Favorite Actor Monday


Michel Piccoli will class up your film. He's been in movies since 1945, and will never stop until he's killed by death. He was a very iconic and cool actor as a younger man, and has matured into a performer of great depth and subtlety. He probably knows the best place to get a drink and a decent haircut in every city on the globe. I write like this when I have too many margaritas.
