I say:-

I first saw Kenneth Branagh when he was a 23 year old playing Henry 
Vth at Stratford; he was mersmerising. Quite simply, he transformed 
my view of boring old William Shakespeare. I went from hating the 
play I was forced to do for O'Level to being able to remember large 
chunks of his speeches off by heart. ||I can't think of many other 
actors who would be capable of creating that kind of impression. I 
know that he's been almost vilified in the past for some of his 
more "luvvie" acting, but I've no doubt that he'll be able to 
convince me in his role as Lockhart.
