Review of Cold Souls (2009) by Oliver E — 05 Mar 2013

Paul Giamatti really became a special actor to me after seeing this film. For me, Paul's performance (post soul-loss) is astonishing in that: how do you act like a human being who doesn't know how they feel? How do you act as someone who's not emotionless but not emotional, not rational but not irrational, not kind but not mean, without making a blank face and never speaking? Paul's performance deserved a lot more recognition in this role for how much life he gave to such a lifeless character.
