Although he's fighting the 'right fight' he's also a large part of the problems that occur and, considering it's mainly only about those two characters, that ensures you have to identify with Plame. Watts performance is needed to make sure this is the case and, as you say, she does a fine job in solidifying the film's position.Sam Turnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05696602364349746693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4685634083080876125.post-22902642498837249642011-08-17T04:34:45.913+01:002011-08-17T04:34:45.913+01:00Yeah this is a good film and one of the top three ...Yeah this is a good film and one of the top three of 2011 for me so far. Naomi Watts is always damn good. Not only is she a mega-babe which brings me to her films every time, but she is one of the pre-eminent actresses of our generation.<br /> I've always liked Penn even though he is a dick, but for a dick he can sure act! <br /> The subject matter is important and I thought fantstically dealt with. When I statrted watching it though I wondered if having Penn and Watts together again was a good idea after 21 Grams. Fortunately there was no residual feeling from that collaboration.<br /> I certainly felt my sympathies pulled towards Watts' character. At times I was actually cursing in the theatre at the injustices she endured!BRENThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15953231992674091002noreply@blogger.com
