Actresses and Actors You Admire

Clooney was great as a hillbilly intellectual in 'Brother where are thou" Great music by Union Station in that movie also, Allison Krauss, Emmy Lou Harris, Gillian Welch, were fantastic in the songs they sang, Also Ry Cooder did a great job as Robert Johnson, but only on soundtrack.

Great music and they also played a lot of houses live, like Carnegie Hall and such.

Cooder has tapped into a lot of different styles, remember Talking Timbuktu ?
With the late great Ali Farka Toure?

O Brother, Where Art Thou? is a great film. A fascinating adaptation of Homer's The Odyssey.

Judi Dench is amazing. Others in this category include Maggie Smith (81 also) and Helen Mirren (70). Meryl Streep (66), too.

Helen Mirren and Meryl Streep are head and shoulders above their contemporaries
and I reckon Streep (66) just nicks it. She was amazing in the Iron Lady.

Apparently Maggie Smith stinks at Power Lifting.

You can tell it was a good film when 2 of our teenage sons watched it about 10 times🙂
