Adam reminds me of Gregory Peck...


He has the same physical presence, the same minimalist delivery that says a lot in few words... For me the resemblence is acute, maybe because one of my top favorite films is To Kill A Mockingbird; great actors like Mr. Peck some along once in a generation and cannot be typecast or made to fit the mold. I get that feeling from Adam. He took a role that could have reduced to caricature and gave a beautifully nuanced performance. BTW: when he removed the mask in SW VII was the defining moment for me... audience reaction notwithstanding...never never let an audience tell you how to think and feel.

I agree. I think you've captured an important part of his genius.
