Mr Inbetween- Australian series about a hitman whose life is caught "inbetween" his family and his job. The main character (Ray Shoesmith) is played by Scott Ryan who created and wrote the series which is based on an earlier film he made called "The Magician" which is a documentary based on following the same hitman around. Scott Ryan's performance in Mr Inbetween is amazing considering that he's not an actor and his grin is one of the scariest things that I've seen.
The Magician, Wild Strawberries, Through a glass darkly, The Virgin Spring and the Seventh Seal. These films are 50 years old! Being in these films alone would be enough to qualify as a cinema legend and he still had nearly 50 years to go! Extraordinary!!!
