    Does he really think he’s not handsome? It’s not projection it’s what we see and love!!! It’s the voice and very unique features:) it’s the kindness and humbleness it’s everything in between! Ben is just perfect!!

    He's a real actor. He seems to love the process and isn't afraid of putting the work in. In an industry where most "actors" seem to be in it for the fame, its a wonderful thing. You can see he'd still be doing this even if his career hadn't blown up.
    He's one of my favorite actors along with Ben Whishaw, Cillian Murphy, and Tom Hardy (Tom Hiddleston, too, before he became shamelessly fame hungry and poisoned my enjoyment of his work)

    • @legolasgreenleaf2389

      British, French and German actors are always better than American actors. Especially British and German because they learn acting and act on stage.
      Have you ever seen top movie stars like Tom Cruise or Robert Downey Jr act on stage.

    The way he puts words together and how fast his mind works, it seems like he's always thinking two steps ahead. He sounds really intelligent... or maybe it's just the accent.

    Really, really enjoyed this interview. Loved hearing him talk about his craft. I hadn't realized just how much studying and work he's put into it. You can definitely see that it has paid off, though. I think he's the best actor of our generation, hands down.
    (Not to mention, but listening to him talk is SO intellectually satisfying lol)

      I agree and disagree. I wish he would practice more Shakespeare. I know he was broadcast all over the world, but I want to see him do it again after years of doing movie acting. I want to see him do more theatre again, honestly, and see if he stepped up his game. I want to see him play Macbeth. lol

    It's so much pleasure to look at all the positive comments for your favourite actor. I was watching Brexit 's trailer and people there were so negative. People were calling him names and criticising his acting his skill. My day got ruined. Then I bumped into this video and here I'm listening to him and also reading all the adorable comments. Thanks to you guys to revive my day.

    He is so lucky to have such talented 💖 actors for parents who he definitely gets his acting skill from. I saw his mum Wanda Wentham in a frankenstein movie recently and could see that benedict inherited his lovely dreamy eyes 👀 from her. I am a total fan of his 🥰. What's not to like. This is a great conversation between the two of them and I felt that I have learnt a lot about what skills he brings to each role. Amazing experience 🤭.

    I loved him in in the part of the murderer in silent witness. A very talented man who seems to be modest, friendly, appreciative of fans and at the same time very protective of his family and personal life. What a lovely change from 90% of most actors. Additionally he doesn't spout political views which Ego Mortensen does. Ego ends up showing what a dumb blonde who dates women younger than his son to shore his self esteem Benedict is happily married, pleased to be a father, shows up at work, courteous to everyone on the set, knows his lines and appreciative of the opportunities he has been given. And he says kind things about his parents. Can we have him give seminars about how adult males should behave. Maybe he could team up with David Tenant and they could do an international lecture on these skills.

    acting is about escaping yourself, the limitations of self. Life is too short to be limited by the constraints of the genetics or the location or other aspects of the circumstance. A scrambling after an alternative circumstance.. Imitation is escape

    I know they could not get into every project he's done but recently I saw him in a short film called Inseparable. Its one of the best shorts I've ever seen. That is a perfect example of how short film should be made. There was very little dialogue, but yet the performance of him playing twins was amazing. you can see the whole thing on youtube ua-cam.com/video/ClOsx7MQV-I/v-deo.html

    • @minimushrooom
      @minimushrooom 2 роки тому +1

      I think it's more the sound quality of the video/mic, I'm no expert but he's got a very deep voice and this seems very bass boosted which combined can make it hard to understand when people are speaking fast
