Anthony Hopkins - just tipping my hat to this brilliant actor

[SexyGreyFox]

Yesterday I watched an absolutely brilliant film called The Worlds Fastest Indian and I was amazed at Hopkins acting ability. I don't know if this film as done the Oscar rounds yet but if it hasn't then he deserves an Oscar.
One of the first films that I realised he was an excellent actor was The Bounty when he played Lieutenant William Bligh.
Anyway, just thought I'd show my appreciation.

And theres me thinking last week before I watched it that it was about a Red Indian olympic runner

BTW Big Kev, I'd thought you'd be in here -

I completely agree. I watched it recently too and it was a great film. Hopkins was amazing giving the character a palpable depth, humility and even a wry sense of humour. IMO it's very rare that an actor manages to achieve such a portrayal of a non-fictional character. It was a great story and together with the sympathetic direction and sterling performance by Hopkins, makes it one of my favourite films. 10/10

Lets big up this wonderful film - The Worlds Fastest Indian.
I work with hundreds of people and I haven't found one person who's seen it.
