Ralph Fiennes

This week we talk about the films of Ralph Fiennes. We haven't seen all his movies, but we have seen a goodly number. If you're afraid of the sneaky and nefarious SPOILER, you probably ought to be cautious since we fear it not.

16:03 The Avengers (1998) Bob will be wrong a few seconds later about Fiennes being the villain (it's Sean Connery); not only that, Fiennes plays the hero, which would have been a good thing to have looked up before having the rest of this conversation. Do your homework, kids!

The hosts are ridiculously uninformed.

The lack of research is stunning. Mispronounced names, incorrectly identified actors, no knowledge of the background of these films is hugely disappointing.
