Anyway, Scorsese's Wolf of wall Street — aka The Casino of White-Collar Crime — is coming out on Christmas, thank heavens, because two weeks is too long between Marty's movies, nevermind the two years since Hugo. Sadly, though — and I haven't seen the movie, so this might not be fair — it doesn't look like Leo's going to get that coveted Oscar ... again. I might be eating those words, though. I've heard some hype about the movie, and Scorsese's wild directing, and it's generally frenzied editing style famous of Scorsese veteran Thelma Schoonmaker, but nothing on DiCaprio. I'm cheering him on, regardless. The guy's an institution and if he never holds one of those gold statues, then the universe if severely wacky. Footnote: does he look like Charlie Sheen in the bottom poster? I think he does, which is altogether awckward since Sheen was in Wall Street, the sorta-same movie from the ’80s.
Also, have you seen the cast list for this movie? Sheesh, I scrolled so far down that I found molten core before I found the Sylvia Ward, who plays "Wedding guest (uncredited)," according to IMDB's scroll-like encyclopedia of names. Ward's credentials are kinda hilarious: she played "Theater patron" in The Longest Week, "Hot girl" in Vamps, "High End Escort / Mercury" in an episode of Law & Order: SVU, and "Russian escort (uncredited)" in The Dictator. So, cheers to Ward and to Wolf of Wall Street. I look forward to seeing both this holiday season.
