered a hand, and Greg reached to shake, noting a slightly limp hold, most likely calculated to misdirect. 

“Gregory, I would...not ‘like to’ exactly...but I will tolerate presenting my brother to you, on this occasion. This is Stephen, my twin.”

“Your twin? You...have a twin?”

“Alas, yes,” Mycroft admitted.

“Alas, true,” Stephen said, simultaneously. The two men shared a glance, then turned their attention back to Greg. Their twin gazes were unsettling.

“When were you going to tell me you had a twin, Mycroft?” Greg said, his voice dangerously low.

“Probably never,” both men spoke in unison again. Greg glared, flummoxed and somewhat upset. Even on their wedding day, Mycroft had to go and prove that he still didn’t trust his partner. 

“Oh dear, brother mine, I think there is trouble in paradise already,” Stephen observed, mildly. 

“You, whoever you are, this has nothing whatever to do with you,” Greg growled. “Really, I should have expected this, shouldn’t I? You and your idiot brother, with a crazy sister who tries to murder the both of you, and now...him! What else have you got? A mad husband locked in an attic? Oh, no, perhaps that position is reserved for me, because frankly, you’re driving me nuts!” 

“Gregory...you cannot possibly understand...”

“Oh, I think he understands too well, brother dear,” came the sarcastic reply. 

“Too bloody right, I do. This is our wedding day, Mycroft. How could you not tell me about your twin brother?”

“Easily, believe me. Has it done any good finding out about him? No. It has not. You might have continued in blissful ignorance of his existence, had he had the common decency to stay in his retreat, to hibernate like the snake he is,” Mycroft growled.

“Snakes do not actually hibernate, Mycroft. They go into a state known as brumation where they become less active and their metabolism slows down tremendously...”

“Oh, shut up!” Mycroft snapped. “Always trying to prove yourself the clever one. Why couldn’t you just stay away? You always spoil things...”

“Spoil things? Like you didn’t queer my pitch with the Brazilian Ambassador...”

“Are you still bringing that up? That was thirty years ago. He was never going to be attrac...”

“Thanks to you, I never found out!”

“Stephen, you utter Prick, just...go home!”

wondering if you heard of 'Mrs. Davis' show? I just finished it and enjoyed the romance aspect, although it's not the central focus (it's pitched as zany AI hijinks but is more about spirituality/interpersonal relationships, IMO). It's not BatB themed or anything and pretty silly on occasion, but the character arcs are earnestly handled and it wasn't cynical, so wanted to mention to you just in case you might be interested :) warning, there is some 'gore' but in a more comic fashion, and is basically 3 scenes that aren't essential to witness.

I have never heard of this! What do you like about it, anon?

[skeleton-richard]

Not that the 1998 BBC radio production of Two Planks and a Passion isn't perfect but it cut some of the bits with medieval politics that would slow it down for most audiences and that's okay I guess but it means we didn't get to hear Tim McInnery go on a small-r religious reform tangent!

New UK Trailer For 'The Aeronauts' Released

  [kad_youtube url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmsBuG1eY8w&feature=youtu.be” width=800 height=500 ]

  “Felicity Jones and Eddie Redmayne reunite in this thrilling drama directed by Tom Harper (Wild Rose) and written by Jack Thorne (Wonder). Set in 1862 and inspired by true events, The Aeronauts follows wealthy young widow Amelia Wren (Jones) and headstrong scientist James Glaisher…

[eddie-redmayne-italian-blog]

First-look photo of Eddie Redmayne and Felicity Jones in The Aeronauts

Story by Jack Foley

AMAZON Studios announce that principal photography has begun across the UK and in London for the feature film The Aeronauts.

The film reunites Felicity Jones (Rogue One: A Star Wars Story) and Eddie Redmayne (Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, The Danish Girl) following their successful collaboration on The Theory of Everything, where Jones received an Oscar nomination and Redmayne went onto win the Oscar for his performance of Stephen Hawking.

The Aeronauts is directed by BAFTA nominee Tom Harper (War & Peace, Peaky Blinders) and is written by BAFTA winner Jack Thorne (Harry Potter & The Cursed Child, Wonder, Radioactive).

Set in 1862, The Aeronauts follow wealthy young widow Amelia Wren (Jones) and ambitious scientist James Glaisher (Redmayne) as they mount a balloon expedition to fly higher than anyone in history.

This is a journey to the very edge of existence, where the air is thin and the chances of survival are slim. As their perilous ascent reveals their true selves, this unlikely pair discover things about each other – and themselves – that help them find their place in the world they have left behind.

The film is produced by Harper, with Todd Lieberman and David Hoberman for Mandeville Films (Wonder, Stronger, Beauty and the Beast), and executive produced by Richard Hewitt. FilmNation Entertainment is handling international sales.

“A top priority for us on The Aeronauts is authenticity. With that in mind, we intend to do as much balloon filming in the sky as the weather will allow,” explains Lieberman. “This image was taken after we launched Felicity and Eddie 2,000 feet in the air, performing their scripted scene, while a helicopter captured it all. We’re fortunate that Felicity and Eddie have the nerve to do these stunts themselves as it authenticates our entire approach.”

Additional cast joining Jones and Redmayne include Oscar nominee Tom Courtenay (45 Years), BAFTA nominee Anne Reid (The Last Tango in Halifax), BAFTA winner Rebecca Front (The Thick of It), Vincent Perez (Riviera), Tim McInnery (Game of Thrones), Phoebe Fox (The Hollow Crown) and Himesh Patel (forthcoming Danny Boyle, Richard Curtis project).

The director of Photography is BAFTA winner George Steel (War & Peace, Peaky Blinders), with costumes by Alexandra Bryne (Oscar winner for Elizabeth: The Golden Age and Oscar nominated for Finding Neverland, Elizabeth and Hamlet) and hair and make-up by Jenny Shircore (Beauty and the Beast, Macbeth).

I didn't know you like mystery plays!!! Ahhhhh!!! I love them too!!! We studied them in Middle English class a couple years ago.

Okay SO. This is one of the best modern plays ever (and of course with my luck it's not revived very often). It takes place in York, 1392, and the guilds are preparing for the Corpus Christi plays and then the city goes into overdrive when they find out the king and queen are going to be in York for the festival. Everything possible goes wrong of course-- budget cuts, the young man playing Mary is growing a beard now, one of the richer guilds hires a professional actor, everyone wants Richard's and Anne's favor. They're there for rest away from London (this was the year of Richard's big feud with the city), Anne is sick, and their boyfriend has returned from exile (which he technically shouldn't have done but). And oh yeah this play from 1983 has Richard as not only openly bisexual, but it has a happy, functional poly relationship between him, Anne, and Robert de Vere, and no one is ever gross about it and they all adore each other and it's so sweet and easily the best part of the play because they're all written so well.

Actually everyone is written really well, including the uppity townspeople (who are hysterical in trying to curry royal favor), and the lower class workers, who (spoiler) put on the best play of the cycle. It ends up being a beautiful meditation on the nature of theater, humility, expressions of faith, and what's really important in life and maybe it's a good thing I haven't seen it because I would be sobbing through all of Act 2. And it's especially fun if you're familiar with medieval drama, especially the York Cycle, because then you understand the theatrical conventions they reference (wagons! Each guild putting on a particular play! Hammy, farting Herod!) and it uses a good chunk of the actual York Crucifixion for the final scene, by which point you will be crying. Minghella is an absolute genius.

There is one recorded version I've been able to track down, this one, from BBC Radio, with Bill Nighy as Richard, Sophie Thompson as Anne, and Tim McInnery as Robert, it's cut down a bit from the full script so it moves a bit faster for an audio performance but it doesn't miss anything important and the performances are all fabulous.

1998 BBC Radio performance: https://archive.org/details/TWOPLANKSANDAPASSION

I've been tracking down pictures of the York performance in 2011, which they did a year before they performed the Cycle. They had two "guilds" who alternated performances, so they had two sets of casts, and those were all local people, and Richard, Anne, and Robert were played by professionals and played with both guilds. I've made some posts about pictures, I'll tag you in them.

ANYWAY sorry if I rambled, this is just a really amazing play and when I heard it and read some descriptions of performance I knew I had to tell you about it because it's so fascinating, especially how it combines modern and medieval theater! I hope you have a chance to listen to it soon because I think you'll really like it!

I can't remember, did I ever tell you about Two Planks and a Passion by Anthony Minghella? I've been trying to find pictures of performances and they did it in York in 2011 and I think you'd find how they did it interesting, most of the cast were locals and they were divided into three ensembles who alternated performances, each team named for a guild (since the play centers on the York Mystery Cycle, which was historically performed by the town's guilds)! (also it's just an insanely good play)

You haven’t told me about it, but I’ve heard tell through the theater grapevine! Please share all of the things! I freaking love the Mystery plays.

"Notting Hill" Film Locations: A Self-Guided Walking Tour

01 of 10

Explore the London Settings of This Romantic Comedy

The 1999 film “Notting Hill” is set in the district of London by the same name where a bookshop owner played by Hugh Grant meets a famous American actress played by Julia Roberts, and if you're taking a trip to England's capital city, you can take a walking tour of locations made famous by this romantic comedy.

To help you find the key locations, the following step-by-step instructions can be used a self-guided walking tour starting from Notting Hill Gate tube station. The walk is about two miles long and will take under an hour to complete from start to finish, but you could also spend more time at any of these destinations, so make sure to set aside extra time to enjoy some of these London staples.

The Print Room (Formerly Coronet Cinema)

At 103 Notting Hill Gate—next to or opposite the Notting Hill Gate tube station (depending on which exit you take)—you'll find the ​Print Room, which was formerly the Coronet Cinema. This is where the character William (Hugh Grant) watched “Helix,” the science fiction short film starring Anna Scott (Julia Roberts).​​​​​

The Coronet opened as a theater in 1898 and was such a well-respected venue that it was where King Edward VII saw a performance and Sir John Gielgud watched his first Shakespeare play. It served as a cinema for the local community for years and was transformed back to a theater in 2010.

If you have the time, you can return here later at night to catch an Off-West End show, a poetry reading, musical performance, or even an educational talk or discussion.

Bella & Max’s House

Laura Porter

The next stop on the tour is the home of William's little sister Bella, played by Gina McKee. From the Print Room, walk down Notting Hill Gate towards Holland Park tube station. At Holland Park station, turn right onto Lansdowne Road then walk until you come to 91 Lansdowne Road on your right.

In the film, William surprises his younger sister and her partner Max (Tim McInnery) by bringing the famous Anna to Gina' birthday party. William and Anna wind up leaving the party rather intoxicated, laughing as they ventured out into the neighborhood. You can snap a quick picture in front of the building before continuing to follow the pair back into the neighborhood.

Continue to 4 of 10 below.

04 of 10

Rosmead Gardens

Laura Porter

Right around the corner, you can take in excellent views of Rosmead Gardens, where Anna and William first stumbled drunkenly after leaving Gina's house. Simply turn around and make your first right onto Rosmead Road.

Anna and William break into these private communal garden, but while the movie may have made it appear like a good idea to break into these gardens, it's best to just observe them from the road. Not only is it illegal to trespass on this private property, but if you try to climb over the wall like Hugh Grant, there is a pretty big drop from the railings on the other side and you could get injured.

Rosmead Gardens is part of the Ladbroke Estate, which includes other nearby private gardens: Arundel Gardens and St. John's. Despite looking like a small park, these private gardens are owned and maintained by the local residents who are the only people who have a key to gain access.

Portobello Road Market

From the gardens, head back to the left along Lansdowne Road, past Gina's house, and make a left onto Ladbroke Grove (the first left). Walk up a block to Elgin Crescent, make a right, then continue two blocks before making another right onto Portobello Road.

This section of the street is known as Portobello Road Market, which is one of the most famous street markets in the world. With markets held six days a week—including the popular Saturday antique sale—Portobello Road Market is a great way to spend the afternoon even if you're not a fan of the “Notting Hill” film.

In the opening scene of the movie, William (Hugh Grant) is seen walking down Portobello Road Market on his way to his bookshop, The Travel Book Company.

The Travel Bookshop

Laura Porter

For fans of the film, in particular, the Travel Book Shop is a must-see destination on the walking tour and is less than a block from where you turn onto Portobello Road from Elgin Crescent.

142 Portobello Road was used as the location for William Thacker's (Hugh Grant's) Travel Book Co. in the movie, but there has never been a bookshop here. It was formerly the Nicholls Antique Arcade, then a furniture store called Gong, and it currently serves as a gift shop. There is a sign on the building on Portobello Road for “The Travel Book Shop” that's remained in place since filming took place in 1998. 

The fictional bookstore in the film was based on the real Travel Bookshop nearby (13 Blenheim Crescent), which you can get to by turning back down Portobello Road, walking past Elgin Crescent, and making a left on Blenheim Crescent. The original Travel Bookshop closed in 2011 but has since reopened as the Notting Hill Bookshop.

Continue to 7 of 10 below.

07 of 10

The Blue Door (William’s Flat)

Laura Porter

For the next stop, you'll continue up Portobello Road to the left from the Notting Hill Bookshop, past Saint's Tattoo Parlour where a confused man in the movie stumbles out with a tattoo of “I Love Ken” but no recollection of why he got it. The next road, Westbourne Park Road, is where you'll find the famous blue door that leads to William's flat in the film.

The house was once owned by the movie's screenplay writer, Richard Curtis. The blue door was incredibly popular and many people came to write their name on it, but the original was removed and sold at auction at Christie's. It was replaced with a black door to not attract so much attention, but time has moved on and the current owners have kindly painted the door blue again.

The property is valued in the multi-millions and is actually a converted chapel, with huge windows and ornate church features so nothing like the studio set used for the interior scenes in the movie. You can't see any of this from the street though, but you can snap a quick photograph in front of the new blue door.

Continue to 8 of 10 below.

08 of 10

Coffee Shop

Laura Porter

Once you've snapped a photograph, head back across Portobello Road to the opposite corner, where you'll find a chain coffee shop called CoffeeBello. In the film, there was a small cafe next door with tables and chairs on the sidewalk, but now it's a hair salon.

This is where William (Hugh Grant) buys a glass of orange juice and then bumps into Anna (Julia Roberts) on the corner, spilling the juice on her. He then explains he lives just across the road and suggests they go there to get cleaned up.

Continue to 9 of 10 below.

09 of 10

Tony’s Restaurant

Laura Porter

From the coffee shop on the corner, you can continue down Portobello Road the way you were heading before stopping at the blue door. You'll pass under The Westway then turn right onto Golborne Road to arrive at 105 Golborne Road, where you'll find the location of Tony's Restaurant in the film.

Now an art store and gift shop called Portfolio, this location in the film was owned by William Thacker's friend Tony (Richard McCabe). The aptly-named Tony's Restaurant was deemed a failure, but Tony and his friend Bernie played “Blue Moon” on the piano on the night it closed in the film.

Continue to 10 of 10 below.

10 of 10

Ending the Walking Tour

From here you could walk along Portobello Road all the way back to Notting Hill Gate, although Ladbroke Grove tube station or Westbourne Park tube stations are both closer. Alternatively, you could continue up Golborne Road and take a walk along the Grand Union Canal.

To reach the canal, walk up Golborne Road and continue straight ahead, passing Trellick Tower on your right. When the road bends to the left and becomes Kensal Road, head onto the canal path next to Meanwhile Gardens. Turn right and in about 20 minutes you'll reach Little Venice where you could consider doing the Little Venice to Camden Walk.
