Kirk MinihaneHOST
Oh, Brad Pitt, 12 Monkeys, yeah.
Kirk MinihaneHOST
And Tim Roth, Rob Roy.
Kirk MinihaneHOST
So I think there was, I remember as a, you know, being younger at that point, being even more into it than I am now, there was kind of a real buzz for Bacon because he'd been nominated for the SAG, which is usually a pretty good precursor and he won the Critics' Choice.
Kirk MinihaneHOST
So people thought, well, he might finally get an Oscar nomination.
NickHOST
Is it Braveheart at some point?
LisaHOST
Yeah, with Rob Roy?
NickHOST
Yeah.
LisaHOST
I like Rob Roy.
LisaHOST
I've still never seen Braveheart.
NickHOST
I haven't seen Rob Roy in ages, but I've definitely seen Braveheart a
LisaHOST
lot.
LisaHOST
I watched Rob Roy when I was going through a phase of watching as many Tim Roth films as I could get my hand on.
ScottHOST
It's a beautiful, beautiful film, 1999.
ScottHOST
Rob Roy.
ScottHOST
So if there's a comparison to be drawn, I think that it's more with Rob Roy.
ScottHOST
And Rob Roy came out the same year as Braveheart, but really didn't do much because Braveheart was such a massive hit.
ScottHOST
Rob Roy is a beautiful film.
ScottHOST
Really great acting.
ScottHOST
You got Tim Roth, you got Liam Neeson, and a bunch of other people.
Rich ShertenliebHOST
That, that's not bad.
Rich ShertenliebHOST
I, you know what? There was a movie that came out around the same time as Braveheart that didn't get enough, the same pop because Braveheart was out, but if you get a chance, a great movie is Liam Neeson in a movie called Rob Roy.
Ted JohnsonHOST
Oh.
Rich ShertenliebHOST
It's like-
Rich ShertenliebHOST
Without question.
Ken LairdHOST
That's three movies I got on my list now.
Ken LairdHOST
Apocalypto, Rob Roy, and Legend I gotta watch.
Ted JohnsonHOST
Yep.
Rich ShertenliebHOST
I, you know what? There was a movie that came out around the same time as Braveheart that didn't get enough, the same pop because Braveheart was out.
Rich ShertenliebHOST
But if you get a chance, a great movie is Liam Neeson in a movie called Rob Roy.
Ted JohnsonHOST
Oh.
Rich ShertenliebHOST
It's like-
Rich ShertenliebHOST
... action movies, more underrated action movies of all time, without question.
Ken LairdHOST
That's three movies I got on my list now.
Ken LairdHOST
Apocalypto, Rob Roy, and Legend I gotta watch.
Ted JohnsonHOST
Yep.
William BibbianiHOST
That's a good one.
Whitney SeiboldHOST
Uh, Archibald Cunningham, the character played by, uh, Tim Roth in Rob Roy.
William BibbianiHOST
Oh, fuck.
William BibbianiHOST
[laughs]
William BibbianiHOST
Yeah.
William BibbianiHOST
And, like, you're watching it and it's like, okay, Pulp Fiction, I know that movie.
William BibbianiHOST
And then Tim Roth is nominated for Rob Roy, and it's like, who the fuck is...
William BibbianiHOST
What the fuck is Rob Roy?
AndyHOST
Oh, was it? Stop, because I know this is one of your favourite things.
DaveHOST
Rob Roy? Oh, no, but now you mention it, yeah.
AndyHOST
Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
AndyHOST
Very
AndyHOST
Yeah.
DaveHOST
And it reminded me of that.
DaveHOST
But yeah, there's a bit in Rob Roy where Liam Neeson cuts Tim Roth in half in a very similar fashion.
AndyHOST
I guess there's Terminator 2 as well, isn't there? There's a bit like that in Terminator 2.
Robert LambHOST
So Keir was a, an actor of stage, screen, and TV with British film and TV credits going back to the, back to around 1950, I believe.
Robert LambHOST
Uh, his credits include A Night to Remember, which we already mentioned, 1963's Cleopatra, and much later in his, uh, career, 1995's Rob Roy, alongside numerous Hammer pictures.
Robert LambHOST
Uh, this is the only time he played Quatermass, but his other Hammer credits are Pirates of Blood River from '62, Dracula, Prince of Darkness from '66, The Viking Queen '67, Zeppelin from '71, and Blood from the Mummy's Tomb in '71.
Joe McCormickHOST
I think Keir is quite good in this role.

Kirk MinahanHOST
I'll look it up.
Kirk MinahanHOST
So you had, oh, Brad Pitt, 12 Monkeys, yeah, and Tim Roth, Rob Roy.
Kirk MinahanHOST
So I think there was-- I remember as a, [clears throat] you know, being younger at that point, being in- even more into it than I am now.
