Here's some ginger for you

Okay, I've already referenced him in two other posts, so I figured I needed to just take the bull by the horns and just write about him. Him who? Him Damian Lewis, ginger-haired british actor who I'd like to think I discovered, but, per the usual, I'm late to the game.

First saw him as the completely evil Soames in the FORSYTHE SAGA and I was hooked, despite the fact that his character did all sorts of despicable things to his wife and family. Then it was BAND OF BROTHERS, and then KEANE. He does a wicked good american accent and his choice of diverse material and his ability to play all of these different characters has completely blown me away. Can't wait to see him in more good stuff. He also does quite a bit of theater.

(Note: No, I have not seen the Stephen King movie he did, which looked terrible, and I saw part of AN UNFINISHED LIFE on the airplane, which seemed to be about a bear, Robert Redford releasing the bear from captivity, Jennifer Lopez pretending to be a waitress, and the bear coming to visit Morgan Freeman. Damian Lewis was in there somewhere. I did, embarrassingly, watch him compete in a celebrity Football (translate - soccer) tournament in the U.K. while I was there. He was on Robbie Williams' team if that gives you any indication of the type of tourney it was.)

Anyway, he's one to watch - and if you haven't seen him, look out. He's so magnetic.
