Journal Entry 3

Yo.

Jack here.

“What actors do I admire?”

Well, I like British actors a ton.  Sir Ian McKellen is fantastic!  I mean, he’s both Magneto AND Gandalf.  How more awesome can you get?

Then there’s Michael Caine.  He wrote a book about film acting; it was the first book about acting that I bought and read because my parents and I watched him in Alfie and I found that book the next day at the book store.  He seems so real and genuine.  And grateful and realistic.  I hope he’s just like his writing in real life….

And then Hugh Laurie!  He plays an American  doctor on TV but he’s really British!  When we started watching House a few years ago I found out that he was in a bunch of TV shows on the BBC, so we started watching those.  He’s really funny!

Speaking of the BBC, we watch Dr. Who and Sherlock and Graham Norton.  So I really like David Tennant, Matt Smith, Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman (who was also Bilbo Baggins!!).  I also liked Richard Armitage in Robin Hood and Alan Rickman in Die Hard and Ralph Fiennes in Grand Budapest Hotel.

Yup.
