/me thought he was in Movies & TV forum
He is usually watchable, but rarely any better than "good". Having the ability to fade into the background is not something actors usually aspire to do. Ever see De Niro stand back to make others look "better"? He is memorable in every one of his films. How about Nickolson? Eastwood? Hanks? No matter if the character they are playing is timid or bold, they are memorable. They are always compatible with the other actors, but never fad into the background.
Fraser has been in so many bad movies where he was the lead, that he is in serious need of redemption. He has not been able to pull that off by lurking in the shadows (MOL)in serious roles. I still think he needs to pull something off like
Seven Pounds and be
the guy for the role.
BTW, it's ok to discuss movies in this thread because
we are awesome!
And responses bump the thread, so EVERYONE can have the "love" they deserve.
