Thanks for not panning it like so many do these days!

I didn't see much wrong with Fonda but maybe I wasn't paying attention. I will forever remember the scene with Bruce Dern towards the end where, for a brief second, he just explodes. I can't think of another scene of rage so honest and pure in any other movie. It's a moment to cherish.The Taxi Driverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04352371911592068643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37163585.post-24552277550523124662010-07-05T23:39:05.955-07:002010-07-05T23:39:05.955-07:00I guess the conclusion is: A good actress can'...I guess the conclusion is: A good actress can't fully develop a bad written character.Alex Constantinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09940311552608814201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37163585.post-18048662428779222762010-07-05T15:05:37.510-07:002010-07-05T15:05:37.510-07:00To her credit also, it was quite a brilliant touch...To her credit also, it was quite a brilliant touch of her to have the freezing hands in I think her last scene or it's the climax.<br /><br />It's so honest and believable. That's when we really get to somewhat grasp what's inside her. That's a very <i> true </i> scene and I love how she handles that.<br /><br />I just wished she lived up to that for the remaining time.Malcolmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08115141758436339101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37163585.post-66897797399595274692010-07-05T15:00:35.273-07:002010-07-05T15:00:35.273-07:00That's the problem!
Her character was written...That's the problem!<br /><br />Her character was written to be dull, the men did better, she looked bored, way too comfortable in her character that you feel that she's not doing any effort anymore, sex scene is emotionally good because it felt honest.<br /><br />A performance with very mixed bag.<br /><br />2.5 or 3 for me.Malcolmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08115141758436339101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37163585.post-63786956008343129792010-07-05T12:21:45.510-07:002010-07-05T12:21:45.510-07:00janefonda.com
