Emmy award winning British ‘hard man’ actor Ray Winstone headed the cast of the crime drama 44 Inch Chest as car salesman Colin Diamond alongside recently knighted Sir John Hurt, playing the crotchety and bigoted Old Man Peanut – a role that won him a Cordon Film Critics’ Circle Best British Supporting Actor nomination.
The film had its premiere screening at the BFI London Film Festival in October 2009, before a UK release in January 2010. Ray and Sir John signed this sketch after a preview and Q+A at the BFI in January 2010.
Very cool Mark. What a great idea of doing a sketch and having the celebrity sign it. Your portraits look great.

I wish. No, the kind of autographs I collect only go for a few dollars on ebay! (That’s why I don’t sell them, more valuable to me in other ways).
