Outlandish regiment
Article Abstract:
Actor John Sessions, who is currently staging a one-man show at the Royal Academy entitled 'Leighton Live,' which deals with the life and times of eminent Victorian Lord Leighton, found it difficult to gain inspiration for the central character. However, he did not have difficulties with the supporting characters, all of whom he impersonates. These include Holman Hunt, Delacroix and Thomas Carlyle. One of the main attractions of the show is the recognition of real-life counterparts in these historical figures.

Article Abstract:
Becoming a successful film actor has taken a great deal of hard work, according to Dev Anand, who has been one of the leading Indian film actors since the 1940s. He is most well known for the 1965 film 'Guide,' which was an international co-production made in English and Hindi. He became increasingly involved in directing from the late 1960s, and since then has directed 14 films.
