Jonah Hill in Moneyball is one you definitely missed. And Zach Galifianakis in Birdman may not be a serious movie per se, but it is a serious role that he knocked out of the park.

Sorry, but Rushmore and then The Royal Tennenbaums mined Murray\’s \’hangdog world-weariness\’ far more for pathos than laughs years before Lost in Translation, as perfect as that performance was.

thanks for another great article! Now, do the reverse! I was thinking of Nicole Kidman in "Just Go With It".

… and include Dramedies too.

The movie is rightly derided by many, but Emma Thompson\’s performance in Love Actually is pretty incredibly affecting.

Ray is not directed by Curtis Hanson, it was directed by Taylor Hackford.
