Still, I thought the movie was very pretty to look at.Anonymoushttp://thechicagolibrary.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14626381454085139.post-42528535439692678522012-02-24T01:33:32.693+01:002012-02-24T01:33:32.693+01:00I feel like Michelle deserved it far more last yea...I feel like Michelle deserved it far more last year for Blue Valentine over Natalie Portman, so I am truly hoping she pulls the upset this year for MWWM.

I think that the way she was able to express all the fragility of Marilyn Monroe with just one look, with just her eyes, like after she messes up the scene with Dame Sybil, she's just brilliant in every way and I can't stop imagining how brilliant she would have been if the film had had a better screenplay. I wanted to see more and more of her. Branagh was perfect as well in my opinion. I feel she's a billion times better than Viola Davis, but that's just my opinion, I completely respect yours.

She certainly has several very good moments, but the film's inability to choose a topic frankly really stops her from doing more with the part.Louis Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07933180959140340196noreply@blogger.com
