      Hello Judith, that is quite remarkable!
      Was he already an international legend in the 1980s? ! I am asking because I was born in the 1980s; and I have always liked only the "good old things".
      Jeremy is not old though: he is getting more and more handsome as time goes by. Such a gift he is to us all!!
      Can I ask you - if it be appropriate to enquire - how long did it take for you to get that letter with his reply????
      I am very glad that you got it.
      Personally, I do not believe in mere "luck", but rather in things happening because they are meant to be, destined to be. Thank you.

      @@kindtonature5000 Hello, It probably too over a month or two to get a reply, as I was in Hollywood and he was in UK, and I’d forgotten about sending him a request letter for his autograph! It was perhaps mid to late 1980’s. Later, saw him in person, on The Tonight Show taping in Burbank! I believe he’s now 73.

    It is a bit of a pity that the interviewer was not picking up on subjects Mr. Irons was laying on the table. For instance the art of cleaning. And also the way Mrs. Streep was helping Mr. Irons transition to and from being lovers. I could see Mr. Irons was still emotional and in awe of how Mrs. Streep helped him. It would have been nice if the interviewer would have taken a moment of silence and let Mr. Irons have his emotions. And also let the audience have their emotions, because Mr. Irons told it so lovely. But unfortunately the interviewer went on with the list of questions on his lap.

    attore polivalente,che ha saputo dar vita ad un personaggio sofferto come Steve Fleming.in "Damage",ha magistralmente interpretato la parte del parlamentare inglese integerrimo,padre perfetto e marito fedele.ma nel suo sguardo,trapela un che di sofferto,é a disagio nella sua bella casa,vuole bene alla moglie ma,raramente,ha momenti di passione con lei.l'amore e la passione autentica li proverà per la fidanzata del figlio,al punto da ritrovare sé stesso e penserà di regolarizzare la sua vita sentimentale.ma tutto gli rema contro e la tragedia irromperà nella sua vita.una parte difficile,che un attore del suo carisma ha saputo recitare benissimo,al punto che,anche se alcuni critici stroncarono un po' questo film di Louis Malle,secondo me un Oscar era più che meritato

      @@jimmaculate3802 It has nothing to do with the fact that he's older. It has to do, with the fact his cheekbones are practically centered at the top of his nose, (they're not quite there but it's very close,) his nose is in perfect harmony with his chin, and his cheekbones are so sharp you wonder how on earth he's even able to sleep on them. He is nothing short of a marvel of facial architecture. In all honesty, he's probably the reason a lot of these women get a thing for older men in the first place.

      That's a great point about being a brave actor, I mean to play those twins in Dead Ringers, and a paedophile in Lolita amongst others, takes some guts. Also he believes in equality for all too and that's a rare thing amongst the famous these days. And Brideshead absolutely still holds up beautifully today.

    • @catherinevictorkern5397
      @catherinevictorkern5397 Před 2 lety +2

      No. Yes, Jeremy Irons is a very good actor. But British people and Americans must STOP thinking they are better than anybody. Stop thinking "We are Zee BESYT". My first University English Professor introduced himself on the blackboard writing his name " I am Dr. BEST". Yes, he repeated his name several times, awfully proud of himself. Then, he gave us a reading list of American and English novels to read all along stressing out these were the BEST writers in the world. Today, I have taught, formed professional actors for several decades, this in several languages and really hardly any English speaking people speak any languages nor are capable of acting on stage in roles speaking in several languages. But this is to point out how inflexible anglophones actors really are..... They are limited, often physically boring, they are stiff and either too British or too American.

Regular middle class British is a foreign language to me, as unlike RP as the cockney Eliza Doolittle is from the Queen.
