Richard Looks Back On His Childhood
“Richard E Grant has finally seen a long held dream fulfilled by bringing the tale of his early life to the big screen.
It’s a very personal examination of family life and here he tells Lindi Bilgorri of his fascination with the public show people perform to hide their private lives.
Richard E Grant wears two watches. One is his own watch, which is on GM time, and the other is his father’s, which on Swaziland time. It was his father’s last gift to him.
“My father gave it to when he was dying,” says Grant in his distinctive English voice. “It is both sentimental and practical.”
It’s practical because Grant still has strong ties towards the country where he was born and lived until he was 25. And although he left the country more than 20 years ago, he still speaks to people there every other day and has great friendship and connection with the place.
It’s sentimental because he has fond memories of his life growing up and going to school in Swaziland.”
