David Thewlis Is 50
Actor David Thewlis turns 50 today. If you have somehow never seen Naked I envy you the overwhelming sensation of "wow" you are about to experience as you rush to address this glaring deficiency in your viewing history.









The only cool thing about me is I went to the Virgin megastore at midnight to buy the Criterion edition of Naked when it came out.
Virtually everyone, at some time in their life, has gone on a date and made a really, really poor choice of what movie to see.
"Naked" was mine.
@Gef the Talking Mongoose – Husbands and Wives. What was I thinking?!?
@Gef the Talking Mongoose Mine was "Storytelling."
@Gef the Talking Mongoose City Slickers 2: The Legend of Curly's Gold.
@Gef the Talking Mongoose My dad took my mother to see Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia.
Oh, man, "Naked" is both a great, great movie and a movie I will happily never rewatch.
@Jinxie Though I have to admit that I developed an odd sort of crush on Thewlis after seeing it.
@Jinxie Oh, god, I did too.
Such mind-bendingly great movie. (Also great, someone got a quote from his mom when, I think, that Rimbaud movie came out: "Oh there's goes David, showing his bum again.")
