Happy Birthday!Kenneth Branaugh! I’ve been seeing him on talk shows lately and sadly he looks much older that 47. Hope he is taking care of himself.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY Kenneth Branagh!!!
When I read COS, I absolutely loved Lockhart. He was so hilariously PATHETIC!
I think Branagh’s portrayal was the very best thing about the film. PERFECT, SIMPLY PERFECT!!!
Happy Birthday the very best Pr. Lockhart! Great actor!
Ever since Kenneth Branagh wrote to my son to congratulate him on his acting I have been his greatest fan. He is such a champion bloke and generous too. One day hope to meet him. Happy 47th I’m right behind you at 45!!!
I have always thought he is the most PERFECTLY portrayed character in the films. I absolutely love him as Lockhart! Happy birthday!!! :)
I didn’t know Branagh shared my birthday.
I’m a big fan of his too ever since I saw his (and his at-the-time wife’s (Emma Thompson; who plays Trelawney)) Much Ado About Nothing, which is still my favorite Shakespeare adaptation to film. Yes it’s just above Olivier’s Hamlet on my list.
Happy Birthday, gilded actor and personality, Branagh!!!!... You have brought the world much great entertainment… amazing bumbling dark arts defendant, indeed!!!! Got a lot to show for those 47 years!!! You will get Knighthood I am sure!!!!
love you, Preston
He was absolutely HYSTERICAL as Gilderoy Lockhart….Even more so on the Family Channel Extended version.
My favorite movie character in the Series!!!
