“The Honourable Rebel” UK Film Release!

As many know already, my esteemed & incredibly accomplished great Uncle Edward, Lord Montagu, regretfully passed away in September.  A lesser known fact, is that my renaissance man of an uncle was preceded by a true renaissance woman — his late elder half-sister, The Honourable Elizabeth Montagu of Beaulieu, England.  Not only was Great Aunt Elizabeth a musician, linguist, writer, actress, film director and aristocrat, but she completely went against the tradition of her upbringing and became a secret agent for the British Secret Service, who evaded the Gestapo during WWII!

Great Aunt Elizabeth’s incredible life story has become the subject of a new movie “The Honourable Rebel”, based on her autobiography. The film is scheduled to premiere across the UK & Ireland on December 4th across the Odeon Theater chain, and I’m pleased to share that I had the honor of playing my grandfather, Grainger Weston, for one scene of the film.
If you happen to live in the UK, please check it out in theaters next month! I’d love to hear what you think. I’m incredibly proud to be in Elizabeths heritage.
