It was a foregone conclusion. I didn’t like the movie all that much, but DDL was a force of nature in it.
lol
The guy that played the preacher should have had a nod from the Academy too, IMO
I know, I don't understand why Travolta wears his hair like that. It's very unflattering. He has all his own hair, and it's nice hair. I'm puzzled why he doesn't wear it just a bit longer.
His wife Kelly Preston apparently still makes movies, according to imdb.com. I've never heard of most of them... maybe they're the kind that "go directly to DVD"...
Gracious.
And he’s the winner.
alrighty.
THANKS!
Now he has 2 oscars he can use as earrings ;)
Actually, I thought he lacked the gravitas for the part. Too whiny... but each to their own.
Very well at what? Keeping her genitalia covered?
Uh, Travolta is balding badly. What you see are some really bad plugs. There’s been photo evidence of it everywhere on the web.
I liked American Gangster, Eastern Promises and Clooney’s film as well.
30 Days of Night for horror!
The agent Ruth Webb died but I think it was before their time frame.
I like bald men. He should just let it go.
Thats true
I don’t know. I’ll see if I can find out later.
“Its like he is thumbing his nose at high fashion ...”
If so, BRAVO!
“Did you ever feel like the world was a black tuxedo and you were a pair of brown shoes?” (George Goebel)
I like bald men. He should just let it go.
Oh, ok, that’s cool. The effect was tinfoil hat nutter of the southland, but I’m hip!
LOL
YES!! I wanted either No Country or Will be Blood
Oh yeah, what’s up with that?
LOL, I didn’t see her.
ROFL the Coen brothers are funny.
