Catharine O'Hara was a household name and for good reason, she's a fine comedic actress. I love her in Best in Show, few make films like Christopher Guest, a crying shame. I remember her turn in After Hours, she's wonderful in that movie. What a strange film. It's like Scorsese does Lynch doing Kids in the Hall, so weird. Good choices, I need to watch For Your Consideration right now haha.Tokarohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02807042060473464015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784665635104956142.post-14356779032948185572014-05-26T17:03:37.062-04:002014-05-26T17:03:37.062-04:00Well, happy to say I saw the film and while not ev...Well, happy to say I saw the film and while not everything in it worked for me, I definitely loved her performance in it. I always thought she's great, but she rarely gets to play characters as meaty as Marilyn Hack. To me, both her role and her acting there were the highlights of the film. She certainly deserved an Oscar nomination for her one woman show. Thanks, man!
