This stunning portrait of Jeremy Brett taken in 1991 has finally appeared on the Internet without a massive watermark obscuring his beautiful face. Taken Oct. 21, 1991, by photographer Bob Galbreath at the Beverly Hills Hotel, for AP newsfeatures. I have been waiting my whole Granada life for this portrait to appear. It is without question in my top 3 favorites.
And BOOM there’s a whole new generation of Granada fans posting dear wonderful Jeremy all over Tumblr. I am SO HAPPY that I could help get him out there for you.
If you want to visit the Falk Archive facebook page, I post there almost daily. But I have a reason to jump back onto Tumblr…I leave for a while and come back surprised <3 <3 <3
Tried to work on restoring some of the Falk Archive photos (with the blessing of double-zero-agent-alison), and this is the result. Not the greatest, but there’s only so much you can do with grainy, over-exposed photos. And something went wonky with the one on top, not sure what. Anyway, at least they’re a bit more vibrant!
Thank you for doing this (I just got back on Tumblr after a hiatus, lol!)
“What he gets superbly well is the sheer weirdness and oddness of Holmes. Holmes in the stories is a person very, very different, and eccentric, and strange, and neurotic… and Brett captures that far better than any other actor I’ve ever seen.”- Nick Rennison
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JEREMY BRETT! (3 November 1933 – 12 September 1995).
Ms Falk sharing a hearty laugh and happy memories at Clapham Common bandstand, with Mr. David Stuart Davies and Mr. David Burke. Autographs for KFA from Barbara Wilshere (”The Solitary Cyclist”) and David Burke.
A few weeks ago, the San Francisco Chronicle ran a story about actors who portrayed Holmes. And it never mentioned Jeremy Brett. Outraged Jeremy fans in Northern California complained about the slight. This is from yesterday’s paper. Bravo!
The inimitable and wonderful David Burke in his lawnchair on Clapham Common just over an hour ago for the commencement of Jeremy’s memorial presentation at the Clapham Common bandstand. Photo by KFA, half of which is in London right now. :)
Jeremy Brett as Sherlock Holmes. I’m back watching this with my small people. Love how Holmes enjoys Watson being impressed with his deductions with these little smiles. ^_^
