101. I love Kinon and Rossiu/Kinon. I wish they'd gotten more screentime.

102. There would also be massive wank by conflicts among the fans who idolized him and refused to believe that he wasn't an arrogant asshole, the fans who knew that he was an arrogant asshole but still thought he was pretty and fun to watch (and, really--Edwin was the talented one, he was the pretty one), and people who just plain hated him.

It might look a lot like Supernatural fandom, actually. Hmmm.

102. Who is that?

(Anonymous) 2008-10-06 09:47 pm (UTC)(link)
LOLOL, awesome. Wow, he was hot.

[identity profile] annwyd.livejournal.com 2008-10-06 09:49 pm (UTC)(link)
He was. He made the Southern belles swoon. XD

This secret has gotten me all fired up -- I'd never thought about Booth as anything other than an assassin before. Was he well-regarded as an actor?

It's been a while since I read up on the subject, so take this with a grain of salt and poke about online if you're interested in learning more.

The short answer is "sort of." He came from a family of famous actors with a distinct Shakespearean bent and went onto the stage like his father and brother. He himself got mixed reviews--he wasn't bad, but like a lot of actors today, he was appreciated as much for his good looks as his acting, and some critics questioned his actual skills. What's not so much in question is that his brother Edwin was the real gem of talent in the family; he's still regarded as an amazing actor, and there's an Edwin Booth Theatre in NYC.

Thank you, that's really interesting! Tomorrow, library time. :)

Wow, F!S: Sometimes You Learn Things.

102 OP

the fans who knew that he was an arrogant asshole but still thought he was pretty and fun to watch

Yeah, that would be me ;)

Although while I admit that Edwin was more talented, I think John must've had some skill, too, obviously his being attractive helped him, but he also got some scathing reviews in spite of his good looks early on in his career, and I think he must've gotten fairly good eventually because else why should the reviewers change their minds?

Re: 102 OP

[identity profile] annwyd.livejournal.com 2008-10-07 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I imagine he probably was pretty good. Besides any talent he would have picked up just from being around his family and seeing their work, I seem to recall that he was a sometime Confederate spy as well, and acting skills help in a position like that.

And there'd be the smaller fandom in the corner for Edwin who would constantly scream, "Don't leak your crazy on us!!!"

(\o_ <= Edwin fangirl)
