The Interpreter - Scott Miller - 05-23-2005
The Mad American Wrote:State of Grace is a great movie. Good recommendation. I think Gary Oldham is one of th emore underrated actors of recent times. Has played many diverse roles.
Good to see I'm not the only person to have seen it. It is a pretty tough movie to find, however. I'm a Goldman fan-I think he would be sublime as Molasar in a new, kick-ass version of The Keep.

I remember seeing an interview with Gary Oldham, can't remember who the interviewer was but they thought Oldham was messing with them by doing a British accent. The interviewer had no idea he was British, thought he was pulling a quick one on him, one of the more funny moments I had seen on TV at the time. And I could dig him as Molasar, most definately.

We had four different spellings of his last name(Oldman, Oldham, Olman, and Goldman) in this thread, so I went to IMDB to get the definitive answer.

Yeah! Gary Oldman's acting is always perfect. Especially, his bad cop role in "Leon", that was excellent.

Scott Miller Wrote:And if you want to see both at the top of their game, check out State of Grace. It deals with the Irish mob in Hell's Kitchen and the cast is filled out by some relative unknowns at the time (1990) who have since become highly sought after performers. Check out some of the rest of the cast: Ed Harris, John C.Reilly, John Turturro and it was during this film where Sean met Robin Wright.
I saw State of Grace,too. I am Ed Harris fan, so I bought DVD.

Oldman is usually top-notch. He is really good at portraying musicians. His Sid Viscious was awesome, but I think my favorite role of his is as Ludwig Von Beethoven in Immortal Beloved, a little gem of a movie.

And yes, Immortal Beloved is EXCELLENT!
