ベネディクト・カンバーバッチがシャーロックのやつね。
うちのテレビはケーブルテレビも加入してないし、アンテナ受信もできないので普通のテレビでは見れないんだけど、唯一加入しているストリーミングサービスにとうとう「シャーロック」第３シーズンが登場で、やっと見れる～。
ベネディクト・カンバーバッチは、最初はどこがいい男なの？！と思ったけど、見れば見るほど味のある顔してるわ。雰囲気がいいし。お坊ちゃまっぽそうなとことか。頭よさそげなとことか。
Sherlock is back. On Netflix. Season 3. Yey.
One sad thing about Sherlock is that, well, with my limited English ability, it can be quite hard to understand what he's saying in his lightening fast and long speech. As much as I love the sound of British English, it still proves to be difficult for me to distinguish the words when spoken so fast without wide opening of the mouth like American people do. I can "get" what's going on, but I miss the important plot detail.
By the way, after watching the previous seasons of Sherlock, I actually read Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's actual Sherlock stories (The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes). Sherlock in the book so well matches with Cumberbatch's Sherlock and it was quite pleasurable to read those short stories of Sherlock Holmes imagining Cumberbatch in my head as Sherlock.
Thoughts on Cumberbatch. He is not a traditional handsome man. He has, in a way, Harry Potter's Lord Voldemort like paleness and slitheriness, which can be construed as ugly. But what is it that makes him look so good-looking and charming despite his non-traditional handsomeness? Is it intelligence? Honesty? Is it the posture or the manner that makes him look borderline arrogant but which captivates people because of that vulnerability that hides behind it? Charisma? Anyway, Cumberbatch's Sherlock is done superbly.
So, I just watched the Episode 1 of the Season 3, but then found out that there was actually a mini-episode that act as a prequal to the Season 3 (about Anderson), so I guess I want to watch that first before moving on to the Episode 2.
