I had to look up McKellen on IMDB to find out the character's name, 
but I recalled the gist--he's the BAD guy.  (Hm, I've never exactly 
been in favor of chopping people's heads off, but how did the 
republicans [small r] come to be the bad guys?  I should have my 
democratic [small d] credentials revoked.)  Says here his name is 
Chauvelin.  

Enjoy your movie!
