Alex Kingston's hair is luxurious here. Her outfit is also INCREDIBLY 1994.

I cannot even explain to you how much floppy hair was happening in 1994.

Ralph spent a lot of time dressing like he's in a luxe community theatre production of one of Moliere's lesser works in the mid-90s.

It's Tony winners Matthew Broderick, Cherry Jones, Glenn Close and Ralph Fiennes, who won for -- respectively -- How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, The Heiress, Sunset Boulevard, and Hamlet. I remembered all of those except The Heiress, but it took me an hour to remember Eddie Vedder's name yesterday. The mind is an complex organ.

I have huge notes about this mustache. Also, yes, Ralph and Alex Kingston got married after like a decade together and he promptly left her for Francesca Annis here. (She left her husband as well. I believe he eventually left HER for after having an affair with someone ELSE. Drama!!)

Here, we've got Bob Hoskins (L), Jennifer Lopez (C-L), Ralph Fiennes (C-R) and Natasha Richardson, who of course was married to Liam Neeson at the time, and was in a TON of stuff with Fiennes and was very close friends with him. J. Lo's bod looks amazing in that dress, it must be said.

None of these people seem to be enjoying themselves. (This is where I note that I LOVE The English Patient, and Fiennes and Scott Thomas are both GORGEOUS in it.) P. Cruz looks gorgeous, though.

I decided to put an end to the "Young Ralph Era" here, where his hair looks terrible and he is 44. (Still young-ish!)
