Ok, then I'll just have to get out to see Last King ... because Peter O' Toole was magnificent ... and I'm getting a little tired of these real-life immitator roles.
One thing I think Alex and I have agreed on is that these types of roles, with unknown quantities of impersonation mixed in with the performance, come into the game with a handicap.
So, I'll have to see Scotland, Volver, and I think Notes on a Scandal and I'll be the most "prepared" non-Academy voter I think I've ever been ... and that's not to mention I'm likely to see programs of the nominated live and animated short subjects. Sheesh!
