Had to get in a shot against Reagan. Predictable and tedious.

Why?

In fairness, Bogart was a slightly better actor than Reagan, but I agree that the referrence could not be less relevant to this column, which is generally about yutzes stepping in to play revered individuals.

Looks more like Madame Theresa.

Mother Teresa, born Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu in Macedonia in 1910, took her more famous name when she took her vows as a nun in 1931.

Much easier on the tongue, too.

Of course, acting is the art of making the audience forget they are watching an actor playing a role, and concentrate on the person being portrayed. Jamie Foxx pulled it off with his Academy Award-winning portrayal of Ray Charles in “Ray,” and Philip Seymour Hoffman won a best actor Oscar for his role as Truman Capote in “Capote,” and Joaquin Phoenix earned an Oscar nomination for playing Johnny Cash in “Walk The Line.”

Yes, but all of these people actually know how to act!

Somehow I have a hard time believing Paris Hilton can pull the Mother Teresa role off. If she can, she deserves an Oscar for the performance.

That line was my original motivation for posting this article.

And who can forget Jim Caveziel's nomination for his portrayal of Jesus? Oh wait...

Bogart was playing a guy named Rick, nobody knew what he was supposed to be like. Reagan may have done the part differently and still have had an impact, the point is that we will never know. And I agree, they media will never pass up an opportunity to disparage Reagan.

The problem with this tramp playing Mother Teresa is the fact that it is just plain wrong on so many levels. Has anybody even asked the harlot if she even knows who Mother Teresa was, or where and how she lived?

[AFreeBird]

Ummm sure, I can see the resemblence.

I think Paris would be the perfect choice to play Mother Teresa.

The only way Paris Hilton could pull off any role other than a vain, vacuous blonde is by coloring her hair and playing a vain, vacuous brunette.

Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu
Macedonia
Calcutta
Leprosy

You've got to wonder if Hilton can even pronounce any of these words.

I never bothered to watch her video, so I have no idea if her cuffs match her collar, but somehow I suspect she's been a vain, vacuous brunette playing a vain, vacuous blonde all along.

Salt is bad for your blood pressure. I believe what he wanted to say was that Household Ammonia and Chlorine Bleach shoudl not be mixed. That's certainly true.

Warning: Do not do image searches for Paris Hilton if your Safe Search is off on Google. Many very skanky photos will appear.

This website describes it as "extremely exothermic, producing a bright yellow light and a great deal of heat energy."

And if Safe Search is on you will get a skank with as little clothing as possible.
