And we're back! I Know That Face has returned from our summer hibernation with a whole episode dedicated to everyone's favourite part of Titanic. No, it's not Celine Dion, it's Victor Garber. A consummate Canadian professional, Garber has been acting since forever. From rom-coms like Sleepless in Seattle and Happiest Season to thrillers like Self/Less and Exotica, Garber has added that secret spice to a wide variety of roles.

Of the many moustaches we've covered, the best and most consistent belongs to Sam Elliott. With a career stretching across 50 years, the actor made his name in Westerns and often played men of action. He also diversified and played around with his image in the likes of The Big Lebowski and A Star is Born. Best known for Tombstone and 1883, Sam Elliott has been a reliable presence and you can hear us talk about why here.

It's Walton week on I Know That Face. Walton Goggins that is. Andrew and Stephen set out to cover the prolific character actor's career from his humble beginnings in Robert Duvall's The Apostle through his scene stealing turns in Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained and The Hateful Eight right up to his most recent role in Amazon's Fallout. Don't think we forgot about his star making roles in The Shield and Justified. Well we did but No Encore host Dave Hanratty didn't and he came in at the 11th hour to help us out with those.

Andrea Riseborough joins Jennifer Jason Leigh and Tilda Swinton to complete the Holy Trinity of actresses who can do anything. Able to shift chameleon-like between roles, Riseborough is one of our favourites and has appeared in crime thrillers like Welcome to the Punch, horrors like Mandy and The Grudge, scored an Oscar nod for To Leslie in 2022 and appeared in the musical Matilda. Like I said, she can do it all!

We're covering royalty this week. Parker Posey or the Queen of the Indies had an incredible run in the 1990s starring in a seemingly endless amount of indie films. From the hangout vibes of Dazed and Confused to the rich wastrel charms of Kicking and Screaming and from the nightmare dark comedy The House of Yes to the family dramedy The Daytrippers we're bringing you a small portion of Posey's best work.

This week we begin our two part coverage on the King of the Character Actors: Christopher Walken. Known for his eccentric characters, out there line deliveries and the ease with which he switches from calm to chilling, Walken is one of the greatest living actors right now. Beginning with his Oscar-win for Best Supporting actor in the Vietnam war epic The Deer Hunter, we track his career through the ‘80s and into the early ‘90s. We look at the Stephen King adaptation The Dead Zone, the musical Pennies from Heaven and the crime thrillers At Close Range and King of New York.

The midnight hour is close at hand this week on I Know That Face as we take a deep dive into horror films starring Vincent Price. The Merchant of Menace is best known for a string of Edgar Allen Poe adaptations produced and directed by Roger Corman in the early ‘60s but his output extends from Universal Horror in the 1940s all the way to the early work of Tim Burton. Price starred in horror hits such as House of Wax, Witchfinder General and Theatre of Blood. Non-horror fans may know him best from the monologue in Michael Jackson's Thriller or as Professor Rattigan in The Great Mouse Detective.

I Know That Face returns! We're champions of the underappreciated here and few other actors feel as underappreciated as Djimon Hounsou. A commanding and authoritative presence, Hounsou has appeared in movies such as The Island, Never Back Down, The Legend of Tarzan, Guardians of the Galaxy and Shazam! However, his most soulful work is in films such as Blood Diamond, Gladiator and In America. If you're as excited for Gladiator 2 as we are, this episode is worth your time.

On our last episode before our annual summer break, we talk about the career of the legendary Ernest Borgnine. A naval officer through the war years, he turned to acting after his discharge and within a decade had won the 1956 Best Actor Oscar for Marty. The actor was relied on as an unconventional lead and a supporting player for many in such films as Bad Day at Black Rock, The Dirty Dozen, The Wild Bunch, The Poseidon Adventure and Hustle. Some listeners may note a decline in audio quality in this episode, this was due to some technical issues on our end but rest assured our dulcet tones will return this summer!
