By the way, his character’s name is the same as a famous poet, John Donne, and he got a reference to Attila the Hun in, during the jury discussions, which he had done not too long ago. Amusing. You go, Gerry!

Waiting for Coriolanus and Machine Gun Preacher!

Bought the jury DVD and watched it tonight. Thought it was good. Hollywood cant do that kind of thing well anymore. Big problem though with my favorite boy, Gerard! He stuck out like a sore thumb! Did a wonderful acting job, but he was way too gorgeous, better looking than all the women. It was destracting seeing this very beautiful man standing about a head taller and broader than anyone else in the room.

It has to be difficult to be a serious actor and look like that; like beautiful women with talent are often treated as just a property. Granted that was 8 years ago, but still, he looks pretty darned good for 41. Kudos to his mom for raising a good kid.

I always think of him as my beautiful, randy, intelligent nephew!

Recommend the series, though. Bonnie, aka, Oldbutnotdead!

Just watched the movie; intended to spend the weekend on it but couldn’t help but watch it straight through. It was that good and Gerry’s character was brilliantly played (as are all of his characters). He was so believable that he wasn’t playing Johnnie, he was Johnnie. I found this at DVD set my local library, so before you spend hours trying to find it on the internet, try just ordering it at your library. That’s also a good place to find a lot of his older / earlier work. They’re ALL worth watching.

This is my fourth favorite movie. I found this movie very compelling. I really got into it, I was trying to work out who killed this kid along with the characters. LOL I love movies that suck you in to them. I loved Gerard’s performance in this I am certain him being a person who is an alcoholic in recovery, this role touched a nerve. I loved how this character was so real in his raw vulnerability, insecurity, and resigned acceptance of the road ahead as an alcoholic in recovery. I loved the actor who played the sponsor, that was a great character. This is a another movie I liked from start to finish and really got into all the characters and was really invested in the outcome of their stories. Great movie!
