Good Actor or not?

[BurtReynolds]

She has this innocent or guileless way of talking that I find disarming and endearing. She's a bad actor precisely because she can't lie, and that makes her good in a lot of roles.

Or is she playing 5D chess and she is a great liar, and this is exactly what she had planned?

Lots of layers here. Levels upon levels of acting. Moves and counter-moves. She could very well be the greatest actress of all time. Who can say really?

I agree, she delivers every line of every role like she’s about to cry, yes

[Farmer John]

It works well for some things. Like True Romance.

[LoathedVermin72]

True Romance generally sucks so her performance fits

She's a bad actor precisely because she can't lie

That's a gross and fundamental misunderstanding of what acting is.

Hahaha WHAT

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Two titans of awful takes are about to lock horns. Get the popcorn.

[VinylGuy]

Patricia Arquette rules.

Nightmare On Elm Street 3, Lost Highway and Stigmata should be obligatory to everyone.

[Ello Sailor]

I've been thinking about it, and True Romance has too many banger performances to be crappy. You guys are wrong and should feel bad.

[LoathedVermin72]

Plenty of bad movies have good performances in them. No one is disputing there are great performances in there.

[Ello Sailor]

Just admit you're a dumb bitch and we can move on.

[LoathedVermin72]

That’s not a very good argument, Soma

[tommy]

Just admit it, LV.

[BurtReynolds]

Remember when Christian Slater decided he was Jack Nicholson and his career went in the shitter? Was that before or after True Romance? I can't remember.
