Oscar for Eck

Rating: 8/10 (19 March 2005)

A very good film full of technical history and mostly accurate details. Highly recommended.
If Leonardo wants an Oscar he better realize that he will never win it playing a born-rich white guy, especially when pitted against a born-dirt-poor, blind, black man. Not to deny Jamie's brilliance - he deserved that Oscar. Leonardo - if you want that Oscar, go through with the plans to do Johnny Eck. I will be the first in line at the theater and if you are nominated, I promise to actually force myself to sit through the 'Academy Awards' TV show. Good luck. To me, Eck is as heroic as Ray and Howard.
