A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
She did definitely have life then, and when she came back to the hotel after the failed convoy. But only for a second, and then she went back into the same portrayal. I saw her on an episode of MI 5, and I swear she was better then. However, I kept imagining Gina Torres in the role, because of a gig of hers on The Guardian.
I loved watching Don Cheadle change. His beats are marvellous.

Do you mean the scene with the tie? Because that was heartbreaking. He was wonderful.
That scene, the scene when he realised from watching Colonel Oliver that something was wrong, and the progression to the distrust of European assistance, and also his decision to not go on that first convoy.
Oh, yeah, absolutely. I was just reading "change" in a literal way.
Oh man, and the scene with the kids and the nuns and priests and everyone who was obviously there because they cared being separated? So heartbreaking. So, nice work by the day players, as well.
Don Cheadle's accent in Ocean's Twelve was actually bearable this time. The best bit was that he kept giving Julia Roberts tips about her accent when she was pretending to be Julia Roberts .
I haven't had the ability to see it yet. I just don't want to cry.
However!
I did watch Alien vs. Predator. One of the finest films I've seen, that.
I remember watching that and thinking "Poor Raoul's character. In any other movie, your leading man good looks and common sense would mean that you'd be half of the surviving couple. But this being an Alien sequel, you'll be the last to die, poignantly so as to give the kickass female lead extra motivation when she saves the day."
I heard last night that Nick Nolte was he reason that the film got financed. His company raised money and took no credit. He didn't want to act in it but the money folks insisted and he really believed in he project so that's why he's in it. Makes me respect his performance more.
Who did Nick Nolte play, the Alien or the Predator?

He played a half-alien/half-predator, who had to decide if he wanted to follow the alien way of life or honor his predator heritage. Much like Spock when he was a boy.
