Hey don't hate on Natalie Portman in Black Swan! She was great in that movie and deserved a win (even if some people did deserve it a bit more) Rosie is fantastic in this film, and, having seen Julianne Moore in Still Alice, I can firmly state that she will not win the Oscar. She deserves to win, but Julianne Moore simply turned in the better performance. But I do agree that she was layered and completely stole the screen from Ben Affleck every second they had a scene together. Hell, she stole the screen from pretty much everyone! And the way that she truly sunk into the character of Amy Dunne post-death-faking at the hotel place truly demonstrates what a chameleon she is. My dream performance from her would be like an angry, venomous housewife with under-the-surface anger who spews brilliant and devastating lines at people. Maybe directed by a Roman Polanski (almost like Carnage but good) or something. I can't wait for more great directors to discover her!! Rosamund Pike FTW!!!!
