What's so odd is how Hoffman grows about 8 inches when you see him in the movies. That's really some "method acting". Either that or everybody standing beside him is standing in a trench. lol

Come on Bob you just liked flight because it was about a drunk that did something great.....in spite of being soused

I think your perception is clouded by sentimentality.




Nope......it was top five movie I have ever seen.........Top three. It was brilliant. I have never seen the Academy so whacked......never. I think there is a real backlash to Spielberg......I have no other explanation. I think this is going to be typical arrogance.....I should probably stop now........but I think we have become so acclimated to mediocrity in short dresses and six packs that we have simply lost our minds.......At least best actor they should get right......but I even question that........Lewis was brilliant but the dim light in the room is the lack of knowledge.....replaced by some hip in the moment idolization of youth and perverse........it has been a disaster in my opinion.

Nah it was a brilliantly executed motion picture. Every frame of it kept my eyes and ears glued to the screen and the sound system. That's what separates out the really good ones. All the rest is secondary.

Well it definitely brought you full circle from admiration to disgust with the main character...

When you can make something that's conclusion is so forgone, suspenseful ...

... That's good movie making.

Remember, he saved all those lives. That is never disputed. And then he had the guts to take the fall anyway. And I'm not the biggest Denzel Washington fan but that was the performance of his career. He made that character totally believable thoughout the story.
It shoulda got best picture, best director, best screenplay, best actor and best editing.

I take that back. Phoenix in The Master was the oscar winning performance.
I'd forgotten already. That is the most uncanny acting I have ever seen in a movie.
The movie itself is kinda hard to take. I left the theater confused about whether I liked it or loathed it. But after further reflection it started to grow on me. I look forward to another viewing.
But what Pheonix did takes acting to a new level. You actually believe the character is a real person even though his face is so recognizable as being Phoenix. You forget that you're watching Phoenix or anyone acting. Never seen that done any better.

Lewis captured some of that in Lincoln. But nowhere near to the extent Phoenix did.
