A completely annoying show that will begin airing on Showtime this Monday. I actually found it painful to watch at times. My review is up on Slant Magazine.
I'm not interested in the show. I just wanted to say that I don't think Laura Linney was bad per se in either "Love, Actually" or "Mystic River". I think the problems in both cases was in the writing. But I get what you mean.
Initially, in my review, I had a part about her being the cilantro of the acting world. She's fine to some people and repellent to others. I actually find her a little repellent, even when she's good.
But I will agree to disagree and say that in some movies she projects her emotions way too forcefully. Bad acting, in my books.
