Keanu has a limited range, sure, but he can act. And winning an Oscar is a meaningless measure of an actors ability.
Gary Oldman doesnβt have one, and Gywneth Paltrow does for example.
Gary Oldman is a freak and I mean that in a good way. He's probably the best most diverse actor I've ever seen.
Daniel Day Lewis is the best. That prick went from My Left Foot to Last of the Mohicans. Can box and make farking shoes. Goat.

Am I the only person who thought his portrayal in Gangs of New York had the same character mannerisms, etc. in There Will Be Blood ?

no you're not , the two movies kind of blur into one in my memory.

@rancid-schnitzel I knew exactly where this was going as soon as I wrote it. He is a magnificent actor who on occasion hams the fuck out of his roles.

Good to see I'm not the only one who doesn't see the appeal of There Will Be Blood.
But he's fuckin' good in My Left Foot, In The Name of the Father and Lincoln. The Last of the Mohicans is one of my favourite movies, but I like the Michael Mann vibe. I could watch the last 10 mins repeatedly.

Daniel Day Lewis was a great actor up until Hams of New York and There Will Be Ham.
Which gave him one Oscar nomination and one Oscar. How you like them apples bitch?

He's authentic. He studied people and voices from that era. If that's ham, it's my dad's awesome farking Christmas ham.

That could be the best, or worst, euphemism ever.

I think we discussed the other day shitty movies and shitty movies that win oscars and the low worth of the award. One that stands out in my mind is Helen Hunt in as good as it gets, a very average movie apart from one line and I think Greg Kinnear got a nominations for it too.
That line
is In the movie, βAs good as it getsβ, Jack Nicholson, who plays a writer in the movie, is just leaving the publisher. The young female receptionist asks Nicholson a question.
Receptionist:βHow do you write women so well?β
Nicholson:
βI think of a man and I take away reason and accountability.β
