I hope it does well for one reason


I want Edward Norton to get an Oscar. He has 2nd billing in this movie, so best supporting actor could happen

reply

What’re you, his mom?

reply

I’ve been a fan for about 25 years: 25th Hour, Fight Club, American History X, Primal Fear. I think he’s one of the greatest actors to never win an Oscar

reply

I respect your opinion, he was also good at comedy in Moonrise kingdom

reply

He’s absolutely excellent but Jeremy Strong in The Apprentice is spectacular as Ray Cohn. One of the best and strongest performances I’ve seen. I have yet to see The Brutalist or A Real Pain for other two Golden Globe noms. But yes, Edward Norton as Pete Seeger is one of the best parts of that movie. He will definitely be nominated for an Oscar.

reply

He did a decent reenactment of Pete Seeger's voice.

reply

He's always good but the main reason we should hope this succeeds is showing this generation some real music not the crap that's put out now days.

reply

Well - Norton got the nomination for Best Supporting actor. We'll see if he wins
