Gandhi?!?

2007-06-14 22:44:05.798226+02 by ebwolf 2 comments

I've been trolling the trailers on Quicktime and IMDB and watched the trailer for You Kill Me. It's a movie about an alcoholic hitman who joins AA to try to mend his ways. What's crazy, and it took seeing the trailer twice to catch it, is that Ben Kingsley, who one the Best Actor Oscar for his portrayal of the man who embodies peace, Gandhi, is playing the drunk hitman! I also checked the trailer for his 2000 film Sexy Beast in which he plays a mafioso!

I think the term you're looking for is "Acting".

You've gotta remember, Eric and I grew up in the generation that celebrated Jack Nicholson. Acting is a foreign concept to us.
