For those of you who don’t know much about Izzard, check out Kevin Pollack’s chat show interview with him (warning: it’s two-and-a-half hours long). The man is actually quite amazing. A maniac, but amazing.
Yes, embed works. Loved it!
Have you seen Izzy filter US action movies through Merchant Ivory type genre? Brilliant.
One of my favorites – thanks for reminding me! Somewhere on YouTube there’s an animated version of this (maybe Lego-ized, even?) and it’s a hoot, too.
I’ll have to check out the interview.
Yes, I’ve seen it, and it’s cute, but I think I prefer watching him do the different characters. The person working at the canteen is really grounded, which makes it quite funny to me.
Yeah, I saw that bit on YouTube too. Perhaps I should do a regular Izzard feature here….
