A great film, a great performance. <br /><br />While we're on the topic of the Academy recognizing comedy, thank heavens they also got it right with Kevin Kline for A Fish Called Wanda in 1989.Derek Armstronghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13750747272647975591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17951989.post-64958808628275037352010-07-13T15:54:25.336-05:002010-07-13T15:54:25.336-05:00If you'd been blogging in 1992, I'm not su...If you'd been blogging in 1992, I'm not sure your campaign would have reached many people. Although maybe they would do whatever you said, because you would clearly be from the future.Rory Larryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18368929505838549463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17951989.post-35891210238926861912010-07-13T10:28:58.381-05:002010-07-13T10:28:58.381-05:00Helena Bonham Carter.

I watched that and "Remains of the Day" and "Room With A View" all in one week long, long ago when I decided I needed to get up to speed with this James Ivory fellow. That was a heavy week.<br /><br />And so glad to hear of the support for Ms. Tomei. She rocks.Nick Priggehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17895803287589438170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17951989.post-39797243620123886592010-07-13T09:22:14.830-05:002010-07-13T09:22:14.830-05:00See, now I have to correct you because the best su...See, now I have to correct you because the best supporting performance of 1992 (and the entire decade, perhaps) was Helena Bonham Carter in <i>Howards End</i>. But no biggie, Marisa is a close second. So funny, so on point and just down right excellent. Easily one of the smartest Academy decisions in the 90s.Andrew K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01104647944747041277noreply@blogger.com
