Russell SHOULD have won an Oscar for this role!!

Rating: 8/10 (2 March 2006)

I did not know the details of this situation when the film came out in 1999.
Briefly heard about it when it happened & forgot about it.
Great film.
Russell SHOULD have won the Oscar for this role, not Spacey in that "Naked American Beauty" movie.
He did a brilliant job in this role.
I did NOT like the wife character of Jeffrey's in the film. She was USELESS. Let him do ALL the work, go through all these problems & leave him. All she did was cook & sit around the house all day.
I am not a fan of Pacino. This is only the 3rd film of his I have seen. But, was this role no big deal for him, he plays the same type of characters? Like I said, I do not know his work by seeing his films, but from just clips from other roles of his, looked like he could have done the role blind folded.
I am noting here the short, but good role done by Bruce "D Day" McGill. So, his first of 2 roles where he worked with Russell.
