Acting crazy + nudity does NOT mean Oscar for Kiera, escpecially in a film as twisted as this is likely to be. That\’s the kind of cynical, ignorant, dismissive talk you get from people who would rather be watching a Jimmy Cameron film than something worthwhile. Cronenberg is the kind of director that the Academy predictably, and unfortunately, hates. I will go on record as saying that this film, no matter how great it might prove to be, will not win ANY major awards.

1. Kiera Knightley + nudity = \”One for the 7:00 of A Dangerous Method, please.\”

2. I don\’t know who this \”Jimmy Cameron\” is that you referreing too, but I assume it\’s some lame filmmaker who puts out lousy movies, and not James Cameron, whose excellent films are most certainly very worthwhile.

I\’m not trying to claim there\’s any direct connection, but the characters, setting and story are very evocative of Terence Malick\’s unmade script \”The English Speaker\”.

Everyone in the audience hated it….OSCAH!!!!

Definitely interested in this but it just seems way too dark and f\’ed up to get legit awards traction.

This was posted to boards too: \”By the way, I thought the movie was exquisite. Viggo Mortensen(with maybe the exception of The Road and A History of Violence),Keira Knightly,and Michael Fassbender all do their best work ever in this.Not to mention some blazing chemistry between the last two,the movie was surprisingly tender at the end because of this. I haven\’t seen all of Michael\’s work,but he delivers an intense performance. Keira\’s screen presence cannot be denied in this. She had the bulk of the material to work with and she gives an emotionally shattering performance. Viggo, well,we can always expect great stuff from him. He is not featured as much as the other two however. I heard it\’s playing at Venice,be prepared for some awesome reviews to come out of there. Also can\’t forget about Cronenberg,who makes the idea of psychoanalysis so intense and interesting on the big screen. There is some sadomasochism(s&m) in the film, be prepared to see some butts and breasts.\” http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1571222/board/thread/182958194?d=182958194#182958194

Sounds similar to ashley Judd\’s scene in bug, descrptipn/ reaction wise, which floored me. I hope this scene can come close to that one.
