The "Scars" docu-drama with Jason Isaacs that I pimped yesterday was AMAZING.  What a talent that man is, what a bloody talent.  It was based on five interviews with a real person who confessed his own violent past and Isaacs just played the part - but wow.  Convincing, compelling, terrifying, tragic, I could NOT take my eyes off him.

And there was even slash.  He spoke of being raped in prison, in a shower - gave some titillating details (I know, not nice, really, but I'm 12) about being pinned down, and in the end he pulled the guy's eye out with his bare hands to prevent it.

It was one of the best performances I've seen anyone give, let alone Jason.  Better even (imo) than Heath Ledger.  And no, it's not just because it was Jason.  He was unrecognisable as the debonair sneering aristocrat I'm under.

If you can get hold of a copy - DO IT.
