Venus

Peter O'Toole is one of the most endearing actors I have ever watched. Funny, crass, honest, sexy, the man owns the movie screen. In Venus, he plays a British actor who befriends a young girl. The film is a funny, poignant story of his relationships, and reflects on his life.

I truly enjoy Peter O'Toole as well. It is unfortunate that he has never won an Oscar. I don't know if I will see Venus or not as the preview I saw of it at The Cable Car did not look all that appealing.

I prefer movies of older women seeking younger men :)

Venus will be a good rental for people who like Peter O'Toole, Abe. The trailer for this film really doesn't do it justice. It's a good story of lifelong relationships.
