Well, there are lots of ways to be naked or to show nakedness, and in Love Is The Devil it's as heartbreaking as the rest of it, really - in other words far from sexy - IMO, anyway. Of course, someone might be into sad sort of nakedness, too, the way you put it just might give people the wrong idea. ;)
He's of course naked in several of his movies (off the top of my head... *counts* ...7 at least... no, wait, 8... eh, 9... and I'm probably missing some since I haven't seen quite everything yet (though I should be getting almost there in a couple of weeks, phew). Btw, GL - am I far off with that number? :) ... He even got to take his clothes off in bleedin Lara Croft: The Tomb Raider, which surprised me. (Though if it wasn't for the test audience saying they thought there should be more of him in the movie that scene wouldn't be in it.) And then of course he's also half-naked in many of the rest of his films, too.
There's a mention on the CR commentary track about the stunt man who does all sorts of dangerous stunts having been terrified to be asked to be naked (for when the chair is kicked over)... just hilarious. Daniel is just cool about nakedness - be it his own body or that of another actor, male or female, he says himself - good for him, and obviously for the co-stars in those scenes.
Well, I disagree. I think it's fabulous and it's my favourite of Zwick's films.
Thanks for The Shockers: The Visitor. Just watched it. (His character in it reminded me a bit about the creep he played in Love and Rage.)
How the heck had I missed that? *deeply embarrassed*
I agree! I had a great time at the cinema and was rather surprised that it's reception was so bad.
It was Indy and Bond against Aliens...as Cowboys! What's not there to like! :-)
But honestly, I thought it was a very entertaining movie. And Olivia Wilde didn't hurt the eyes either... ;-)
That one was great fun (though I'm not sure it's supposed to be), I always remember the portable toillet scene.
I might be one of the few people who loved Cowboys and Aliens! I don't know what people were expecting, but I got what I wanted. It was a lot of fun, great acting by great actors (the best Ford in years) and a crazy story (I mean, it's about Cowboys and Aliens). What's not to like, indeed ;)
"I never wanted to be James Bond really, but I always dreamt of being a cowboy" BUT even he should have seen, that the script was shit.
Interesting to see the chemistry between Craig and Olivia Wilde as she was the runner-up for the role of Vesper in CR! Personally, I'm glad they chose Green; while Wilde has given some great performances I can't imagine her bring as much to the role as Green did.
That's right. Were some people expecting a "serious" film? I mean, it's a story about cowboys fighting aliens. I say they actually did a great job, considering how difficult it must be to mashup these 2 things. Still it was both a western AND a sci-fi film all the way till the end.
The amount of talent involved in the film, however, was amazing. The cast was top notch and they all did a great job with what they had. Was the story crazy? Yes, but they all took their jobs very seriously.
Weird, crazy bit of a film. Surprising that he did it between Copenhagen and The Mother in 2002. Seems a bit off at this point of his career.
A review I read a while back summed this film up perfectly. It was along the lines of 'What could have been 'True Grit'-meets-'War of the Worlds' ends up closer to - 'Wild Wild West'.'
Why? I think stuff like that is great. :)
That was discussed right away when the film was announced and that - no - it wouldn't be like that. I never saw WWW, but I think, it might have gone that route unfortunately.
The concept was great, but the story was weak. No plausible explanations about the Why, How...but I am glad, some liked it. What Favreau did masterly was the promotional part. But then he didn't deliver.
Re Craig/Wilde chemistry - I think, there was none and normally DC has chemistry with a chair (even when he gets his balls beaten up :D )
@Tuulia - yes dark, weird stuff can be great to do in between just for the heck of it, but this was - dunno - meh IMO.
BTW - for those, who like his dark british humor side, this should be to your taste.
a small role for his friend Maybury in "The Jacket"
I've been watching the 7th series of Doctor Who recently (didn't bother when it was on TV because series 6 confused me and really put me off) and they did a much, much, much better job of the Cowboys and Aliens scenario than the movie of the same name did.
And Daniel Craig is a pretty tough guy. He reinvented that whole genre. He made me start watching James Bond movies again. He's great."

Interviews from the Evening Standards Awards
...and in case that disappears, the same interview is also here:
http://www.entertainmentwise.com/news/104090/VIDEO-Danny-Dyer-Wants-To-Snog-Skyfall-Star-Daniel-Craig
Another one with a better interviewer:
From 1:17 to 2:10 (Before that he also mentions that Skyfall blew him away and later praises Judi Dench.)
Is there any noticeable trace of Bond in his Blomkvist?
In my opinion Craig played Blomkvist exactly like he is described in the book, it's amazing how well he got the character.
=))
BTW, Germanlady, as seems to be her want, has posted up a small amount of the discussion and only the parts she wants people to read. The discussion was about preference. I PREFER Michael Nyqvist to Craig, regardless of the books (which I haven't read) and I pointed out that I see bond when I see Craig. She is entirely unable to accept that I'm not head over heels infatuated with Craig (I'm not, he looks like a potato) so has gone off on a long term rant as a result. This seems to be a common theme when she and the words "Daniel" and "Craig" are in close proximity.
Like I said - in your world, almost every actor is restricted to one role. Sad new world.
BTW - starting to ridicule someone always shows, that someone is at a loss of words and arguments.
I wouldn't waste your breath mate. You've stumbled upon the Eagle's nest. 'If you do not like Herr Craig, you vill be shot!'
