I agree. He was doing genunine acting whereas Foxx was doing something a notch above sketch mimicry.
"Foxx was doing something a notch above sketch mimicry."
And you know, they could have given best supporting to Foxx instead, for "Collateral" which seems like a better performance by him.
Disclaimer: I've actually seen NONE of these movies, but I will make it a point to see Hotel Rawanda. But I just think that whole movie just got robbed, it shows what phonies they all really are.
All their posturing, and they can't wait to heap awards on Million Dollar Baby, a formulaic piece of liberal orthodoxy. Maybe they should be careful what they wish for, after all, it is in their world where not being a star is a fate worse than death.
