Hey, everyone. ”Moriarty” here.

Okay, this one just freaks me out. Martin Freeman strikes me as a very good actor. So far, THE OFFICE is really where I best know him from, but I quite liked his work in HITCHHIKER’S GUIDE and BREAKING & ENTERING as well. I think he could be someone huge and successful.

That’s why I’m fascinated to see him take an unexpected left turn like this. Peter Greenaway? Mr. PILLOW BOOK? Mr. COOK THE THIEF HIS WIFE & HER LOVER? Is this really the DROWNING BY NUMBERS guy? Making a Rembrandt conspiracy film starring Martin Freeman?

I’m sooooooooo seeing this.

A little promotional trailer for Greenaway's new picture on Rembrandt titled Nightwatching is up. It looks promising. Fantastic bits of the score at the end. Interestingly enough, the composer info is being kept a bit of a secret. Some rumors are it is Nyman. Great news if it is. Now if we could just see this film at the Paramount. |||||| K

An image of Rembrandt's Night Watch at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. You can get a nice sense of the actual size of this piece.
