So we saw Hollywoodland this week-end. It is actually the mashup of two movies. One, the George Reeves story that ends in suicide was GREAT! Ben Affleck was great. Diane Lane was so amazing I could not believe it was her. I mean we are talking whiplash changes that were are believable.
The other story is about Adrian Brody’s giant nose in close up. How he sticks it in where he shouldn’t. How it gets punched, bloodied and hit with chains. How when his ex-wife gets a new boyfriend, it gets out of joint. And, most importantly, how he can smell the truth.
To be honest, I have never been a giant fan of Adrian Brody’s giant nose.
You should see Hollywoodland on the big screen, where Diane Lane is luminescent and where Ben Affleck is tragic. Unfortunately, I think Adrian Brody’s giant nose in close up is best viewed in the comfort of your home, the small screen and the fast forward button.
