Title: Hal Holbrook article
Post by: gravy boat on February 21, 2008, 11:42:58 AM
Here's a heartwarming article on Tom's favorite to win the best supporting actor Oscar, veteran actor and Mark Twain-conjurer, Hal Holbrook.

I, as I'm sure Tom does too, look forward to an acceptance speech with such nuggets as:

"I have never been more aware of an editor's genius as I have in this particular film." 

"To work with Sean Penn might be the best experience I've ever had with a director . .  He gives you space to explore whatever the scenes bring out of you."

The Oscar nomination "is like a miracle."  he says.

He was actually in Denver doing that Mark Twain show when I was there last week.  I considered going, but (1) I would have had to miss one of the real plays I was supposed to be seeing, and (2) I didn't want to pay for it.
