Peter's Friends is one of my favourite movies - kind of a British Big Chill. And this is my favourite ever version of The Way You Look Tonight, thanks for posting it!
Thank you so much for posting this! I thought I had seen all of Hugh's musical performances via YouTube, but had missed this one. Saw the film ages ago, still sweet. Thanks again.
oh my, is it strange that i find hugh's mouth trumpet one of the sexiest things ever? and the whole scene is pure beauty. the piano, their voices, their chemistry!
@masterble If you feel like it, check out "A bit of Fry & Laurie" : he played the piano and did that trumpet thing at the end of every episode, and one time he did a cute and oh so sexy thing with his tongue ... You can find it on Youtube. :)
@owowowroo This is from Kenneth Branagh's movie "Peter's Friends", with (as you can see) Hugh Laurie, Stephen Fry, Emma Thompson, Imelda Staunton, Tony Slattery, and Ken Branagh himself. He was indeed still married to Emma Thompson at the time, but in the movie, she's trying to seduce Stephen Fry's character (unsuccessfully), while Ken Branagh is married, but not happily, and is flirting with the woman he's dancing with. Awesome movie.
For everyone who comments about these actors being in Harry Potter: you should check them out too in other films too. They are incredible actors and actresses--and you only get to see a bit of that in Harry Potter. I love the British! And I love the low note Hugh Laurie hits at the end of this song :) Imelda Staunton has a remarkably good voice.
I'm pretty sure Emma Thompson was Professor Trewlawney...All of the English stars from Harry Potter are closely 'related'. you don't even need 7 degrees to match them up.
It's beautiful, and I would love to see this movie, with all my favourite-actors/actresses. I've never seen it in a store, though, but this is a "must-see-before-I-die"-film. Hugh's piano-playing, perfect as always. And I didn't know about Imelda's wonderful sing-voice. The film looks so cosy, but I've understood that it's quite dark too...
wow, imelda staunton is with these guys way back then.... and hugh laurie, stephen fry, with ken & em... Funny Kenneth Branagh uses this song again in his musical version of Love's Labour's Lost. :) Love it! They all criss-cross paths so many times in their films...
Wow. Emma Thompson, Kenneth Branagh, Imelda Staunton, and, of course, Hugh Laurie. I didn't expect to recognize so many people. Ha. One of my teachers told me about this movie. Is it really good?
Tony Slattery, who is actually quite impressive in it. I'd never had him pegged as an actor before.
Got to be my favourite scene. I remember going out and buying the sheet music for this song after I heard it in this film and was bitterly disappointed that the Kern arrangement was nothing like this one. Still brings a tear to my eye.

So many Harry Potter connections to Hugh Laurie, but as a friend they use the same actors in everything across the pond.
