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.

Yeah i was thinking about her...she kinda fade into oblivion. Williams is great in Manchester By The Sea tough. Her scene with Casey Affleck is the best part in a dull movie.tragabigzanda wrote:Poor Carey Mulligan is probably going to spend her whole career in the shadow of Michelle Williams.

Re: Post Random Movie-Related Thoughts You Have
If you like Tom Hardy in Locke, try David Oyelowo in Nightingale. Both great movies living and dying entirely on the back of a single great actor. I would say that Nightingale and Oyelowo aren't quite as good as Locke and Hardy, but---to be fair---that is a very high bar. It's a very good movie, though, and he's great in it.
Please consider voting for me

Yeah I'd say they're pretty equal if anything. Both have a really solid body of work in a nice mix of films over the past decade.durdencommatyler wrote:Plenty of room for both of them.tragabigzanda wrote:Poor Carey Mulligan is probably going to spend her whole career in the shadow of Michelle Williams.

Probably would be ranked in the bottom 10 if I ever watched them: Moonlight, The Birth of a Nation, La La Land, Deadpool, Captain America: Civil War, Nocturnal Animals
Potential for top 20 when I get around to it: Paterson
