Hmm, someone's getting some Kimutaku payola... :beaten:

Brilliant choice! Abe was fantastic, as usual. :smitten:

Keps wrote:Yes Wynter, Beem is correct. "To blub" means "to cry". The word and its derivations are fairly well-used in England. It's quite an informal word, though.

Ahhhhh okies. I'm gonna try using it in a sentence sometime. Such a great sounding word.

We do disagree, but then, this is the sort of disagreement that I enjoy.

I can't count the number of nights I've spent in coffee houses, and bars, arguing about the differences in Olivier's courtly, chivalrous Henry V, compared to say... Branagh's "just one of the guys", portrayal of the part. Or Olivier's contemplative Hamlet, compared to Gibson's "action hero" version of the part. Or Olivier's dottering Lear compared to Scofield's furious performance.

But this is not the thread for this. Sorry folks.

Anyway...

Re: Kekkon Dekinai Otoko. Yup. 2 episodes in, and so far, so good. Ryoko is a pip.

And aside from the good looks, talent and success, I find myself identifying completely with Abe's character.

Geezer,

Disagreement, when cogently presented, is often stimulating. It certainly keeps the blood circulating in old farts like you and me.

Did you actually get an opportunity to see Olivier perform on stage? If so, that must have been a memorable experience.

Glad you're enjoying Kekkon Dekinai Otoko. Like I mentioned, the acting of the principal characters is excellent; heck, even the dog is good.

Ruri no Shima episode 1 (rewatching for the 3rd time) :victory:

Don't spoil it for others, please... There's a thread for this drama, y'know.

Lol. :rofl:
But that's the thing - I'm no monster, so I just know I'm gonna go into blub-overdrive if I continue with BL. :mrgreen:
