Sir Ben Kingsley was knighted in 2002 by Queen Elizabeth II, née Elizabeth Alexandra Mary (1926-2022).

Grazie, cara Theodosia!
ReplyDeleteEs un buen actor. Te mando un beso y te deseo una buena semana.
ReplyDeleteMy dear friend Theodosia,
ReplyDeleteBen Kingsley is talented, but he lacks charisma. He’s the type of actor who shines when the plot is good, but when the script doesn’t help, his presence ends up becoming tiresome.
Kisses!!!
De su vida no conocía nada, de sus peliculas las que he visto me han gustado, me parece un buen actor. Un abrazo
ReplyDeleteTheda obrigada por compartilhar mais do ator, desejo uma ótima semana bjs.
ReplyDeleteUm grande ator, gostei dele nos filmes que vi.
ReplyDeleteBoa semana minha amiga.
Um abraço.
Bom dia, Theda
ReplyDeleteObrigada por compartilhar a vida dele. Um forte abraço.
Hay actores que quedan unidos para siempre a un personaje, y para mí Ben Kingsley es uno de ellos. Su interpretación de Gandhi fue tan magnífica que cuesta separar al actor del personaje cuando uno recuerda la película. Besos
ReplyDeleteUn actor buenísimo, sé de sus actuaciones, pero poco sabía de su vida privada, aunque hace poco pude ver a su hijo Ferdinand en la serie Silo.
ReplyDeleteBesos.
Cuando leí el nombre creí recordar alguna película en la que actuó y esas fotos en la que no se ve el pelo junto al dato en que fue galardonado en los mayores premios cinematográficos por su interpretación principal en la película "Gandhi " me lo corroboro. Que gran película y no lo digo solo por su extensión.
ReplyDeleteSaludos.
ReplyDeleteA wonderful actor. I love so many of the films he’s in.
Have a lovely week.
Kisses
Adoro esse ator desde quando ele interpreto o Ghandhi e , desde então, acompanho a carreira dele com muita curiosidade!! Ele também atuou em uma série do Tutankmon, se não me engano.
