Actor of the Week

KIFF is still going on. I'll recap everything at the end of the week. However, sneak preview. Last night, I saw Nowhere Boy. It's the story of John Lennon. It take place in John's teen years up until he leaves for German and the rest is Beatles history. It's just a fascinating story and the movie is superb. One of the reasons it's so good is the young actor who plays John Lennon. His name is Aaron Johnson. And, if you don't know who he is now, you'll learn and you should love him, cause I do. Well, I'm also in love with him, but you don't have to be. Just like him. Aaron Johnson, who I found out looks a lot older than he is. I thought he was in his mid twenties, turns out I'm almost a year older than him. Good new for me. ha ha. Like I said earlier, he plays John Lennon in Nowhere Boy, but he also had a huge break this year with the smash hit Kick-Ass. He had the lead role opposite Christopher Mintz-Plasse (McLovin). Please don't hate me, but I haven't seen Kick-Ass yet, but I promise you that by the end of this week I will have seen it. I got it for my birhday and I haven't had time to watch it yet, but now that I am in an Aaron Johnson phase, I will watch it. Enough rambling. He's also been in some smaller films like The Greatest, Angus Thongs and Perfect Snogging (yes, that's a movie) The Illusionist, Shanghai Kinghts, Temple Grandin, and Dummy. Lood for him in Kick-Ass 2: Balls to Wall, The Phone and Chatroom. Also, see Nowhere Boy. If you love The Beatles you'll really appreciate it.
