Happy 43rd Birthday to Hugh Dancy!

They worked together first in the Tom Hooper directed HBO film Elizabeth I. in 2005. 

Eddie played Southampton as having a crush on Hugh Dancy's Earl of Essex. Later in 

Savage Grace Hugh played Barbara's gay friend Sam Green, who became Tony's lover 

and even had a three-way with Tony (Eddie Redmayne) and Barbara (Julianne Moore). 

 Happy Birthday Hugh Dancy!

"What I found kind of weird the first time I kissed a guy is that it's 

remarkably similar to kissing a girl - only slightly hairier. It was 

a bit awkward in Savage Grace since Hugh Dancy is a mate..." 

(Eddie in Angeleno Magazine June 2008 - my post here)

July 2007 Rome - Valentino 45 Years Anniversary

Eddie Redmayne attended the celebrations with Tara Hacking (his girlfriend at the time).

I found them in a video about the opening of the exhibition ‘Valentino a Roma: 45 Years of 

Style’ at the Ara Pacis in Rome on Friday 6th July 2007. They had a chat with Claire Danes 

and Hugh Dancy ... With around 300 garments and rare archive material, the exhibition was 

a retrospective that celebrated Valentino’s 45 years of creativity.

Let's play spot them in the red carpet video here
(Eddie and Tara in the background at 3:21)

Mayor Walter Veltroni gave his full support to Valentino's celebrations, permitting the
use of historic venues such as the Santo Spirito in Sassia, founded in 727 as a refuge
centre for pilgrims to the nearby tomb of the apostle Peter, and the Galleria Borghese.
Veltroni, who in fashion parlance is planning a comeback for the Eternal City, is hoping
that the glamour of the weekend will rub off. A retrospective exhibition of Valentino's
designs, which opened at the Ara Pacis museum in Rome on Friday, served to illustrate
the timelessness of his designs: almost all of the dresses would work on a red carpet
today. The retrospective, featuring the best gowns from almost half a century, was a
hard act to follow, but the presentation of Valentino's latest collection on Saturday
provided yet more examples of the designer's best tricks: the precise nip of a waisted
jacket, the opulence of a dress rustling with jet beads and trimmed with ostrich feathers.
A gala ball in the Galleria Borghese followed, beginning with a ballgown-clad
passeggiata beneath the Caravaggios, and culminating in a dinner for 1,000 guests.

Happy Birthday Hugh!

Hugh Dancy Eddie Redmayne's friend and co-star today celebrates his 39th Birthday. There are a lot of good pictures and even videos about them in my posts about their films Savage Grace and Elizabeth I. and in the one I made about Hugh and Eddie earlier, but there are many of them I didn't posted yet, so here are a few in honor of the celebrated person.

The photo to the left (cropped) is from the photoshoot by Chris Floyd on 18th December 2008 made for the article 'Britain's Got Talent' published in the Sunday Times 2009 January Issue (x).  click here for the article

Interview: Eddie Redmayne Talks Live-Singing, Skinny-Dipping, Name-Calling
...The threesome with Hugh & Julianne... there's a moment in it. You always think with those sorts of scene 'How do actors do it?' The answer is it's as awkward as if you were to do it. There's a moment at the end of the scene where Tom Kalin keeps the camera on top of us and we all sort of all kiss each other and burst into hysterics. That was completely natural hysteria "What just happened?!?"[Laughter]...

‘Interview’ Magazine March 2008 Interview by Christopher Bailey
CB: ...I want you to tell me about Savage Grace: Is that the one where you play Julianne Moore’s gay son?
ER: Exactly.
CB: And is that the one with Hugh?
ER: That is the one with Hugh Dancy.
CB: And you snog the Dancy?
ER: I get to snog the Dancy. [Bailey laughs] ....
...We did this Helen Mirren Elizabeth I movie together...
... I had auditioned to play his sidekick in that film–the Earl of Southampton, who was sort of pauncy, indulgent,
and who kind of had a crush on the Earl of Essex...
