creamy jeeves


yeah, i admit it... last night, for 'old time's sake,' i threw in one of my jeeves and wooster dvds and couldn't help taking a couple of shots. the film stock on that series is very 'hit and miss,' as they used several directors and photographers and all that. but one thing is inarguable: stephen fry never looked better. here's a shot i snagged last night of the always-crafty jeeves, smirking. i think he's trying to get his master, bertie wooster, out of jail for something. those wodehouse plots are all so similar its almost as predictable as some upper-crust english 'scooby-doo.' like, in every episode, about four of the same constant elements converge to knit up the zany plot neatly, and always in favor of the protagonists. (man, am i in 'lit class' or something?) still, i was lucky to get this minty, dreamy, creamy shot of stephen-as-jeeves. he was on the screen for less than like, four and a half seconds, making that face. and i tricked the contrast, of course. it enlarges quite nicely.
