And she turned in solid work in <i>Reservation Road</i> and <i>Blood Diamond</i> -- much better than in <i>A Beautiful Mind</i>, IMHO.<br /><br />I've been thinking about <i>The Hours </i> as of late -- and why is it that it seems like only every five years or more we get a quartet of top actresses (in this instance, Kidman, Richardson, Moore and Streep) starring in a major Hollywood drama at the top of their craft? Now we have <i>August: Osage County</i> to look forward to with Julia Roberts.

I was able to tell him about my deep, undying love for <i>Collateral</i> and even praised <i>Australia</i>. He was very generous.<br /><br />And I spoke to 10-year-old Morgana Davies who gives one of the best child performances I've ever seen in <i>The Tree</i> (she was 8 at the time). I complimented her acting and the film and she smiled and shook my hand. Her mother was very lovely about the whole thing.<br /><br />I also spoke to Joel Edgerton who is just as sexy in real life. And I didn't leap onto Sullivan Stapleton in a fit of lust so I think that's a win.Glennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08194113062830373898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-89928040373320157752010-12-12T19:45:22.005-05:002010-12-12T19:45:22.005-05:00Joanna - CLASSIC!Joanna - CLASSIC!NATHANIEL Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11597109147678235399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-83665391097075887632010-12-12T19:43:03.943-05:002010-12-12T19:43:03.943-05:00"I have my head.

I can understand why, but it usually takes forever to reach my neck of the woods. <br /><br />and why is Hollywood trying to get me to care about Blake Lively? it's just not happening.
