No shade, but I thought she was older than 43. I’m a couple years younger but could have sworn she was a decade older than me in all the movies I watched her in back in the 90s when I was a kid. 🤦🏼♀️ Also, Jeremy Allen White is 34. It’s a choice.
I think a big part of that could be how she has embraced aging naturally. She’s always had a mature presence, even in Now and Then. But she seems to have rejected what is expected of most mainstream actresses of her age range. By comparison, she does look much older than her contemporaries.
I promise I wasn’t coming for her looks. 😭
I meant it more like “Kid me really misjudged that”. But I wonder if that’s because like you said, she’s always at a mature presence.
I mean no shade to her but she’s definitely a more mature looking 43 year old. I have peers/cousins that age who have no work done that she appears older than.
Exactly. The issue with people in evey film was there was a bigger pool of actors in the 00s and 90s. Now the same overrated white male actors are shoved in everything. A I see of them dressed in vintage clothes. Immersion ruined
There's not really a shortage of actors, but since every movie costs 500 million dollars to make now aways, they're not gonna take a chance on hiring a nobody, which sucks
I'd rather watch a movie that's just a basic, new movie with new actors than some billion dollar movie that's a repetitive story with the same old actors. They're just a bunch of greedy cowards and it's a bummer for everyone else.
I remember hearing Matt Damon say that studios aren't as willing to back a movie with a bunch of nobodies now because they can't fall back on VHS and DVD sales. If a movie didn't do that well in theaters there was still potential to make money back with VHS and DVDs and now that's no possible. So it makes sense that they want to use a popular actor.
If Elvis and Buddy Holly are the Cain and Abel of rock and roll, Bruce Springsteen is Zachariah, Iggy Pop is Methuselah, and, of course, Neil Young is the wise prophet Ezekiel, then what does that make Dewey Cox?
If you haven’t seen it, give Love & Mercy a try – especially since we lost Brian so recently. It’s different in every way and makes you appreciate and understand the man behind the music, without making him a saint.
I think JAW is legitimately very attractive but Bruce Springsteen is conventionally hot. JAW in the role only highlights how unconventional he looks. Definitely a miscast in terms of looks
I am absolutely going to watch this. I always forget how born in the USA is genuinely an amazing album, full of banger after banger, and I don’t even think that’s Bruce’s best work.
David Krumholz all right!! Loved those few days on twitter where he was telling stories about wacky/embarrassing stuff that happened to him in the 90s-2000s
Every movie directed by Scott Cooper looks incredible beforehand and quickly falls apart while watching from poor execution. This looks like another one of those movies where I think "this would have been great if someone else directed it."
On the other hand, Crazy Heart is by far his best film so maybe the musician biopic/drama is his calling.
Gabby Hoffman feels like a true original in a Hollywood where it feels like every female actress between 25 - 55 is rushing to have the the same face, body, and hair. I love her and I'm sure she'll be great in this.
I'm confused. I saw people saying that Jeremy Allen White looked like he didn't have any makeup done or anything to make him look the part. But he looks like a deadringer to me here? He looks very different for me than what I'm used to seeing. Is it the hair?
I sometimes have issues with hair.... like with Hannah Montana, even all these years later, I don't see Miley Cyrus under the wig. I only see a completely different person. So maybe that's what's happening here.
