Really...just vanished into the space.<BR/><BR/>Anne Hathaway, on the other hand. a stage actress would make a lovely Olivia...so, why is she playing Viola? How can they ever make her believable as a man? I know, a woman dressed as a man...but, it has to be believable.<BR/><BR/>The best Viola yet....Imogen Stubbs in the film version with Helena Bonham Carter.

Hunt was kind of bland. Kyra Sedgwick was also in that lopsided production at Lincoln Center. There were some good moments in that production, though. It was directed by Nicholas Hytner. Paul Rudd was shown swimming in a pool wearing only a thong. I have that show on tape somewhere. I must go look at it now.gabrieloakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00460263240309976652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-21660027461992146752009-02-14T10:18:00.000-05:002009-02-14T10:18:00.000-05:00weird.what is it with fresh Oscar glory and that p...weird.<BR/><BR/>what is it with fresh Oscar glory and that play?NATHANIEL Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11597109147678235399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-75144228959245367482009-02-14T09:53:00.000-05:002009-02-14T09:53:00.000-05:00Helen Hunt also did Twelfth Night soon after her f...Helen Hunt also did Twelfth Night soon after her first nomination.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-83880666033621020312009-02-14T07:55:00.000-05:002009-02-14T07:55:00.000-05:00Anne Hathaway has a bit more stage experience than...Anne Hathaway has a bit more stage experience than Michelle having started out in the theater, mostly musical theater, plus she has won acclaim for her stage work. Though I don't know how much dramatic work she has done in the theater. I do know she was fantastic in an Encores concert of Carnival a few years ago.<BR/><BR/>I saw Michelle in Twelfth Night in Central Park. It was clear she was uncomfortable on stage--she also seemed smaller on stage than on screen. It wasn't a terrible production, just not fantastic or memorable. That was during her Fisher Stevens years, LOL.<BR/><BR/>Meanwhile while Mickey Rourke keeps getting media coverage, it seems only the Carpetbagger is noting that Penn has an interview in Rollng Stone right now. It doesn't help that RS doesn't have the full interview online.gabrieloakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00460263240309976652noreply@blogger.com
