| Ben Whishaw, one of the many stars of Cloud Atlas |
This month's mascot is Ben Whishaw. He is an amazing actor, whom I have never been let down by.

| Ben as Robert Frobisher in one of the Cloud Atlas posters. |
The most obvious reason for picking him this month is his role in "Cloud Atlas". He plays composer and lay-about Robert Frobisher - the writer of the "Cloud Atlas Sextet", the piece of music that plays through the various plots.

| Composing with Jim Broadbent |
He has done a lot of work in England, and the BBC showed the TV Mini-series "The Hour" recently.

| Ben in "The Hour" |
He has also done theater work in London. One of the plays made it here to the states in 2010 - "The Pride", and I saw it. He was amazing. He's a waif of a boy, but amazing actor.

With Hugh Dancy in "The Pride". If you know how small Hugh is...
..well, you can imagine the slightness of Ben Whishaw |
Next up for him is the new "Q" in the James Bond film Skyfall.

Young Mr. Whishaw is so talented, it's amazing.
