S3E5. Caspar Phillipson

On a visit to Los Angeles, which he called home for one year, Copenhagen-based Danish actor CASPAR PHILLIPSON recalls visiting LA for the first time for the Oscars for Jackie (2016), in which he portrayed John F. Kennedy. He talks about two other instances playing JFK, in Blonde (2022), and in his newest film, Hammarskjöld (2023). And he teases about his Danish tv series The Orchestra, and his very funny late night show on the piano singing Tom Lehrer songs.----------For today's episode, Caspar Phillipson chose P.S. Krøyer's Badende drenge en sommeraften ved Skagens strand, or Boys Bathing at Skagen, Summer Evening from 1899 from the collection of the National Gallery of Denmark.https://open.smk.dk/en/artwork/image/KMS1658 ----------Photographer: Yannick Wolff----------This conversation with Tina Jøhnk Christensen occurred on April 25, 2024.----------We invite you to subscribe to Danish Originals for weekly episodes.
