It's so funny how he can look inexpressibly silly in those clothes when he's pretending to be a fop, and totally awesome when he lets his real personality shine through!
I love this video about a fabulous film (the best Scarlet pimpernel version ever). This song is amazing, it seems to have been written for Sir Percy. Anthony Andrews' expressions are incredible. This actor is a genius. He makes me think of Toby Stephen's in 2006 Jane Eyre version : as unexpected, and as totally convincing.
I LOVE this! It's such a cool song, and it fits Percy perfectly. Is he the most magnificent figure of a man you have ever seen, or what? I wish that there were men like that in our time... Brave and noble men can be found even in our days, but they surely do not dress as well!
So I decide to show The Scarlet Pimpernel to my friend because it is my absolute favorite movie and book and the first words out of my friend's mouth were "Oh my god. I want that golden suit!" Percy Blakeney is the sharpest dressed man. And this video captures his attitude and charisma perfectly. Thank you!
@Biscom Impressive edit to a classy tune. There is nothing more satisfying in this life than rendering assistance to distressed damsels & it helps if the assistant is dressed accordingly.
Yeaaah, Scarlet Pimpernel. I am not crazy about blond guys, but him. The Scarlet Pimpernel was my childhood idol. I used to draw his sign everywhere. That is how I gave up mermaids...:))) A girl can dream, right?
haha, i watched part of this movie in my english class. and i couldn't stop laughing at sir percy's face. it's priceless, and it's like he's about to laugh or something. LOLOLOLOLOLOL(:
Anthony Edwards is my second favorite Percy and Leslie Howard is my all time favorite Percy. Anthony Edwards was so gorgeous, debonair and so funny in this great mini-series! Thanks!
@ericthefrootbat HELL YEAH! I want to major in history (and possibly minor in theatre), and I'm obsessed with it all. Fashion especially. I have a list of people who I scared half to death just talking about corsets/stays. haha
This is fabulous! The movie is one of my all-time-favourites but at the moment I haven't got enough time to watch the whole movie - I would actually forget everything else - so I watch this video whenever I can and I'm in a good mood all day long. Thank you very, very much =)
Ich hab den auch auf DVD - ich hab nicht nur den auf DVD, ich hab auch die erste Verfilmung von 1934, die Fortsetzung von 1937, die Serie von 1999 und selbstverständlich eine deutsche Ausgabe des ersten Scarlet Pimpernel-Buchs. Was mir noch fehlt, sind die englischen Originale der Buchreihe und eine DVD von Pimpernel Smith^^ Ach ja und natürlich kenn ich mich auch mit der Musicaladaption etwas aus, jedenfalls was den deutschsprachigen Raum betrifft^^
thumbs-down #3 Saturday’s late afternoon 1 August 2020. I have watched videos showcasing this film many times, loved most of them. Then SINK ME, one comes along and gives me reason to give a thumbs-down! This film and its predecessor are classics. SO glad the British folks used the music that they did.

I agree wholeheartedly, he is so handsome and charisma.
SInk me! I cant even bring myself to look upon this cut.
This song is surprisingly perfect for him.
I love how at ease he appears! Even the way he handles his snuff box just SCREAMS he's been using one his whole life.

I just LOVE the costuming in this movie!!
I only wish there were more videos out there of him.
I had a dumb, goofy look on my face throughout this -- I don't think a single video has made me happier in a long while. :D

Odd's Fish M'dear. Lovely video. Percy is indeed a swell sharp dressed man. He was indeed the most well dressed men in England. ;)
OH YEA, Sir Percy Blakeney is one sharp-dressed man.
I so want to see Tom Hiddleston play Sir Percy!...
Zounds madam...... You just made my year.
I loved this, it was so well done. I'm a huge Anthony Andrews fan but you wouldn't even have to be. Everything just clicked with this. What a hoot.

Den Film hab ich sogar im Original auf DVD. :P Der ist gar nicht mal so übel. ;)

Ach mist, davon gibts ein Buch, oder BÜCHER? *_* Dann muss ich da mal nach schauen. Und die Serie kenn ich auch noch nicht. :(
Es gibt auch eine Serie von 1952, aber da weiß ich noch nicht, wie ich wirklich ran komm^^
Mmh, Google hilft. :P
Würde ich aber auch gern mal gucken. Müsste man sich mal nach umschauen.
Indeed this girl is... ♥

Song: "Sharp Dressed Man" by ZZ Top (Jo Dee Messina cover)
FTFY.
the only thing that could make this better would be if it was the zz top version
Good god, you're right! Depp must have seen this movie. :)
Was this song written special for him?
YES!! :D Sir Percy is simply the greatest. you can't blame us for being fan girls right?
Love Marguerite at 1:05...
@5injy ok, can I have him, pleeeease? :D
Nice job! ^_^
Excellent! lol
hahahaha awesome
Man, whenever I hear the name "The Scarlet Pimpernel", I automatically think of Blackadder!
Anthony acts like Depp! Depp must have copied his mimics for his Jack Sparrow character!!! 100000%

Why did you dislike this video, though? I think it speaks very well to his character.
More like Depp acts like Anthony.
But yeah I see what you mean.
Sink me...wasn't he pretty!
Anthony Andrews is the best Percy!
Yikes! The music! Poor Percy would have cringed!
