Those were two friends both bound for great things both wanted similar things. One was better at politics, the other stronger in faith. No mater the arguments, or how strong a person is. When your going to uncertainty its best to have a friend so you can be honest and say I'm scared, and they can say its ok im here.
In my opinion, this beautiful movie should be free on youtube to be watched by as many people as possible for its historical context, people who had faith in God and people of good will.
William Pitt the Younger was a prodigious drinker. He buggered his constitution with endless bottles of Madeira, Port wine, etc. And he was a skinny little runt to start with.
There Are very little REAL friends these days........You Are lucky of You have just one.....just one!!!........how fuckt up this world Has become.......
I have no idea. But even if it were true, how does it have any relation to the man today? Surely he isn't expected to bear the blame or pay for the sins of his forefathers?
Go back far enough...and we are all descended from murderers, rapists, thieves and oppressors...you'll also find saviours, heroes and victims...we are not our forefathers, we cannot claim the glory of their triumphs nor carry the blame for their sins.
Sorry if this is late, but a number of outside scenes ( including this one ) were shot at the former Greenwich Hospital, now part of the University of Greenwich and around Salisbury, Wiltshire.
Yes! It was the first film of his that I saw, and even though I didn't know who he was at the time (I must have seen this something like 8 years ago now) I was so impressed by the sureness of his character, the kind of just quiet confidence that he played him with. Then I saw War Horse... then Sherlock. And that was all it took. Definitely my favorite actor and a huge fan of his, too!
True story; my sister and I were watching this movie in the theatre and saw Benedict Cumberbatch act for the first time and I said pointing to Benedict; "that guy is gonna be a big star someday cause he's really good" and now he's the biggest British star ever!
Haha that's amazing!!! (and same! I adore Sherlock xD) I wish now that I'd verbalized something to my sister way back when :P then I could have said told you so, haha. He definitely deserves all the success he's had! His talent is UNREAL.
