Anthony Hopkins is a treasure and we're lucky to have him on Twitter
Legendary actor Anthony Hopkins is good at Twitter.
He may have as much reach as Patrick Stewart, whose 3 million plus followers dwarf Hopkins' 190,000. But he'll get there if he keeps posting oddities like the one he shared on Sunday.
Most of you have probably encountered the idiom "dance like no one is watching" at some point or another. That's what Hopkins is doing here, but everyone is watching because it's up on Twitter.

"This is what happens when you're all work and no play," Hopkins writes, by way of introduction.
The musical number you're hearing is called "The Plaza." It's a cut off the 2012 classical music album, Composer, which features compositions written by Hopkins and selections from film scores.
The purpose of the tweet... well, it isn't clear. But does a good tweet really need a reason to exist, beyond "it's good."
Not in this case. Weird on, Sir Hopkins. This is great stuff.
