#mark-gatiss — Public Fediverse posts

Finished watching series 2 of #Bookish this evening, and it's just such a great little crime drama. Wonderful characters, great relationships, a lavender marriage, excellent writing (and acting, of course) from Mark Gatiss. Recommended viewing.

My husband discovered the 'cozy' British TV mystery, "BOOKISH," because one of his idols, Mark Gatiss, wrote it and stars in it. Zack soon became bored with the mystery genre pacing, but I've found a new favorite! #markgatiss #bookish #books #sellingbooks #bookselling #bookseller #vintage #period #periodpiece #1940s #england #britain #britainafterthewar #worldwartwo #worldwarII #wwII #devotedcouple #romance #mystery #excitement #interesting #anglophile #anglophilia #london

Mark Gatiss Drama ‘Bookish’ Returning For Third Chapter & Festive Special

Es gibt Filme, die nicht nur unsere Sinne berühren, sondern unsere Wahrnehmung herausfordern. Florian Zeller nimmt uns mit in eine Welt, in der die Realität zerbricht, die Zeit sich auflöst und das eigene Ich sich langsam verliert. Was mich dabei so tief bewegt hat, ist nicht nur die erzählerische Präzision, sondern auch der stille, aber überaus politische Kommentar, der sich unter der Oberfläche verbirgt.. Mit Anthony Hopkins und Olivia Colman. (ARD, Wh.)

Mark Gatiss is getting attention for a quote that challenges a long-held cultural comfort: the idea that fascism was somehow incompatible with British identity.

Benedict Cumberbatch, Martin Freeman – „Sherlock“ (Serie, 2010-2017)

Dieses Comeback von Sherlock Holmes war ja nicht einfach nur ein modernes Update einer alten Kultfigur, sondern auch ein Spiegel der britischen Gegenwart. Cumberbatch als hochverdichtete Version eines Einzelgängers. Überlegen. Cool. Unbeirrbar. Die Obsession über das unnahbare Genie zeigt aber auch eine Kultur, die Gefühle misstrauisch beäugt und Nähe nur dann zulässt, wenn sie sich sofort wieder weg‑ironisieren lässt. Trotzdem – oder gerade deshalb – ein Meilenstein europäischer TV-Produktionen und ein kulturelles Phänomen ganz für sich selbst. (ARD, Wh.)

Deborah Lipstadts Plädoyer für die Wahrheit – „Verleugnung“ (2016)

Vier Jahre, von 1996 bis 2000, dauerte der Verleumdungsprozess, den der britische Historiker und Holocaustleugner David Irving gegen die amerikanische Professorin Deborah E. Lipstadt angezettelt hatte. Heraus kam ein denkwürdiger Sieg für Meinungsfreiheit und Gerechtigkeit kontra Geschichtsfälschung und Fanatismus. (ARD, WH)

Binge-watched the entire first series of #Bookish tonight. Didn't know anything about it before starting other than it was created by and starred Mark Gatiss and, really, what else do you need to know? Complex characters, complex relationships, complex mysteries. Great stuff.
