I notice that Richard E Grant is here for the Auckland Writers and Readers festival (an event I had no idea was even on, until I saw it mentioned on TV two minutes ago).
He would have to be one of my favourite British (well, by way of Swaziland) actors. Started when I saw the rather abysmal Hudson Hawk (he was about the only watchable character, I recall), and continued when, a few years later, I finally saw Withnail & I. My impression was well and truly cemented when, back in the mid-to-late 90’s, I was wandering aimlessly down Charing Cross Road, and happened to wander into Borders just when he was giving a talk about a newly released book (can’t remember which one it was, but damn he was funny).
If you have the opportunity to go to “An Hour with Richard E. Grant” (I won’t unfortunately), I’m thinking it’ll be well worth the effort.
