[strobbo]

[diogo92ch]

She is so shy anda a great actress...

[kookooboy]

She's much different than I expected. I love her sense of humor

[summerease]

She was worried about getting the part or getting fired and she was the best part of the movie

@Waszma Not as a Actor's Studio student, but according to Wikipedia she had some lessons with Lee Strasberg when she was young - that definitely means something. Pity she's doing such small roles these days -_-

[Waszma]

@Soriehlam Wow, that's weird. I wonder what he had against her. You have any idea if she's a "method actor?" She sure seems to be. As far as her acting skills go, I'd put her up against anyone. BTW, if she peruses Youtube she is definitely aware of her ardent fans. I need to get more of her stuff. I liked her a lot in "The Hudsucker Proxy."

@Waszma 'bout Vic Morrow, I read somewhere (not on wikipedia) that he willed to her only $ 100, and all other things were at her sister Carrie Ann. I wonder what impact this has had on her head, after all the suffering .. Maybe all problematic characters she plays are a form of self punishment for something ... I do not know, it's just my theory.

[Soriehlam]

@Waszma Yes, there are many beautiful actresses I love, like Julianne Moore, Juliette Binoche, Carroll Baker, but JJL has a luminous element that is hard to explain .. she's not the best nor the most beautiful, nor with the most sex appeal, but no other actress moves me as she do. And yea, she did not know we exist and adore her, too bad ^ ^

[Waszma]

@Soriehlam Your taste in women is superb. Apparently, she has the same effect on many. I wonder if she knows it....she must lol. Never seen her in a role where she wasn't compelling, she just has something you rarely, if ever see. Shame that she had to endure the tragedy of her dad's terrible death.

[Soriehlam]

@Waszma Completely agree w/ u. I feel the same kind of attraction/affection for her. She's not only beautiful, or has a sexy body, it's also a special kind of charisma that makes me near love her. Discovered her since Buried Alive and since then I never get tired of watching her.

I have decided that Jennifer Jason Leigh is AWESOME
