Fly Fishing People: Liam Neeson

January 3, 2011 By: Marshall Cutchin

As a former fencer, I think everyone should see the sword fight is between Liam Neeson’s character Robert Roy MacGregor and Tim Roth’s character Archibald Cunningham in “Rob Roy” (1995). (As a commenter wrote, “… this is how all Jedi become Scotsmen.”)
This morning CTV News notes that, if anything, being one of the hardest working actors alive has actually led Neeson to rediscover what’s most important. “‘There’s a lot of nonsense in Hollywood. I’ve been a part of that years ago and gotten the t-shirt. I was even president of the club at one stage. I love doing the work but then when I’m not working I love my other life which is being with my kids and fly fishing as much as I can.”
