Otherwise though it doesn't seem there were that many obvious misses, and it would be hard to name another actor, maybe George Burns, who managed a resurgence so late in life. <br /><br />Anonymous:<br /><br />1.

This as he just turned up the action film to an extreme, that make most seem quite tame and lame by comparison. This in creating multiple fantastic sequences, that are both gritting, yet larger than life at the same time. Whether this be the hallway beat down, the final fight, the hiding in a corridor, Evans just makes brilliant sequences, where every step of it you real feel through such intelligent choices. Again this being such precise use, of a closeup, a long take, what have you to accentuate the combat in each instance in a way that few films have been able to do so. It is a pure action film in the sense where it would work entirely silent as Evans tells the story through that always cohesive and oh so compelling action.

I didn't love Jojo Rabbit or Marriage Story, but in both she gave some of the best acting I saw last year in both (especially in the latter of the two) and even made hopeful that she would win an Oscar. Hopefully she keeps it up, because right now I'm genuinely curious as to what she does next.Aidan Pittmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07705966296315184773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2457552600380761837.post-37001352524283011952020-04-19T22:07:26.252-04:002020-04-19T22:07:26.252-04:00Yet another performance that I might as well add t...Yet another performance that I might as well add to the list.<br /><br />Also, to chyme in on Louis' Natalie Portman-Scarlett Johansson comparsion, I always preferred Johansson as well. Before 2019, Portman may have had the greater heights in her career (Leon, Jackie and possibly Black Swan), but Johansson was certainly more consistent, and even her weakest turns weren't all that terrible. Of course with Jojo Rabbit and Marraige Story, Johansson has now bested Portman in that department.<br /><br />I would think of it this way; Johansson spent a lot of her career stuck with standard, undemanding (and at points, frankly oversexualized) roles, but has finally delivered very strong work in well written parts. Portman, meanwhile, has been offered comparatively better, more interesting characters for years, but has also squandered such roles more than her fair share of times; Case in point, "Closer".
