BC's audition for Frankestein

Thanks that it's great.

It's interesting how people assume he is not a very physical actor just because he has played a good number of intellectuals. He is one of the most physical actors out there nowadays. It's most clear in the very early Hawking, Frankenstein and the BHS footage of The Hobbit movies but we can see it also in a subtle way in Sherlock, Parade's End and practically all his movies.

I remember a Spanish young critic comparing and describing acting styles saying Tom Hardy is a physical actor meanwhile BC is an intellectual one and I thought "no, Hardy is an actor who plays very macho kind of characters and BC tend to play intellectuals but the description of the characters has nothing to do with their acting styles!"

Also I remember at least two acting students raving about BC's talents as a physical actor on Twitter. One of them was amazed after he saw a recording of his creature in Frankenstein and the other was talking in general about him. It's always nice to read those but I guess it's clear how is always people who look for details the ones who go beyond the simple description of a character to judge something.  

I find it interesting that what he did in the audition was almost what they went for on the play, according to what I read.
