Was Brian Dennehy A C**t?

Post One Sunny Day »

I mean, personally he seemed OK but there was something of the z list Brian Blessed about him. Couldn't speak as well, got outlived my the real thing and was actually,  well, pretty shit at acting, wasn't he? Pretty much dined out on Cocoon where he was even.out acted by that cսnt from Police Academy. Let's face it, he was an overrated badger.

I dunno but Brian Blessed could throw a kettle over a pub using his voice alone.

Despite my earlier comment, I am still on the fence. For example, could Brian Dennehy throw a kettle over a pub?

Thought he had a decent run in the mid 80s with F/X, Best Seller and Belly of an architect. 

According to Wiki, he won two Tony Awards, an Olivier Award, and a Golden Globe, and received six Primetime Emmy Award nominations. I very much doubt that Brian Blessed received similar accolades.

I thought Dennehy was outstanding in First Blood. Didn't know him personally so can't comment on the other stuff.

Brian Blessed is a national treasure! We all know that. I was saying that Brian Dennehy is a cheap, z list, rip off version of Brian Blessed.
