Ha! I had the same WHO IS THAT reaction about 10 minutes into Van Gogh: PWW. I’d never seen him before (well, I did see Atonement, was not impressed overall but I did remember that horribly creepy guy, lol). I moved off my chair to get about a foot from that poor, tortured soul on the screen and that’s how I was Cumberbatched. Love at first (well, second) sight. 😍 His charisma just burns straight through the camera lens.
Agree about Amazing Grace. Important topic, bit staid, wandering, and pompous, Albert Finney was touching, but Ben’s absolutely electric. (Not to mention the period clothing and the stockings on those well formed calves! Did I mention the stockings?) 🤤
I do love it when he steals the show, as he also did in Starter for 10, another perfectly realized character.

I actually don’t remember when I saw him first but I had the same reaction to him when I saw him in Amazing Grace, Starter For Ten and Hawking. I also think those three are very different performances and he is completely different in each of those roles! I was amazed when I discovered it was the same actor!
