I watched Bobby on Saturday and was really impressed by the acting. Sharon Stone and Demi Moore gave outstanding performances, particularly Sharon Stone. I was really surprised how good they were.

I didn't know much about the movie before going to see it so it was a big surprise to see actors like Harry Belafonte and Lindsay Lohan onscreen.

Emilio Estevez did a great job with directing and writing the script. There were some really powerful scenes b/w Sharon Stone and William H. Macy who played a married couple in the movie.

Also, I liked Larry Fishburne's character as well. He plays the sage so well.....

Kudos to the actors, writers and editors of the film. The film editors should probably get an Oscar nomination. They did a great job at splicing(?) real life scenes of Robert Kennedy throughout the movie. The film's audience doesn't see Bobby Kennedy except for the back of his head and the vintage film clips of him. I liked the way they carried it off rather than allowing some ham to imitate Bobby....

Highly recommended!!!

I also saw this movie over the weekend, wasn't as good as I was hoping, but definetly still a very solid picture.

The acting is the most impressive part of this film IMO, Sharon Stone was BY AND FAR the major standout of the cast....her scenes were so powerful and so damn good, definetly the best work of her career and definetly oscar-worthy type of stuff.

Demi Moore and William H. Macy were also VERY good, but if an actor is going to get the Oscar nod from this film it will come in the form of Sharon Stone, who is undeniably good.

The writing is also pretty good in this film, it will probably get a screenplay nomination and MAYBE a directing nod. Best Picture and Best Supporting Actress are almost givens IMO.

    • What did you all think of Hogan/Patti compared to the stuff with Liza and Sonny? Did you buy anything about Sonny and Bela? Has a recast ever decentralized a character as much as Sherry's exit did with Liza? Or do you think that would have happened even if Sherry had stayed?
    •     I think the three comments pretty much summarize my thoughts. The green is not pleasant. I think I know where they were going with it, but it doesn't translate on screen.  The bar at Uptown is actually pretty good. It's my favorite part. I totally get it having an East Coast vibe. I used to frequent a place like it and while I wouldn't necessarily call it pretty...it was a bit Kitsch but it had a vibe. This place is lacking the vibe. I know it's not easy to hire extras, but even having a karaoke night in the background or live music would change the whole feel.  Vernon and Anita having breakfast there was a great idea. Another place besides the country club where they could talk. However, why were they using country club china at an establishment like Uptown. It just seems a bit confused. I don't understand what it's supposed to be. 
    • Add me to the list of people who like Tanisha Harper as Jordan I never understood any of the criticism of her, to be honest. She's gorgeous and she's solid in her role. Sounds like a soap staple to me.  
    • Thanks for the walk down Memory Lane!   (Can you imagine what the synopsis for 2024/2025 will look like 50 years from now?  It'll basically just be a flowchart of who was the CEO of which unseen corporation, lol.)  
    • Yes . Its time to get these folks outta their clothes lol.
    • To all the fans of Paul and Lauren on The Young and the Restless:

    • Leslie is extra but she's told the truth about what happened back then. They were in love, at least he led her to beleive they were. I never go the impression that she was crazy or a hot mess when they were involved. From the bits that we've heard, it seems more like she got bitter and jaded over the years but when they had their affair? She was all good   Ted shouldnt stress getting Eva anything. Like he just go her an apartment, no to mention a job. I think his continued attention and presence in her life mean more than material things he could buy   June definitely knows those kids. She was lying bc she doesnt want to answer what happened to said kids
    • It's very smart, even if I don't love the choice of content creators. And it's hilarious Daphnée keeps doing lives on Instagram, when she's admitted she isn't the best of them.
    • Tomlin's first stint was from May 1983 to March 1984 (11 months) when he left to become co head of AW. He lasts about six months the second time. But he' paired with John Whitesell this time and the show was a wreck after Mayer/Braxton's 6 months.
