Re: I may be a Bambi, but I wanna slap him around too!

Jim Campilongo,

Yes, Jeff Bridges for me, never goes astray and he takes roles that suit him so that even when there are other weaknesses, he pulls it along with his presence. "Fabulous Baker Boys too". He's a low-key actor and his style and career reminds me of Robert Duvall and Gene Hackman- quiet and confident acting, and good role choices. But their professional integrity and lack of self-aggrandizing carrer building makes their career rise more slowly and steadily- no Paris Hilton sudden renown for doing absolutely nothing except run around shallowly arrogant to those poor losers without hotel fortunes- yet still imply oral sex is avaiable at popular prices. I digress.

You're quite right, Amanda Plummer, the object of William's romantic apsirations, and Bridges long-suffering, big hair, shirt skirted girlfriend do a lot, and William's on screen time is usually brief enough not to reach tolerance levels. Gilliam's direction and photography can have film school and cartoon qualities, but those are usually acceptable, affectionate movie homages.

"The Fisher King" has a suprising depth and only goes over the top when it pushes the story.

Cheers,

Bambi B
