Peter Firth

[DogSoSmall]

I watched White Angel last night and am once again awestruck at PF's talent. With each new character I see him play I become more aware of his skill. As well as his voice, demeanor and expression, it is the way he moves his body that so completely denotes character. He has moved differently in every part that I've seen him play. That must be a very difficult thing to do. How do you begin to work out how to walk like a sociopath? And then achieve it so naturally? I used to think that PF was wonderfully masculine and sexy. Now I realise it is Harry Pearce that is masculine and sexy, because that is the way PF has very deliberately portrayed him. So many actors have to play themselves, at least physically. Once again I bemoan the fact that he is not more lauded for talent. I know he is acknowledged in the business as a fine actor, but it seems to be a bit of a state secret of its own!

By the way, I still think Peter is super-sexy. His voice and talent alone would achieve that effect, but I love his gorgeous cuddliness too!
