Christian Bale best actor for American Psycho? That was a good performance, but in my opinion, Ed Harris was the man.
Ed Harris was probably hurt by the film's availability. Unlike the Academy, our crew did not receive tapes of the films, and I know that in my humble town of Tulsa, Pollock has yet to open, throwing him out of the running for my vote.
Nice to see Marcia Gay Harden grab an award though. I may not have seen Pollock yet, but she was terrific in my vote for the Coen Brothers' best film, Miller's Crossing.
Shalom, y'all!
