Hilarious and uplifting, Arkin gives heroin-addict Grandpa depth and feeling with...shall we say...limited screen time. Worthy of an Oscar, just not in 2006. (Definitely of the nominees... Eddie Murphy my ass.)
94. ANNETTE BENING (American Beauty)
Finely frantic and simply narcotic.... a worthy nomination as Carolyn Burnham. She's like a trainwreck. Absolutely emotionally disturbed, yet somehow I found myself rooting for her.
93. NAOMI WATTS (King Kong)
Watts is breath-taking as Ann Darrow. Her eyes sparkle with confusion, love, and determination all throughout the 3 hour fest- - an astonishing feat, considering she emoted to a greenscreen.
92. JESSE L. MARTIN (Rent)
Law and Order regular Martin brings a great feeling of sensitivity in the role of rambunctious Tom Collins. His anarchist-driven mind and love for Angel drive the supporting characters all the way till the end.
91. WILSON JERMAINE HEREDIA (Rent)
Can't seperate Collins & Angel, can ya? Heredia is fantastic as the eccentric drag queen Angel Dumott Schunard and utterly heartbreaking as an AIDS-victim. Deprived of an Oscar nomination, to say the least.
Clip From 'RENT': Today 4 U.
More tomorrow.
