The Mask of the Demon III

" ...three actors and a writer...they all lie for a living..." (Father Brown).

I really enjoyed this episode. A film crew making horror movie "The Demon Brides"(The Virgin Vampires" at first) comes to the village, starring Lady Felicia's friend Rex Bishop (Jonathan) and two leading actresses, Paulette Swain (Molly Hanson) and Bebe Fontaine (Deirdre Mullins). Bebe is a wife of unpopular director Vivian Wolsey, who is murdered. V. Wolsey was holding his reluctant cast and crew to ransom with their contracts, he was blackmailing Jon's character, Rex (who's homosexual).
Jonathan was excellent, as always. And I give my compliments to other actors. Sorcha Cusack (as Mrs McCarthy) is really sweet. I like short scenes she had with Jonathan's character, Rex.
Rex is a lovable, wonderful character,a gentle and very polite gentleman, who worries about his reputation. He is a great actor (Hollywood star), and an even better director. I think that playing this character was to easy for Jonathan. He is capable of playing diverse and more complicated characters. But it's a pleasure seeing him acting since 2010 (The Prince and me) in movies again. Hope there'll be more films.

P.S. Did I mention Jonathan has a dazzling smile? :)
