I've been hearing good things about this film for song long now (even before Ms. Portman started collecting awards for her performance), and I finally got to see it last night. I admit, I was kind of "off the bandwagon" for a bit after Portman's acceptance speech upon receiving the Golden Globe for Best Actress. She is such a talented actor -- I've always been a fan of her work and have always appreciated that she tends to fly under the radar unlike most Hollywood starlets. Unfortunately, her "Golden moment," or prenatal, hormonal, turrets-like outburst exclaiming, "He TOTALLY wants to sleep with me," kind of swayed me. I cringed. Let's take a look at that again, shall we??
Portman's speech -- okay, so it's obviously been embellished, but it's still fun!
Anyway, after a bit of time passed, I have forgiven Natalie (rumor has it, she's relieved!). She was incredible in the role and it was clear how much she prepared, trained and disciplined herself. Impressive. I wish a little bit of that would rub off on me! Perhaps it has -- It didn't hit me until later that evening that I had worn my old Moschino T-shirt that reads "VOULEZ VOUS COUCHER AVEC MOI?" Ironic? Subliminal? Perhaps! But, I can guarantee that I won't be going on National television to announce who does!
