Michael Sheen, Anna Friel, and Gerard Butler in Timeline
Timeline is a film I think is sorely underrated. It wasn't the most groundbreaking film but for what it was trying to be, an adventure film, I think it accomplished that wonderfully. Granted, I am a bit biased as I absolutely love the concept and plot but I thought the film was great as was the novel (which I read several months after).
However, this film means a bit more to me for other reasons. The fact that three of my favourite performers are in this and I saw the film before falling in love with any of them. I saw the trailer for it, thought it looked like my kind of film, and went in knowing not much else.
• Gerard Butler: I fell in love with Andre Marek throughout the entire film and I couldn't help but think that he was incredibly good looking (I was only 11, after all). A subtle love grew for him after that film and then the real feelings came after Phantom. But this film was the start.
• Michael Sheen & Anna Friel: These two people are two of my all-time favourite actors and actresses. However, I didn't really pay them much mind in this film. I fell in love with Sheen in Frost/Nixon and Friel in Pushing Daisies. However, now I can watch this film with even more fondness, especially for Friel's Lady Claire.
'We're speaking the same language but you have no idea what I'm saying, do you?'
