My Take
Johnny Harris is exactly the kind of actor I root for: hard-edged, self-made, and quietly versatile. Born in Lambeth in 1973, trained at Morley College and once a boxer, he writes, directs and produces as well as acts, and his breakthrough in London to Brighton landed it on Time Out's hundred greatest British films. I value that he is not a polished leading man but a performer who carries the weight of real streets onto the screen. The combination of a body shaped by the ring and a mind that builds scripts makes him formidable, and I think craftsmen like him quietly outlast the trend-chasers.
