Kevin Spacey was great in that flick. All 3 were. The only one I don't think is that great of an actor in that film is Gwyneth Paltrow. I just don't consider her that good. She seems to carry one tone to her voice in every film.

Yep, you're right. It was a best supporting actor Oscar though wasn't it. I want him to win a 'Best Actor' Oscar before it's too late though. That's the big one.
