Driving home from the Nine screening last night, I turned to my friend and said, "Day-Lewis as Benjamin Barker, Depp as Guido Contini. Better casting?"Paul Outlaw makes an intriguing casting switch. Could it fix Nine AND Sweeney Todd, simultaneously?
... i swear to god. Every single episode it's like he convinces me even more that everyone on god's green earth should be casting him in something. Immediately. Plus: hot. In related news: Dollhouse has finally become, in its last four or five episodes what I always hoped it would be (sniffle).
11 chatty moviegoers:
I cannot put in words how much I love Julianne's performance as Amber Waves.
The foxiest bitch in the whole wide world and one of the best performances ever put on screen.
Best Supporting Actress of the 90's!
Nathaniel, your unwavering support of my favourite movie is commendable. Are you a fan of the whole film or just Moore's performance?
Now that i think about it, a sequel to Boogie Nights would be really interesting.
I see Dirk Diggler basically becoming Ron Jeremy. Out of shape and a reality TV personality who used to famous for his big...um, Dirk. He'll be a "star" indeed who suffers from delusions of grandeur.
I just see nothing positive when it comes to Amber Waves. She was just too self-destructive. I don't see her on good terms with her kid at all and i don't see her really cleansed of her former life. But that's probably just me.
glendon it's in my personal canon (100 favorites) and in my top ten of the 90s

Also, Julianne Moore's performance in Savage Grace is great!
What a great film and a great actress. Ah, the sequel to Boogie Nights would be a bunch of ex porn stars in recovery.
My top 5 Supporting Actresses for 1997 (since a couple people have done it):
Kim Basinger (L.A. Confidential)
Joan Cusack (In & Out)
Anne Heche (Wag the Dog)
Julianne Moore (Boogie Nights)
Sigourney Weaver (The Ice Storm)
Laugh all your want, but I love Cusack and Heche in those films. On a side note, wouldn't have been fun to see Glenn Close get a blockbuster nomination for "Air Force One"? It's so bad, but she's great in everything, and I think that would have been hilarious.
alex... anybody who would laugh about Anne Heche being a fine actress has only paid attention to the tabloid craziness of her career.
she is.
though in 1997 i'd have nominated her for Donnie Brasco instead of Wag the Dog
my list might look like this:
BASINGER - LA Confidential
HECHE - Donnie Brasco
MOORE - Boogie Nights (winner)
POSEY - Waiting for Guffman
RICCI - Ice Storm
(give or take CUSACK, O'HARA or WEAVER)
