I really like what Harvey Weinstein says about Daniel in GWTDT.
OSCAR Q&A: Harvey Weinstein On ‘The Artist,’ Dueling Best Actress Contenders, And Indie Film In The VOD Age
I never expected The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo to be so romantic. The original Swedish movie was good, but this was better because Rooney Mara’s Lisbeth Salander broke my heart. To me, the key is how great Daniel Craig is. If you don’t love him, Salander doesn’t work at all. He’s so much more powerful than the Swedish actor and he’s the center strength and selflessness of the movie, so when he walks off with Robin Wright, I’m thinking, why am I welling up at Dragon Tattoo? That’s Fincher’s great skill.

This guy is important, so this is good news. If he likes Daniel, he might come up with something for him, that worth doing,Sylvia's girl wrote:I really like what Harvey Weinstein says about Daniel in GWTDT.

The top notch acting in the Weisz/Craig/Spall 'Betrayal' is emotionally true, often v funny and its beautifully staged with filmic qualities..

I was just going to quote that "center strength and selflessness of the movie". Without daniel, lisabeth has no one to do her oneliners off, daniel is the striaghtman, a thankless task, but without him, I dont think lisabeth's character would work, i would not have given much sympathy to lisabeth's character, because she is hard, with no social skills, and someone in real life u would tell in no uncertain terms to go get stuffed or buck up. Just the way she treated the librarian, no manners, or empathy to get along. Glad to see someone recognises the that fact that daniel did a great job!

I think, he did a too good job again. He disappears into his character and makes it seem effortless, like a non acting job almost.honeyjes wrote:Nice sentiment, and kind of strange that Mara gets an Oscar nod but DC wasn't good enough to get official recognition.

Well sure, but it seems, some people are missing that fact - otherwise he would have been nominated for something. I dunno, but I seriously believe, that his acting is of the sort, that it doesn't seem like acting at all. Many great performances are great, because you notice their strength and the way, an actor makes that charaxcter his own. With Daniel - he just IS that person and it seems like the most natural thing...but I am biased, VERY muchhoneyjes wrote:But isn't that the point, when it's good acting.

I think your right, it looks effortless, but he will be recognised eventually, and get that oscar, just awaiting the right role.Germangirl wrote:Well sure, but it seems, some people are missing that fact - otherwise he would have been nominated for something.
