I would have titled this "Full length films of varying quality featuring Jeremy Brett..." but that's a bit long, eh?
Some time ago I began uploading some Sherlock Holmes audiobooks read by Edward Hardwicke <3 on youtube (which maybe I'll share in a different post). When I got my hands on some rare-ish Jeremy films, I added them, too. There's nothing quite like that feeling when you're not expecting to find some old movie he was in, and then seeing it right there on the sidebar! :O
The first thing I added was the 1966-7 BBC series of "The Three Musketeers" in which Jeremy plays d'Artagnan. It consists of 10 episodes, all about 25 minutes long and also starring Brian Blessed, Jeremy Young, and Gary Watson.don't ask about the name of the first episode unless you want to hear what a pain it was to upload that episode from dvd *insert "one does not simply" meme here*
Fun fact: This series was directed by Peter Hammond, who directed some of the later Granada Holmes episodes.
Everybody wears a mullet wig.
Jeremy was in a number of BBC Play of the Month productions and I've uploaded two of them--both adaptations of Oscar Wilde's works--to my channel. Both were already available on youtube in a bit fuzzier quality. The first is "An Ideal Husband" (1969) and tbh I get sick of looking at his perfect face framed by his perfectly trimmed sideburns, don't you? Look at him ahhhh
....are you still here? ;) And the second BBC Play of the Month I added was "The Picture of Dorian Gray" (1976). OMG, it's nearly perfect and I won't even go into it, okay, just know that Jeremy as Basil Hallward breaks my heart. And Peter Firth plays Dorian and John Gielgud plays Lord Henry Wotton. Guh!Better add an image to be fair.
You'll get used to the moustache. I promise. You might forget that this is Jeremy.
Then there are three films that I subscribed to a streaming service for and then cancelled. XD You won't tell, will you? The quality of these three isn't great because the streams were a bit patchy. I went a little nuts and recorded them with and without captions. Hey, I was sick in bed for a week and that was a good use of my time! The first is "The Barretts of Wimpole Street" (1982) and it's a play in which Jeremy plays Robert Browning, opposite Jane Lapotaire as Elizabeth Barrett. Oh, man...um, the page just reloaded and it's in html editor now and it won't let me switch back to rich text and tbh I'm not up for doing the rest of this in html atm...I'll have to continue in a further post. :/ But! I hope you check out some of Jeremy's older stuff mentioned here--it's already a lot to work with. :) Cheers!
