Daniel Craig was mesmerizing as Perry Smith. Because I am the only person on LoT who has not yet seen Casino Royale, I kept thinking as I was watching the film, this guy is going to play Bond? Now on a good night's sleep, I, of course, can totally see it, he was amazing in this film, though.

I happened to watch Infamous first and haven't rented Capote yet because I enjoyed the other so much. Sandra Bullock delivered her best performance (which to some may not be saying much, but whatever she's made of her career I always *believe* her - she's an honest performer). Twas a magnificent Harper Lee.

And Daniel Craig was AMAZING. I knew of his work before Casino Royale. Have never seen Layer Cake, which gave him quite a lot of notice, but he was wonderful as Ted Hughes in the (IMO) underrated Syliva. I really do think, as cheesy as it sounds, he's a force on screen.
