Colin Firth

I think I'm going to cinematically cheat on my favorite actors of James D'Arcy and Peter Sarsgaard, among others, and watch some (lighter) things that another actor that I think I may get interested in has been in. Said actor is Colin Firth, who in my perception of things is kind of like a more famous James D'Arcy and sort of like a British version of Leonardo DiCaprio or someone like that. More famous James D'Arcy in that they're both British and tall and good looking and have more or less similar accents. In fact, in this one interview of James, he mentioned that one role he got was because he was mistaken for Colin Firth in that the people had wanted "that Darcy guy" meaning Colin Firth (who played Mr. Darcy from Pride and Prejudice) but whoever was in charge of contacting the actors thought they meant James D'Arcy. So there's a little trivia for you.

As for Peter, I am now in possession of a DVD of one of the movies he's been in, a fact about which I am quite pleased. I already watched this movie, but I enjoyed it and the DVD only costed $3.17 at a thrift store. I haven't yet watched the DVD, and I probably should do that eventually. It's a nice thing just to have.. maybe I'll even give it the honor of watching it on the big tv instead of my computer.

There are 9 different things on Netflix that Colin Firth has been in, which is quite a large amount compared to other actors I like. I think I'll start with a romantic comedy since I've kind of been wanting to watch some lighter stuff, meaning not the movie where Peter plays a murderer, although I do think that would be interesting. I'll get to that eventually, but for now, lighter stuff.

After I watch this thing, I'll more than likely review it as I do most of the other things I watch and consider worth reviewing.
