And one of my idols. Thanks for all the laughs, Mr. Cleese. You are a very silly person indeed. Happy 70th!
The Cleese
Hear hear! Didn't realize he was that, em, mature. I'd love to seem him break from type an play a truly dark character in some well written movie or series. My mom is just about to turn 70, too. But I always thought of her as younger than him. Funny how that happens. Come to think of it, I think of Brad Pitt and Keanu Reeves as being older than myself, even though they look ten years younger than I do.
Thanks
Nice trip down memory lane.
Re: Thanks
No problem -- it was tough narrowing it down to just a handful of selections, as he has had so many memorable performances, both on Python and after.
