FOG Academy - Greatest Actor Ever.

[Wichita Lineman]

I'm surprised at Bryan Cranston and Ryan Gosling winning, not so much Nicole Kidman & Woody Harrelson. 

All I can say is I'm glad I'm not betting on the outcomes of any of these. You just never know. Just noticed Mr & Mrs Matthew Broderick are both in this next one. Not against each other but could have been.

Round 1 - Matches 153 - 156

Jodie Comer - She got the call to audition for Killing Eve (2018) while nursing a hangover, following a party night with friends at a music festival in Barcelona. Despite feeling that she had little chances, she took the 13-hour flight to Los Angeles anyway. After five minutes in reading with Sandra Oh, she landed the part.

Sissy Spacek - According to her commentary on the DVD of Coal Miner's Daughter (1980), she initially aspired to be a singer and auditioned for Decca Records. The label liked her but told her she was too similar to another artist they had on their label. That artist was Loretta Lynn. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000651/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0

Guy Pearce - [on playing roles with a different accent] I don't look at it as hiding my accent, I look at it as putting on another accent.

James Cagney - Often left the set early claiming he was too ill to continue filming in order to ensure an extra day of filming so that the extras and the film crew, whom he thought woefully underpaid, could get an additional day's salary.

Matthew Broderick - Quote - "I acquired fame by playing the coolest kid who ever lived. Now, the only roles I can seem to get are bleak, insecure men. I do find almost every character I play quite interesting, though."
