Just got back from seeing it..it was an excellant movie..perhaps, one of Russel Crowe's best performances..anyone else see it?

No, haven't seen, it, but I heard that it was based on a book and real life events.

I have no doubt that it is probably one of Russel Crowe's best performances, however. He seems to get better and better as an actor. The other thing I like about him is that he has avoided being typecast very well. Despite huge role after huge role, he has still avoided being locked into any one genre.

Jim Carrey, who is IMO one of the best actors today, is still trying to dig himself out from being typecast as a goofy comedian. I think the Majestic did a lot for him, but he would be wise to try and learn a few things from Crowe.
