A Brit a Day [#1233]

My buddy Donna just linked me to the most amazing article about Daniel Radcliffe in the New York Times, and it's here:

http://www.nytimes.com/2013/10/06/magazine/daniel-radcliffe.html?pagewanted=1&_r=5&

It's long but so worth the time to read it.  I did, and while I'm still a stalwart Dan Fan, I am so, so glad I don't have to live with him.

I was thinking about James Blunt and googled a picture of him in uniform, was then reminded of how many photos I've filed away of Brits dressed for battle [Jason Isaacs is particularly good at this], and went kind of berserk with this post.  I have to say, the additional swag of the fighter pilot make Tennant and May look pretty good.

A Brit a Day Post #1066.  I've always wanted to say that.




My 11-year-old son accused me this morning, rather indignantly, of dumping Tom Hiddleston for James May.  I don't know what difference it makes to him, unless it's because he knows there are 130+ episodes of Top Gear on Netflix and he may be forced to watch them all.

Anyway, here, to prove I am capable of decades-long devotion, have some video of Alan Rickman capering with Michael Gambon at the expense of Dan Radcliffe.  And you will earn a permanent place on the Cool Wall if you know what this has to do with Top Gear.

I'm taking off the week to celebrate Christmas, and after that, who knows, I might just go straight to Anime L A.  I'll try to check in here between times.  I'll just leave some stocking stuffers here--be Merry! [in a non-LOTR sort of way.]

We haven't checked in on Dan Radcliffe recently....so here he is in some of my favorite portraits of 2012.

Benedict has invited Dan Radcliffe in today to give him tips on How To Be Your Own Dragon.  I realize I'm probably missing something here with this picture.  Feel free to enlighten me.

Ed note:  Oh look, the internet saved me again from my own ignorance.  Read more here:

This beautifully edited screen cap evokes a chill in the night air that prevents you from getting out of bed unless you really, really have to. [credit to the artist, not me]

Alan Rickman has graciously stepped into the wings this morning to make way for a nostalgic photo of his HP cast mates, Emma Watson and Dan Radcliffe.  Emma is seen here in 'The Goblet of Fire' failing miserably at becoming a wallflower.

Something came up yesterday that caused me to think of this picture, and I thought 'What the heck, I'll post it for Sunday'.

Oh. Jesus. God.

There's a shakeup in the works here at A Brit a Day.  Some new stuff later in the week.

Dan Radcliffe, just another teenager lounging on a couch....but somehow, not.

A Brit a Day [#737]

November 2005 was a big month for me--it was the first time I traveled away from home after a nearly fatal accident earlier that year.  As for reading material on that trip, I only had eyes for Harry Potter, I remember, and Dan certainly deserved to grace the cover.

A Brit a Day [#730]

Does anyone know what happened when Daniel Radcliffe's movie 'The Woman in Black' opened?  Was it well received?
