In Reply to: After things like Titanic, Gangs Of New York and much of The Aviator I thought Leonardo Dicaprio had lost it posted by sjb on December 17, 2006 at 21:14:55:
I don't think he has anything on Tim Robbins, Sean Penn, Johnny Depp or Don Cheadle. If I had to pick a best all around American actor I think I would have to go with Sam Rockwell. His problem is that he is too good. Chameleons have a harder time becoming celebraties. As for the Oscar this year I'd probably go with Forrest Whitaker. I would actually put Christian Bale up there as well for The Prestige but for some reason this movie is recieving no awards buzz.
Follow Ups:
The Prestige is a discomfitting film, and a genre movie to boot, so I don't see it as Oscar fodder, depsite its merits.Bale is quite talented, although I assume you know he's a Brit, not American.
Forrest Whitaker has been brilliant for years - I hope he'll get a nom this year.
Depp...needs to get back into some better films.
The prodigiously talented Robbins had a good year but like Sean Penn, he can get over the top rather easily.
and think that TR did a great job as the South African anti terror guy and that FW did a great job as Idi Amin (although I felt LD played a more convining African in some ways) but for me, right now Dicaprio is at the top of his (and the) game.
Don't piss on my shoe and tell me it's raining.
