Yeah, the only thing I'm taking away from this one myself is Aisha Harris says you can't just stop being a hitman.
voice-verified
That's what I've learned so far from our fall guideslash autumn guide.
voice-verified
Okay, so you saw that in Toronto at the Film Festival.
voice-verified
You also saw in Toronto at the Film Festival my first pick, even though I have not seen it yet.
voice-verified
My first pick is Elsinore.
voice-verified
This is a film in which Andrew Scott, one of my personal favorite actors, plays the Scottish actor Ian Charleston.
voice-verified
I suspect most Americans, if they know Charlton,
voice-verified
Would know him as one of the leads of Chariots of Fire.
voice-verified
Elsinore is about the last chapter of his life in which he threw himself into playing Hamlet while he was dying of AIDS.
voice-verified
And on the one hand, I will admit there is part of me that gets a little bit weary of the obsession with Hamlet.
voice-verified
It's having a moment.
voice-verified
Doing Hamlet, Productions of Hamlet, how Hamlet came to be.
voice-verified
But of course, for a bunch of reasons, it is to me a very intriguing idea that Charleston was wrestling with this particular role while also thinking
voice-verified
not only about mortality, which is very much what Hamlet is about, but also identity since he was gay, but he was not out, certainly not an unusual decision in nineteen eighty nine when this happened.
voice-verified
But mostly I just have a huge amount of trust in Andrew Scott.
voice-verified
Absolutely.
voice-verified
I have found so riveting in so many things and so interesting in so many things.
voice-verified
He's just an actor that I get so much out of watching.
voice-verified
And the idea of him digging into this story is enough to make me very excited to see it.
voice-verified
despite any Hamlet fatigue.
