award of the year.
One can be disciplined and a terrible actor. How much discipline does it take to sculpt Ahhnee's or Sly's bodies?
How about the courage of all these aging actors repeatedly going under the knife to maintain more youthful looks?
How many hours each day did Charlize spend under the makeup artist's fingers for "Monster"?
Who cares?
It's the performance that matters and not the hype of the studio in showing how "committed" the actor is and how much sacrifice.
The guy who wakes up at four a. m. to drive through icy, dark streets to a minimum wage job... now THAT'S commitment and discipline.
