Ellen Page in Hard Candy, Evan Rachel Wood in Thirteen, Joseph Gordon-Levitt in Mysterious Skin, Ryan Gosling in Half Nelson.<br /><br />More recently it would be Bradley Cooper. I never thought of him as anything other than eye candy until I saw him in Silver Linings Playbook. Then it was like a light bulb went off in my head and said "Hey! He can act!"Brittani Burnhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07975067259283007280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8073025888325415158.post-50057584834544043852013-03-06T06:14:47.254-05:002013-03-06T06:14:47.254-05:00As much as I was obsessed with Moulin Rouge and Ew...As much as I was obsessed with Moulin Rouge and Ewan McGregor's character in it, I think I truly fell for his genius in acting when I saw Trainspotting.<br />Also Jesse Eisenberg in The Social Network.Nikhathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10379713171889712078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8073025888325415158.post-6332828501207133742013-03-06T01:46:44.148-05:002013-03-06T01:46:44.148-05:00Hmm...sometimes!

I remember I was watching a TV show here called The Hollowmen, and I was struck by the lead actor and thought 'need to watch more of him' and now he's gotten quite well known here! <br />Apart from that, it's never reeeally happened to me. I might see someone in something, then see them in something else at random and think to myself 'They're doing quite well for themselves!'Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00175638828147935702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8073025888325415158.post-61697706106193605602013-03-05T23:00:24.944-05:002013-03-05T23:00:24.944-05:00For me, the only time this really happens is child...For me, the only time this really happens is child actors. When a young performer shows a natural feel for film, I tend to follow them to see if they can sustain it. Anna Paquin, Natalie Portman, Osment, Culkin... some are successful, some not. Curious to see what happens with Wallis after her Oscar nod. <br /><br />Where I really get struck is more on the directing side. I can still remember seeing Boyle's Shallow Grave or Jackson's Dead Alive or Nolan's Memento and thinking I had to see what comes next. I'm currently dying to see what Duncan Jones does with Warcraft and hoping someone gives Christopher Smith a budget. 100 Years of Movieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05576004166082807745noreply@blogger.com
