Happy 58th birthday, Bill Nighy!
How can we let it go by without acknowledging the great squid pirate, the undead stepdad, the aged rockstar, the bad ass vampire lord, and Slartibartfast?
In case you missed those references, please get a Netflix account (that way you don't have to leave your man-cave, you hermit) and rent Pirates of the Caribbean, Shaun of the Dead, Love, Actually, Underworld (both 1 and 2) and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. He's one crafty shape-shifter. We won't really examine his dramatic works on Broadway, the West End, or Oscar nominated pieces because we all know those are just boring.
Way to have that career surge at mid-life, sir, and a happy birthday to you.

You left out Still Crazy...

Shaun of the Dead is the film that brought him to the fore in our house - now you can't swing a deead cat without hitting him in a project. He's this year's Jude Law.

You mention him as an aged rock star and yet you leave "Still Crazy" out of your list!!! For shame.
Happy B-Day, Bill. Thanks for the fun.
