Well, to be perfectly honest, despite my preference for Revolutionary Road over The Reader as a film, I think Kate's performance in The Reader wasn't necessarily better, but award worthy. April Wheeler is relatable and its easy to sympathize and even empathize with her. We've all felt trapped at some point, and while she reacts a little extreme, she is almost a martyr type of character. Hannah is an SS guard. While The Reader is a love story at heart, it is painful to sympathize with Hannah, but you do. You feel bad for her, you understand her. For an actor to play such a round, developed character takes serious skill. she had to take this love affair with a 15 year old boy, and strip away any sense of wrong doing or him being taken advantage of; and make the audience believe their love affair was just that. And--make them feel bad, and even understand why someone would join the SS. she deserves the oscar. And its not Renee-ish. At all.

Kate Moss. Hmm. well she already has a kid, who is pretty young, so maybe she decided she wanted another. Maybe she's off the blow. Let's give her the benefit of the doubt.

So, I saw "He's Just Not That Into You," tonight. I really liked it, personally, I found it very realistic, obviously with some extreme measures thrown in for comedic value, and while it was predictable, it was definitely enjoyable. Not to spoil the movie, but Jennifer Connelly always seems to be playing someone on the wrong side of a love affair, or getting cheated on by a husband who is slightly not as hot as her. Is she just destined for that part? I like her, I just think she is always playing the same character.

As is Scar Jo, always plays the whore stealing someone else's man. God, she is annoying.
