The Conspirator

So, I've noticed that some of you have finally discovered the wonderful AND cute actor that is James McAvoy so i have a couple of films to recommend.

The Conspirator

I loved this movie. It's an awesome cast and engaging but keep in mind that there isn't car chases every minute or exciting twists. It's just a nice, thought provoking film about a historical event that most don't know anything about. My mom couldn't recall ever hearing about it.

Penelope

We had our nephews watch this and I urge you to do so with all children especially girls. Too often looks are emphasized in our society over the inner beauty. As with The Conspirator, it has an awesome cast, including brief appearances by Matt Rippy aka Captain Jack Harkness and Burn Gorman doing an American accent. James is at his most adorable and it also has Christina Ricci, Peter Dinklage who some of you have discovered through Game of Thrones and Nick Frost.

James McAvoy will also be on the Graham Norton Show that BBCA airs this Saturday. I'm excited.

I've been a little bit (ok a lot) in love with him since The Last King of Scotland. Or was Narnia first? Can't remember, but I really love most of his films. Penelope is one of my all time faves!

Narnia was first...well, technically Wimbledon was first but I didn't notice him there.

Penelope is just awesome...plus, I will still love always...this was in the middle of season two of Torchwood on BBCA America...when we were in the movie theatre watching it and my mom leans over, Is that the guy from Torchwood?

It was the first time that she asked that question and I wasn't watching Captain Jack on Doctor Who.

James McAvoy is one of my favourite actors. Sadly I don't think 'The Conspirator' had a release in the UK, and if it did then it was very lowkey! But I'll find a way to watch it! I love Penelope, and I also think Atonement is a very beautiful movie great book adaption. Starter for Ten is also pretty good and based on a good book adaption as well. I was lucky enough to see James on stage here in London and he was so friendly at the stage door >:D

Empire claimed that The Conspirator came out early last month. It was in the July or August issue.

I've got Starter for Ten in my Amazon cart, I'm just waiting on what to get with it to make it free shipping.

Plus, BBCA is going to show State of Play over here, woohoo!

I remember about your post about the play, LUCKY!
