To sum it all up, this isn’t the disaster the trailer had hinted it might be. Kidman, Bardem and Simmons seem to be the most likely players here with, obviously, Sorkin set to get another screenplay nod. “Aaron Sorkin’s “Being The Ricardos” is significantly better than expected. I was expecting “slick & good enough”; in fact it’s smooth, grade-A, crisply written & very impressively acted (especially by Nicole Kidman, who captures Lucille Ball’s voice, Javier Bardem & JK Simmons).” “Sorkin’s “Ricardos” script is sharp & nifty, the direction is assured, the construction is tight and solid, and the overall delivery is very movie-ish in a good, rewarding way. The repartee is very Sorkin-ish, and that’s how we like it…right? And it’s even poignant at times.” “Kidman got a standing ovation — she’s almost certainly going to be Best Actress-nominated. Okay, what do I know? Nothing, but I could feel the love in the room.” “Not a Best Picture contender, but acting (Kidman, Bardem, Simmons), screenplay.” Contribute Hire me
