Robert Sheehan's reading for 'The Book Thief'

Last year a video of Robert's reading for the part of "Max" in the film The Book Thief http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0816442/ appeared online but was removed again. I only just saw it recently but it's so beautiful. It's a bit of a shame he didn't end up playing that part but at least we got to see his reading.
For anyone who didn't get a chance to watch it yet, you can currently find it here: http://s50.photobucket.com/user/erinn001/media/TheSheehab/RobertSheeha n-BookThiefonVimeo.mp4.html

Too bad he didn't get the part. He definitely looks it.

Huge bummer. This movie could have done wonders for his career.

I know. I wonder why he didn't get the role.

I like the guy but his accents are always a bit too off for me you can always hear the Irish coming through,(not necessarily a bad thing Colin farell built a career on it) and that one was pretty poor when you compare it to film Max's.

I agree. He needs to work on his accents. That's his weakness, but I believe with time and experience he'll get better.
