Talking in the Library Series 2 - Simon Callow

Simon Callow is an eloquent, ebullient combination of screen star, stage actor and writer. In Four Weddings and a Funeral and Shakespeare in Love he showed how a character role could dominate the big screen. In the theatre, his achievements include one-man shows (notably his portrait of Dickens) in which he dominates the stage all on his own. His biographical writings on Orson Welles and Charles Laughton are worthy of their protean subjects. Protean himself, in this interview he unveils yet another of his careers, as a film director.

    I met Simon on the Ponte Vecchio in Florence about 5 years ago. Had one of those star struck moments where I wanted him to just keep talking to hear more of that voice but was too nervous to say anything. I felt stupid but he was very gracious.

    I knew of Clive James, but not on video. He is a charm, a real gem.
