Michael Sheen: Martin Gammon character

Michael Sheen says that Martin Gammon, the character that he plays, has an elaborate fantasy life and delusions of grandeur. In this foreign country, his fantasies have come true and he is living in a dream, caught between not being able to believe that all he ever wanted has come true and that it is what he deserves. He is egotistical, self-serving and naïve but evokes sympathy since there is nothing calculated or cynical about him.
