In Reply to: "intelligently writen dialog" ???????? posted by EdM on April 7, 2005 at 12:42:47:
I think that vulgarity can be written intelligently. It was crude. But very funny. When I say intelligently written, I mean the the dialog struck me as being authentic for the situation. Things that real people would say under the circumstances.Case in point: The scene where Owen and Roberts are in the aquarium. Typical convention would have them both confused, and drag the misunderstanding beyond all bounds of realism. I thought that the scene was handled very well. Two intelligent people getting to the core of the problem, so that the meeting did not become schtick.
I never thought Portman played thirteen. I thought she played her stated age. I do not think that she was trying to play thirty. She is in London, nowhere to live, no marketable skills, so she strips. I not claim to be an expert on the stipping industry, but it seems to me that there is more of a market for twenty year old strippers than thirty year old strippers. Where I thought that she did a good job was in the range of emotions that she was asked to convey. From desperate, to madly in love, to disappointed, to angry, to jealous. Her emotional arc was subtantially wider than any other actor in the film. I found her performance to be surprising, given that I have found most of her previous roles rather boring, and her earlier films purpose being to break her as the next big thing.
