Don McKellar, Oscar nominee and Tony award winner, needs to get on this list.  Last Night, Childstar, etc., show that he’s a writer, director and actor with all the skills.

I also loved Egoyan’s film Exotica.

I’d add Arlington Road to the list of Virginia movies.  Its a movie that stayed with me.  Every time I hear a news cast reporting on a violent crime and speculating on the motives, I think of this movie and get chills.  Really good, and really creepy.

Wishing her a full recovery. ICU is scary.

 this gives his family some closure, but I’m sure the last few months have been awful for them.

I agree completely with Leslie Jones. I’d also like to add Wayne Brady to your list.

such a sad story

Did you ever see Punchline? Neurotic, prickly, and quippy are well within Hanks’ skill set.

##Facial hair isn’t just peach fuzz or cute little whispery tufts: It’s fully established.##

No Dolores Claiborne on the list? Kathy Bates’ return to Stephen King country was outstanding.

He’s right about men getting harassed: N’sync and Terry Crews among others have come forward with their stories, so I believe Mr. Lawrence received unwanted advances as well.

I read a lot, and Sebold’s book was FAR from the worst. I found it moving.

Darryl Mitchell uses a wheelchair these days due to paralysis, but I’d still love to see him in this.

an extraordinary life

I thought of Louis B. Meyer, Judy Garland’s tormentor.  Face it, none of these guys were very benevolent.

In the immortal words of Danny Glover, Leno is “too old for this sh**”.  Please slow down and take care, Mr. Leno!

“...keep finding a home their...”

I thought Reeves and Hurt elevated that movie.  Kline, Ullman, Plowright, were all great, but Reeves especially made I Love You To Death worth watching.

I never saw The Leftovers series, but I read the novel, which I highly recommend.  As for Battlestar Gallactica, YES!  (And Callum Keith Rennie deserves much more praise than he gets outside of Canada.  He was outstanding.)

Come on, Romano has done fine work outside of his sitcom. He was outstanding in The Big Sick, and in his Men of a Certain Age he kept up with Andre Braugher, for goodness sakes.  Give the guy a little respect.
