Your vision of Brew?

Post by Rigel »

So I'm halfway through The Man Who Fought Alone, and I've got to say that I'm loving the whole series :)

Anyway, something odd has happened to my perception of Brew... when I read his lines, I both see and hear Jean Reno delivering them! I know that there's no way Brew would be French, but I can't help but thinking if they ever made movies out of these, he would be a great choice for the lead.

Can't say I see Reno. I think of The Professional or Ronin, and they're both too calm and detached... no gut. My first pick would be Anthony Simcoe (D'argo from Farscape, with David Wenham (Faramir) as an acceptable second.
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”
-George Steiner
