I like to see people dressed when they’re in public. – Tom Weathersby
I don’t generally like these “Top Ten” video things, but I wanted to honor the passing of John Hurt, possibly one of the most underrated actors of our time, by reminding you of his many top-notch performances. The links above the video were contributed by Brooke Magnanti (“steakification”), Tim Cushing (“easy” and “first”), Emma Evans (“paging”), Lucy Steigerwald (“police”), and Carol Fenton (“counseling”).
