Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

Man I wish you'd shut up...

...about who's pretty and who's not. What matters is character, integrity, and substance. Not if you happen to think someone is pretty or not. You can express all your opinions about movies and how good performances are, etc, but if you'd just stop adding these adolescent touches it would be appreciated by me and I'll bet by a bunch of others.

If all you can think about when watching Honeysuckle Weeks in her Foyle's role is that she's not pretty enough then I say you lack the basic ability to accept a drama on it's own terms. This means your opinions are suspect because you get hung up on things that don't matter in terms of the drama itself.

Are you truly unaware that in many dramas a performer's natural beauty is intentionally maksed because it's better for the character that way? Charlize Theron's "Monster" is certainly a good example.

What is it they say..."beauty is in the eye of the beholder?" The most significant thing in the apprehension of beauty is the predisposition of the subject, not the object. If you lack beauty within yourself it's harder to see it manifested in others.
