Claire Dane not right for the role


Dane has slightly large and ungainly facial features, and when combined with that hair her face didn't match at all. Looked like a bad wig, and unnatural. I was a bit disappointed. Expected more from a 'star'. The Victoria character was a lot more naturally beautiful. Dane does have that doe-eye look though, which conveyed the star's purity and innocence, so I'll give her credit for that.

She was fantastic. Claire Danes was what made the movie work for me.

On which planet would Claire Danes have "slightly large and ungainly facial features?"

She looked great in this movie and pulled off the part wonderfully.

Yes, she's no match for Michelle Pfeiffer but 1) Who is? and 2) Michelle Pfeiffer gets the play the villain which is so much more fun than the good guy, it's not a fair comparison.

It's spelled Raymond Luxury Yacht, but it's pronounced 'Throat-Warbler Mangrove'

Claire Danes is right for any role.

Or in other words: she is butt-ugly and her acting consists of two face expression. At least she was cheap I guess.

Homeland fans will probably curse me out, but Danes is a very over-the-top, overrated actress. Pretty? Very. Good at acting? Not at all.

However, I think Sienna Miller is also a weak actress; better than Danes, but still not good enough to carry a movie.

I don't agree. I think she is perfect for the role and she is beautiful. Miller is just too much blaaaehh...
