I didn’t get nominated for Best Actor, even though I danced ballet thoughout my whole film! I’d like to see Russell Crowe dance ballet! That fat kiwi. And Tom Hanks! That bastard needs another Oscar like I need another phone call from Elton John! And how about some of those other jokers, huh? Ed Harris in “Pollock”? No one saw Pollack! Ed Harris didn’t even see “Pollack”! And Geoffrey Rush and Javier Bardem! Forgive me, I didn’t see your movie! I was too tied up in my 14 months of intensive ballet and acting training! I worked with a different dialect coach for six months, just to have the Academy snub me! Oh, they make me so mad, I could just.. I could..
