In the News (Thu 16 Feb 12)

  
  BBC SPORT | SPORTS TALK | Is Redgrave Britain's greatest sportsman?
Redgrave competes in an elitist minority sport that is dominated by Oxbridge and public school old boys.
Before Redgrave got his award he was a truly great sportsman, and I think after his speech he proved he was worthy of the award as he showed a truly great personality with his tribute to Matthew Pinsent.
Redgrave is the best rower that Britain has ever produced, but you can't say that he's the best sportsman we have ever produced as there are too many sports to say this, all of which differ greatly in terms of what is required in terms of talent, both physically and mentally.

I was waiting for the author to mention "Second Serve" - and the fact that he didn't proves that he must not have seen this movie.
It would be fully 15 years since it was shown here on TV, but I remember how superb Vanessa Redgrave is in the lead role (true to form - she is one of my all-time favourite actors).
I believe that Renee Richards personal strength and public honesty was the first step in achieving this statement of equity.

In the Footsteps of Churchill by Richard Holmes
The snag is that its restriction to TV movie format, a mere 90 minutes, excludes a lot of historical context that ought not to have been left out.
Seeing Churchill's adoration of his wife (Vanessa Redgrave) or the family woes troubling Ralph Wigram (Linus Roache) is all very emotionally dramatic, but it uses precious screen time that might have been better devoted to highlighting the political situation abroad, or indeed the monarchy's situation at home.

After entering the Royal Academy as a student in 1826, Redgrave was elected a Fellow in 1851.
He was among the first British painters to turn to realistic social subjects in the 1840s; among these are The Emigrant's Last Sight of Home with a family bidding farewell to the English countryside, Going Into Service, The Seamtress, and The Poor Teacher.
Susan Casteras and Ronald Parkinson edited a collection of essays entitled Richard Redgrave 1804-1888 (Yale University Press, 1988) to accompany an exhibition (1988) of Redgrave's works at the Victoria and Albert Museum and the Yale Center for British Art.

 Peter Pan (2003) London Movie Review
The film is set in Victorian London (also lovingly designed) and stars Rachel Hurd-Wood as Wendy Darling, a slightly precocious middle-class child who loves to enthrall her little brothers (Freddie Popplewell and Harry Newell) with tales of pirates and distant lands.
The young leads are extremely good, as is Jason Isaacs, who pretty much steals the film and is convincing both as timid bank clerk and as suitably hiss-worthy pantomime villain.
Also rather wonderful is Ludivine Sagnier as Tinkerbell — she has no dialogue, instead delivering a comic performance that wouldn’t be out of place in a silent movie, combining exaggerated facial expressions and hyper-active speed, courtesy of some brilliant effects-work and lighting.

"Mythical" King Arthur (Richard Harris) is a self-proclaimed "bachelor," until his pre-arranged married to Lady Guinevere (Vanessa Redgrave).
Miscast as Arthur, Richard Harris (an excellent actor in his own right) fails to convince us that he's the "once and future king," and Vanessa Redgrave is equally unconvincing as Guenivere, although, personality-wise, she perhaps is closer in reality!

 The Etching Club of London: A Taste for Painters' Etchings
It was in that year that the Etching Club of London formed and the mode of illustration was thrust back into "modern" culture as a vital contemporary art form.
The club embodied such esteemed pencil-pushers as Victorian painters Richard Redgrave and Charles West Cope and before the group called it quits in 1885, artists William Holman Hunt and Samuel Palmer were also participants.
In all, the group published 10 volumes of original etchings, many of which illustrated literary works.
