Rhys Ifans....a far cry from Notting Hill

I thoroughly enjoyed Rhys Ifans in Notting Hill and the other movies I have seen him in. but, he always played such odd characters and that is what I expected when I brought home "Danny Deckchair". Even at the beginning with the wild hair and scruffy beard, he seemed as though he were type cast.
Then, Shazaam! Hair cut, shave, nice suit, and one great looking guy. And, he has put on weight. He is no longer this skinny dude with a little pot belly. In fact, he looks great. I just enjoy watching his expressions and his expressive eyebrows. He says more with his eyebrows that does Jack Nicholson, and uses more variety of emotions with those eyebrows.
