<p>This podcast is a blend of Richard Harris 1987-style mocking the "method" approach to acting, which he once practised and espoused, and its practitioners, such as De Niro, in The Untouchables, and me reading a section of my new book Richard Harris Raising Hell and Reaching for Heaven. It will be available in America from January 10th onwards. In the section I read - because it was a pub chat with Richard - he mocks the likes of Gabriel Byrne and Patrick Bergin. And praises Brendan Gleeson. It's all in good fun. I hope we don't hurt those named actors!!!</p>
