I don't know if I should call this adulthood crises based on the behavior. There are movies about well- known characters that sound more like a child fantasizing about a heroic figure than a real story. I first thought that was just an exception when I noticed it in the Lincoln movie with the sever deficiency of material before seeing it yesterday again with the recent movie about Steve Jobs. I felt that despite how generally I watch movies mainly for the acting.

I wonder if there is a considerable number of people who think that winning the best actor award of the most recent Oscar was not a corruption joke. Actually, contrary to the case for the best supporting actor for the same movie, it is very hard to see how even a nomination in this category was deserved or close to that.

Anyway, I was contemplating re-watching some of the "winner" nominated movies to see why I feel so far from sensing the quality of his acting. Now I feel relieved from that because this "win" tells me that I probably did not miss a big thing there.

Saw "The Revenant". Based on his portrayal of the main character I would rather see a bear attacking DiCaprio at the end. Even his body language did not always seem to fit. There is a scene in which he was sitting like a guy who had just finished a computer work or at most a day of labor work after what was supposed to be a near death exhaustion.
