Description

<p>This week we talk about the films of Ralph Fiennes. We haven't seen all his movies, but we have seen a goodly number. If you're afraid of the sneaky and nefarious <em><strong>SPOILER</strong></em>, you probably ought to be cautious since we fear it not.</p> <p><br /></p> <p>00:10 Intro and the topic</p> <p>02:40 Fiennes and the theater (theatre?)</p> <p>06:11 Bob attempts to categorize Fiennes' films</p> <p>07:05 Bob's very wrong about <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt32236501/ " target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"><em>Macbeth</em></a> being on <a href="https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/shakespeares-macbeth-2024" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">streaming</a></p> <p>08:00 The bulk of Fiennes' movies</p> <p>13:37 Fiennes as villain</p> <p>16:03 <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118661/ " target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"><em>The Avengers</em> (1998)</a> Bob will be wrong a few seconds later about Fiennes being the villain (it's Sean Connery); not only that, Fiennes plays the hero, which would have been a good thing to have looked up before having the rest of this conversation.
