I never felt there was the special chemistry needed for her scenes with Phoenix, and when she's not off-putting I found her to be underwhelming)<br /><br />Hawkins - 4(She's good in making this sort of happy person believable as she brings that constant energy without making it seem too much. I love her in her scenes with Eddie Marsan, and she does well in revealing the way her character essentially deals with someone who questions her happiness. I have to admit though I don't care for the rest of the film and Hawkins does not quite make her just interacting with random people compelling)Louis Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07933180959140340196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2457552600380761837.post-19883281997909651122015-06-09T15:10:47.452-04:002015-06-09T15:10:47.452-04:00Robert,

No, he did it because there was no other recourse that he could see, save for sacrificing himself on the pyre (which Melisandre would not have allowed). They were stranded, dying, and he was desperate. Was it the right move? Yes. Was it a just move? Not at all, and he will forever be haunted by his actions. But he did love Shireen, and doing what he did killed his soul. Now he's just waiting for his body to rot.Psifoniannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2457552600380761837.post-13296507463344133002015-06-09T14:32:08.236-04:002015-06-09T14:32:08.236-04:00If Louis considers Richard Harris supporting for C...If Louis considers Richard Harris supporting for Cry, the Beloved Country (which I could totally buy) I REALLY hope he gets reviewed.Michael McCarthyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08683805466760495934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2457552600380761837.post-26711217980301877992015-06-09T13:48:03.177-04:002015-06-09T13:48:03.177-04:00As far as I can tell very few actors can do one wi...As far as I can tell very few actors can do one without sounding like a tool. Sharlto Copley's attempt at it in Maleficent is the most recent butchering, though the worst I've heard is always going to be chronic overactor Christopher Eccelston in G.I. Joe.
