Loading...Saving...
I was incredibly happy to learn that Forest Whitaker got an Oscar for his performance as Amin, because it was a truly incredible portrayal, but I do think that James' performance in this movie was kind of overlooked because so much focus was put on Forest... I definitely think that James deserved at least a nomination for his performance in this movie - and for his acting in Atonement too. That's twice he's been snubbed by the Academy...

They say he's done bad things, but I don't think he did. All he did was sleep with that mans wife. Back then it was a big deal, but still. It shouldn't be something worth dying for. Sure his character was selfish and naive. But that doesn't make him a bad person just a pathetic one.

He didn't do it directly, but he did cause quite a bit of suffering with his actions. He advised Amin to do all of these things that helped Amin stay in power, and he did those things because he WAS a very self-absorbed and naive character.

Brilliant interview. I love him from 1:45-1:50. "And then he killed my uncle."

his scottish is so cute! he tones it down in movies (or takes it away completely), so I hadn't really heard it until I saw an interview for the first time today, but sooo cute!

This is the first time I've seen this interview, but if I have anything to say about it, it won't be the last. James is so...well, yes, hot, sexy, adorable...sure, that goes without saying. But vids like this always stagger me anew with his amazing intelligence and insight. Thank you, thank you, thank you for posting this! BTW, Qwerty, great collection you have here. Think I'll be comin' back...

There's some real moral high ground taken there. I don't think people realize what a difference it made to the film. It, literally, would have been a completely different film without him.

Qwerty!
FANTASTIC INTERVIEW! Thank you so much for this. He's talked before about disliking the screenplay upon first reading and how Kevin MacDonald agreed to let him work out his character as part of the deal....but to thoroughly inform that script and change the more "great, white hope" elements of it into something far more powerful, resonant and representative...It's not a detail or a nuance in a performance...

Welcome nez, I completely agree.
