text:  I'm talking to Tim Blake from his home in Accutane, France, his adopted country since the mid-1970s. He looks like he's lived all of his 72 years. He's bone thin with a full head of thin salt and pepper brown hair that straggles down to his shoulders. He peers at me on the Riverside app sporting a goatee and wire-rimmed glasses. He looks like he could be a professor at Hogwarts.
