Born in the mid-1960s in Enfield (now a London borough), Dexter Fletcher is an actor, film director and producer. He is the British equivalent of USA's Ron Howard. Both became famous as actors and have gone on to direct some great films. Fletcher's quirky style brings enjoyment to a mostly family audience, through such movies as:
- Sunshine on Leith (2013)
- Eddie the Eagle (2015)
- Rocketman (2019)
- Ghosted (2023)
I've just got round to watching Ghosted, which features Chris Pine and other Marvel stars in small roles (e.g. Anthony Mackie & Ryan Reynolds). It's a love story, it's an action-packed spy film, it's humorous. Summary: a recommended watch; great fun!
I know that I watched Sunshine on Leith and Eddie the Eagle, both of which I enjoyed, but it was so long ago that I can't remember details of what was good about them! Not a fan of Elton John but I may watch Rocketman some day.
