Daniel Craig pre-Bond. A BBC production of a play featuring 3 actors - Mr & Mrs Bohr and Craig as Heisenberg. It’s about their meetings before and after WWII discussing atomic bomb development. The dialog is stilted in that way that some plays are but the actors turn in some decent performances despite the excessively artsy borderline pretentious camera work.
I confess dozing off several times. Yuki was snuggled by my side and it was just so cozy. The story revisits the same scene repeatedly - when everyone is reunited in Copenhagen and I kept waking up at that same scene, which was confusing. Stacy liked it and was pleased that I had a nice nap.
Craig’s eyes weren’t nearly as blue. No swordfights or tentacles. Not D00M recommended no matter how much you might like Craig. See Layer Cake instead.

Layer Cake was excellent.
In the Tudor Period, Fencing Masters were classified in the Vagrancy Laws along with Actors, Gypsys, Vagabonds, Sturdy Rogues, and the owners of performing bears.

I haven't seen that one. I'm confusing it with Logan Lucky.
As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm

It’s an excellent English gangster movie.

Agreed. I think that’s what earned Craig the part.
it was reviewed on a previous incarnation of our D00M4m

I thought it was his turn in Spielberg's "Munich".

Note that the latest Q (Ben Whishaw) was also in Layer Cake.

So noted, but not remembered. It's been 10 years since I've seen it. Maybe 15.

Actually I only knew because it came up whilst I was checking my facts on fandom. But I figured I'd drop that knowledge here to sound more authoritative. Cuz dats wot I do.
