Quite lovely and refreshingly personal article about Benedict (that second part "An actor´s life for him") from his former schoolmate at Harrow:

I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for? Stand at the window there. Was there ever such a dreary, dismal, unprofitable world? See how the yellow fog swirls down the street and drifts across the dun-coloured houses. What could be more hopelessly prosaic and material? What is the use of having powers, Doctor, when one has no field upon which to exert them?

Oh, thank you, this is wonderful. Refreshing, as you say, without false adoration but full of honest respect and fondness. And lovely how Benedict defended Branagh's Hamlet.
