Hollywood don't like singing actors and some irony

Rating: 9/10 (5 March 2014)

Very interesting movie, a must see, another question is if it is good or not and if it makes any sense.Inside Lewyn Davis is another great movie about a singer. The actor Oscar Isaac got ignored during the Oscars, just like Phoenix in Walk The Line. Not even a nomination for best actor for Oscar Isaac. Ironically playing a very talented, but unappreciated underdog musician, the movie also takes an underdog position for awards so Isaac becomes an underdog actor starring in a movie about underdog musician. Isn't that funny. Among very poor performances and blunt script in this Coen Brothers movie(I don't know who they are) Isaac shows acting talent and more amazing singing. I don't know if it is the bad acting or the Coens wanted to portrait everyone else as insensitive and bring an atmosphere of alienation to the whole movie, well they sure succeeded. Even John Goodman is horrifying to me in this movie, playing a repulsive character with no presence. I suppose it is intended for everyone else to be a-holes to Lewyn, so we can better appreciate the sorrow and despair of the protagonist, however this might have gone out of the scope of people who award Oscars and don't watch that many movies. Lewyn Davis succeeds not to look like a loser in my eyes, but rather a fighter and a proud man who struggles with life the best he can. If Isaac had received even a nomination for Oscars it might have diminished the credibility of his character.
