Annibyniaeth i Gymru

[MALGONIAW]

Well, promoting English actors may be a mission for a lifetime... Btw, I've been watching "Bernard and Doris" for a while - what an exquisit artist Ralph Fiennes is!!!

[MALGONIAW]

The same with me, as for Russell's Teapot etc., not forgetting about our mission to convince everybody that English actors are "creme de la creme" ! Looking forward to see the promised photo. P.S. Let's do our own version of "Jane Eyre", having Sam for the title role and I hope you'd love to write the script...

[SWfanvidProductions]

My Welsh pen-friend suggested to cut Sam into the film with Toby. It's no problem. It will take about a year or two to do that, but what is time when you have a mission? :-P

[chopinandliszt]

The Coda is one of the best moments in the movement. Too bad it's cut. Try Mozart piano concerto No.24 in C minor, Beethoven's personal favourite.

This isn't a music video. The music is just a kind of adornment. When I make such a video I never know how long the owners of the copyright will accept its existence. To minimise the risk I use classical music and cut it, because as a writer I give the story and the dialogues priority. Nevertheless the copyright of this music is already claimed and I'm very thankful that the record lable only claimed it and didn't delete the video. So a missing movement isn't my biggest trouble on Youtube.

[MALGONIAW]

I've seen the Zeffirelli's movie, and actually it's been my third favourite version (second one has been the 1944 movie with Orson Welles, perfectly matching the author's description). Sam is a very, very good looking Rivers, but "cold as an iceberg", I personally hate puritan people with some kind of "mission". How about casting Sam as Jane, don't you like the idea?

[SWfanvidProductions]

I do believe in Russell's Teapot and regard it as my personal mission to convince everybody of its existence, but apart from that I'm an atheist. :-) Well if Sam didn't object to playing Jane Eyre, I wouldn't object to seeing him like that either. You can't challange me. And the photo I'm going to send you will show you why. ROTFL

[MALGONIAW]

I will, when Sam is going to play Rochester, or at least Jane Eyre, and not that monster Rivers :-))))

[SWfanvidProductions]

Oh, Sam is a very charming Rivers. But the Jane in that film is a miscast, so I can't really recommend it. (I used it for "Inspector Westsam and the governess".) The book describes Rivers as very handsome and Rochester as very ugly. So strictly speaking Toby is a miscast, isn't he? ;-) All right, a charming miscast. Is that better? :-)

[MALGONIAW]

My mistake - it is John Gray (portrayed by Wilde as "Dorian Gray"), I think I confused this movie with another one.

Btw, it is not easy to write a comment in foreign language watching "Jane Eyre" only for ca. 50th time... :)

[SWfanvidProductions]

Yes, that's true. I understand that. But you're watching the wrong Jane Eyre. People who watch a film while posting comments on this Sam-West-fan-channel must OF COURSE watch Jane Eyre with Sam West, hahaha...

[MALGONIAW]

I meant Welsh, not Welch, of course!

[SWfanvidProductions]

And I meant "information", hahahaha. Perhaps you and I should first learn English spelling and then Welsh. :-)

[MALGONIAW]

Fabulous vid, as always! Btw, it seems to me that Ioan Gruffudd played the role of painter Aubrey Beardsley in "Wilde", not some John Gray... And good luck with Welch language lessons!

[SWfanvidProductions]

Honestly I can't remember his name in that film, because I watched it only once. (I'm about to change that soon...) Do you know IMDB (=internet movie data base)? I had a look and they say "John Gray". Where did you find your inforamtion?

[Pythonette]

How I long for a Welsh Christmas! Amusing and educational. By the by, did John Gray speak Welsh? ;)

[SWfanvidProductions]

I really don't know. (Especially because I don't know who John Gray is. hehe)

[Pythonette]

John Gray was Gruffudd's character (the one getting naked!) in WILDE and the titular basis (partly) for Wilde's great novel.

[SWfanvidProductions]

I think I've got a good memory for useless details, but names are really a problem for me. Sometimes I even can't remember the names of protagonists invented by me, hehe. But I love the book "The Picture of Dorian Gray". Mmh, good idea, I haven't read it for a while...

And nude-scenes? Really? I must have missed them, when I watched the film. I hope I didn't accidently use them in this video, did I?

[Pythonette]

Unless you consider lying down with no clothes on (about to be kissed by Stephen Fry) a"nude scene"...well, then, no. :p

Oh, and, I think it's funnier if you don't provide a translation.

[SWfanvidProductions]

Ah, now I see it, too!!! Well, I couldn't take my eyes off Stephen Fry, you know. ;-)

But what do you mean with "funnier without translation"?

[Pythonette]

I mean, just watching the clip and trying to catch on without the "cheat sheet." :)

[SWfanvidProductions]

Yes that was the original idea. But the wish of my viewers is my command. :-)

[SWfanvidProductions]

All right, for the ones who are too busy to look for the translation on the first postcard (but aren't too busy to ask me for it):

(Eddy) Good afternoon. What's the matter?

(Horatio) Go out!

(Eddy) No, thank you. It's raining!

(Horatio) Go out!!!

By the way, will you please let me know, if you accidentally find the plot of this video? Im still searching for it...
