Hey, good morning Joe! Merry almost Christmas… This movie, Misery, I remember enjoying immensely when I first saw it… I believe I’ve seen it several times on TV since then, and I am still moved to a state of “Holy Shit” by Kathy Bates performance… thank you, thank you, thank you for the background information critique and analysis… Always such a fun read, great job, Joe! Peace! CPZ
Merry Christmas, Zeke! Anthony Hopkins credited Kathy Bates for the most brilliant "mad acting" he'd ever seen in Misery. The material and character have a lot to do with it but I also think we were allowed and are still allowed to discover her in this part, which we wouldn't have if a star like Bette Midler or Jessica Lange were playing a villain.
