When someone says “gifted actor” I hear “weirdo psychopath”
It’s a pattern.
Where is the gift?
A regular actor is fine. Keanu Reaves, Gary Sinise.. there are good actors.
But when someone says “gifted” I get an idea of what they really mean.
They mean Denzel. An actor who can play both “The Equalizer” and the lead in “Fences”. Might be the best living actor.
