But having a few noticed roles in one year may help him get his first nom for Atonement. Maybe he'll be this year's mid-20s Actor nominee, following Gosling and Ledger (and a long drought!).<BR/><BR/>Amir, v disappointing on Cotillard.

Here's hoping it does the book justice. Though in the hands of Joe Wright - who made an art movie out of an Austen novel - I'm not at all worried.<BR/><BR/>Talking about Oscar predictions... I managed to catch La Vie en rose at this French Film Festival in London a couple of weeks ago...and all I can say is how gutted I now am about predicting Cotillard for a Best Actress nom. That performance should not be anywhere near Oscar's shortlist - it's pure caricature. The film itself is awful - if I were Cotillard I'd be mightily pissed off at the editor for butchering any semblance of character progression in the original performance.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-76550701459368678662007-04-12T17:38:00.000-04:002007-04-12T17:38:00.000-04:00Looks very handsome, but I hope this doesn't go th...Looks very handsome, but I hope this doesn't go the "Painted Veil" route.<BR/><BR/>McAvoy wouldn't have been my first thought for his character's role (he seems too slight, somehow - physically, that is) but I think he'll do good.<BR/><BR/>Garai will be supporting, though her *character* is the - well, the controlling consciousness, anyway.

Don't know what I was thinking. Stupid. I only predicted it for supporting actress (Garai) and adapted screenplay.<BR/><BR/>Don't know how I feel about Keira, though. Her performance seemed... weird. Maybe the way they cut it together here was just unflattering. <BR/><BR/>But McAvoy and the film itself look like they could hit very very big. I really should've predicted them.
