If you watched 'Mum'...

you might be interested to know that Peter Mullan, who played the incredibly sweet and gentle Michael, is also in 'Sunset Song', currently on BBC iPlayer and he is playing the polar opposite of Michael. I thought he looked familiar and then it clicked who he was - such a versatile actor.

He's my secret crush... 💙

Loved that programme especially the grumpy grandparents and the ditzy girlfriend.

Oh bugger, thought you were going to say it's back on iplayer. I was half way through and they deleted it!

I first came across him in a drama called This Little Life... I sobbed so much watching it. HERE

I disliked his simpering character in Mum, so I'd like to see him play someone with a backbone!

He's my secret crush...

He’s my not-secret crush.

And he is in West World.

Elderflower14 thank you for the link - film looks very good.

Edwinchester IKWYM about him being too passive in Mum, but in Sunset Song, he has backbone and then some....

Didn't realise he was so prolific as an actor.

He’s also in Ozark. Played a mean guy in that too.

mum2jakie · 02/09/2019 09:35

He's a big drug dealer in the original Trainspotting film!

He is my secret crush thanks for the recommendation

EleanorReally · 03/09/2019 07:12

I watched Magdalene Sisters which he wrote and directed

PulyaSochsup · 03/09/2019 07:13

I very rarely watch anything but I watched this, it was brilliant. I loved the way the personalities evolved. I liked Michael, I may well check this out.

Elderflower14 · 03/09/2019 07:33

He was also in a film about a man who wants to swim the English Channel... Brenda Blethyn plays his wife

LizzieMacQueen · 03/09/2019 07:43

Sunshine on Leith is another one to watch, especially if you want to hear him sing.

EleanorReally · 04/09/2019 21:41

Enjoying Sunset Song, thanks for the recommendation

thatone · 05/09/2019 06:45

I really enjoyed it too EleanorReally, I thought Agyness Deyn was also very good in it. Must check out the other things he was in, he was so perfect as Michael.

He is amazing! He really takes on every character he plays so naturally.
