Its seems to be doing well at the festival and is sgetting oscar buzz especially for Woody and Ben Foster (a terribly underrated actor imo)

Didn't think it was anything special myself. Good performances from Harrelson, Morton and Foster but the second and third acts left a lot to be desired. I did find though that the scenes with Harrelson in them improved the film, he was the best in this.

Not sure how you can say that Foster is an underrated actor. I've seen him in a few films and he's been good but that's it. I think people recognise this too.

I'd certainly agree that Ben Foster is very under-rated.. he always puts in a top-notch performance (even in mediocre films).

His performance in '3:10 to Yuma' was absolutely terrific.. a real scene-stealer!

Tough-ish competition in 2007 though.

I wouldn't consider Ben Foster an under-rated actor. I think most people who have seen a film with him in it would agree he played the part well. And he has 3 or 4 big films under his belt in recent years too. Not to mention his work on 6 feet under as well.
