No, I haven't. But I feel pretty safe in saying that even if this film is a OK, 99% of his other input is nothing more than 'sleepy time down south'. Hence the string(more like a thick rope) of B movies he made. Every time I see him in some film I ask myself what the casting director was thinking of. MY and Malcolm McDowell are two Brits that had high hopes and turned up to be empties. Ever ask yourself why both of them were in so many really bad films? Perhaps they are bad actors? Valid or not?
I wouldn't call MY a serious actor. At least Ron Jeremy can safely say that he really(!!!) enjoyed making movies.
...but I have to admit that as I went back into Malcolm's filmography, the only other noteworthy performance was that in O Lucky Man, soooo long ago. That out of over 100 movies that he made (not that I have seen most of them)!Perhaps just another case of Kibrick being able to take a mediocre actor (O'Neil, McDowell) and produce a spectacular results. To bad his last one failed in that respect - but we already spent too much time on that one.
One thing for sure, I would rather watch York than many others, his sophisticated British flavor carrying him through. At the very least, he is not offensive.
As far as Ron Jeremy enjoying himself - not sure. As far as I understand that idustry, making these films is not about pleasure, it is about tight schedules, budgets, and doing *it* on a que. Last thing the producers worry about is what the stars feel.
