Ruf's Favorite Things

[megagem]

I just wanted to unearth this one from the deep dark depths for any newer members and for the pure fact that I love that one of Rufus' favourite films is Bedknobs and Broomsticks. I think it's quite a rarity to hear of a guy who's more than happy to say that one of his favourites is a Disney film. Just another reason to love him ;D
My sister and I both grew up watching B&B and actually re-watched it last night for what was probably the thirteen hundred gazillionth time. I'm somewhat familiar with both Being There and Don't Look Now, but I don't think I've ever watched either one all the way. I'll see if I can get my hands on them somehow.

There are still threads on this forum that I haven't managed to read in the year I've been here. Thanks for bumping it back up, Meg!

And, in this interview, he said his favorite smell is penguins - I'm assuming he was kidding. haha! ;D

anglophile, I think we've got the chocolate quote somewhere else on the board, too. I don't remember the exact wording but he said he liked dark chocolate, the darker, the better.

This is the 'penguins' article: rufussewell.net/article_guardian1995.html (I love Rufus's style!)

and maybe this is the 'chocolate' one:

Thanks Meg. I also love B&B. Have it in my Disney collection.

Chocolate...cant live without it! I prefer milk chocolate over the dark though.

Me too. Thanks for the link, I love all his quirky answers. I'm still laughing about the penguins. Those cute little guys are rather smelly creatures! ;D

and maybe this is the 'chocolate' one:

At least that was the one I thought of.

thanks for the links.

Oh, thanks for bringing this one back up! I hadn't seen it and it made me burst into laughter. XD

Thanks for adding the link to the 'penguins' article, Adina. The whole thing made me smile and I loved all his answers, especially "feeling thin on a boat" and "Cor-blimey trousers"

Just a little thought.....The smell of Penguin chocolate biscuits is quite distinct, and extremely .....well, chocolatey. As our Beloved so likes chocolate, might that be a possible explanation?
(It was the first thing that came to mind on reading the word 'penguin', and I haven't been able to eat chocolate for at least twenty years! )

Cor-blimey trousers. Does he like the song 'My old man's a dustman ?'

I never thought of that Lindragon! That could very well be true!
