Yes, we missed out on everything, Daniel was trying to do with getting his face in front of the cameras as much as possible - the reason was, that they didn´t need to cut the action all that muchMiss-Meow wrote: I'm with you GG.

The top notch acting in the Weisz/Craig/Spall 'Betrayal' is emotionally true, often v funny and its beautifully staged with filmic qualities..

He certainly is extremely light on his feet, and very sure footed too.bumblebee wrote:Such a sleek leopard.
Most of us would look where we were going if jumping down 3 or 4 large steps at the run....he just leaps, as you say, like a leopard.
I love the one I posted a couple back where the camera caught him in mid-air, half-way onto the roof of the car in QoS. Talk about "caught in flight"!
That kind of grace one cannot learn, a person has to be born with it, I think.

The Panther
His vision, from the constantly passing bars,
has grown so weary that it cannot hold
anything else. It seems to him there are
a thousand bars; and behind the bars, no world.
As he paces in cramped circles, over and over,
the movement of his powerful soft strides
is like a ritual dance around a center
in which a mighty will stands paralyzed.
Only at times, the curtain of the pupils
lifts, quietly--. An image enters in,
rushes down through the tensed, arrested muscles,
plunges into the heart and is gone.
Rainer Maria Rilke
