Just watched a film with Anthony Hopkins called "fracture" and I certainly can say that was one of the best fucking movies I've seen Hollywood produce after 2001 (after 9/11 that is, when the bloody atmosphere changed).
Hopkins also played in Hannibal, so, I'd put him on my favorites list. Meryl Streep also is good.
Although I'd say I'd turn gay for Mitch Hewer after watching Skins. I assume you guys in England have seen it or heard about it?
