This morning I lost alot of respect for Kevin Spacey!
Hey Carl…I think many people feel the same way.
Hello Bruce,
Just watched “Elvis and Nixon”
Very very good picture, i like so much Rock and Roll and Elvis “the King”
Amazing actors, i go to the web just to see the pictures of those days with Richard Nixon and Elvis Presley and his gards …and in black and white….
Kevin Spacey Is always great in any part..so it Is always pleasure to see him in film or his great série TV.
Bye
Pierre
Hey Pierre…glad you liked Elvis and Nixon….if memory serves me correctly….Bob also really enjoyed that one. I agree Spacey is one of those performers that makes a movie better just by being in the movie. Good stuff.
Hey Chris your comment has me thinking I should start watching House of Cards right away. His return to the big screen has to be better than last year’s Nine Lives….now that was a bad movie. Though it did entertain my 8 and 10 year olds. I think Glengary Glen Ross is one of Stacey’s favorites as well….he got to work with two of his acting heroes in that one…Al Pacino and Jack Lemmon. Thanks for stopping by and thanks for the comment.
Hi
He must be one of the best actors of his generation. His list of films in the 90’s, LA Confidential, Usual Suspects, Seven, American Beauty and one of my favourites, Glengarry Glenross. Just a superb villain. But anything he has achieved on the big screen or the theatre has been truly surpassed by his role of Francis Underwood in House of Cards. It makes West Wing look like a Sunday School outing, and it is done so well that you wonder where the truth end and fantasy begins.
I’ve watched him on T.V. do great impersonations of Katharine Hepburn and Clint Eastwood. I hope he returns to the big screen in a big way soon. .
