Didn't like the movie but Downy WAS hilarious in that role. I'm surprised such a Hollywood outsider could move into commerical films so successfully.

Why? I, along with billions of people, derive great pleasure from movies and music and many of these artists whom are celebrated, deserve to be.
We arent put on earth to enjoy it, we are here to prepare the way.
Ummm... I don't think this is the right thread for you.

I'm surprised the black community didn't start hollering about his turn at "blackface". Poor Paula Deen, a celebrity cook in America, has seen her entire empire crumble because she admitted to once using the "N" word. She was just being honest, unlike every other celebrity who you can bet your seven plantation slaves has also used the same word (and worse) but would never admit it.

There are some celebrities like Seinfeld's Kramer and Mel Gibson who had their racist rantings recorded and deserved what they got but Paula Deen hadn't used the word against a black person and hadn't intended it as an insult. She was really being punished because she wanted to have a plantation wedding with black ushers. So WHAT?

Back on the subject of my OP, I think stars like Meryl Streep and Maggie Smith (if she's still alive) will continue to get ir create great roles for older women. I have a feeling Cher might make a comeback in movies. If you don't believe me, look at Sandra Bullock, who couldn't get arrested ten years ago. In the last four years she has had four films gross over $150 million at the US domestic box office. That is brilliant, especially for a woman of her age. Considered a poor man's Julia Roberts in the 90's, she won the role of a Southener in "The Blind Side" after Roberts turned it down (to play in one of her obscure, uncommercial flops she has continuously made in the last decade) and hasn't looked back since.

Halle Berry won an Oscar a decade ago - today she still looks great but can't find a good movie role. On the subject of Oscars, I think Oprah has it in the bag as Best Supporting Actress for "The Butler" although Sharon Stone playing the mum of a porn star might be in the running. I don't know if Nicole Kidman will be in the running for the Oscar next year or the year after for "Grace of Monaco" but the trailer looks great - so different to the trailer of "Diana" which looks like tabloid trash. Naomi Watts looks, and is, too old to play Diana and one of the few aspects of her appearance they could have got exactly right - her hair - they didn't. Watta is so over-rated as an actress. 🙂
