      George C. Scott said he rates an actor on whether he sees the role or the actor playing a part.
      He always seems the role; a great tribute.

      He's magnetic in every single moment of every single film he's in--he's is amazing. i know the shoulder shift Gary refers to--Jim's whole life/world with Tom is shifted in his shoulders--he knows in that moment, the truth. I've seen this movie so many times, because you want to see every frame. A film bold enough to move at that pace needs every moment taken in. Beautiful movie, so simple and powerful.

      They also talk about the nature of acting, and their own acting, with a professional intelligence that is common in the UK and rare in the US, where actors usually turn up on late night chat shows and are required to be funny at all costs. Means certain kinds of actors and films rarely appear.

    This film was just incredible, in particular the acting and sound design. I think I've watched it 10 times by now and I can't think of a single weak point or sore spot in the entire movie. It was a delicious slow burn littered with pearls and diamonds all throughout the film.

    Mark Strong was so great in that Robin Hood movie, and that last scene he was in always stuck in my mind, he was in shock, bu then like a knowing what just happened, acknowledgement and acceptance that he was bettered and dying in a way he expected and kind of 'hats off' to Hood, all in one motion and expression. Probably the best death scene in any movie as it's so brutal and quick yet outstanding.

    Gary Oldman is great! He should've received the Oscar. Love these two actors.
