Hannibal and The Americans are so great, I'd say whichever one you choose, you'll be in for a treat.

She seems like one of those actors who genuinely loves acting and isn't much of a careerist. I know another commenter a while back said she was a bit like Jennifer Jason Leigh: a great talent and beauty with a knack for choosing odd, unflattering projects.

Man, I know it is pretty premature, but I hope she has a role that wins her a slew of awards.

Part of it is general ageism (her big break in Mulholland Drive was when she was in her early 30s, which is impressive in its own right), part of it is she has always chosen more odd, unflattering projects than the blander vehicles that could get her more attention. Here's hoping she has a great big role in the Twin…

How nice Owen Jones isn't lining his pockets with fluff and chooses to still fight and write about grotesque class inequalities.

Feelings on Cameron Diaz's performance in the film?

Perhaps Rosamund Pike instead of Jennifer Lawrence?

I started off very annoyed by The Big Short, but gradually warmed to it a bit as it went along. I still think the fact it won Best Adapted Screenplay over Carol was ridiculous.

I do love London and I would be more than delighted to stay there. However, Bristol is my favorite city in Britain and my dream would be to find a job that allows me to live there.

Leo would have been an interesting choice, although I heard Grier's performance was simply sublime in the film.

I can't wait to watch it! The mid- to late-90s certainly were a good time when it came to bringing Leonard's work to the big screen.

Animal Kingdom was a fantastic film. And thank you for the reminder to watch Bloodline.

Ice Cream Planet's LiveJournal™:
*Back Stateside for a ten day vacation/holiday/sabbatical. It's wonderful seeing family, friends, and my pets again (how I missed being able to take my dog for a long walk through the park). And yet, while Minneapolis (and the US) feel familiar, it feels less like home than it ever…

It's a special vitamin!

A possible two seasons of Naomi Watts, Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Laura Dern all together in a David Lynch-directed project?!

What about the same 8 or 9, but 8 or 9 times?

Wowza!

Noooooooooooooooo, not another series!

You have such interesting reading choices.

Poor ventilation was the problem.
