Anna Faris is in the new movie THE HOUSE BUNNY and while the quality of the film will surely be debatable (and possibly terrible), I will still see it to support the best comedic actor working in Hollywood today. Some words I wrote about her work in last year's underseen SMILEY FACE:
"Anna Faris has been terrific in a lot of forgettable films for the last few years (The Hot Chick and the Scary Movie series) and with [Smiley Face she takes a lackluster stoner comedy and turns it into a sublime piece of performance art. She is front and center in every scene and Gregg Araki wisely just focuses the camera on Faris and lets her loose. She attacks the role with a series of bizarre and perfectly judged acting choices that add up to one of the most impressive comedic performances I have ever seen. Anna Faris is a force of nature in this film and she sells every lame joke in the script with the utmost conviction; never afraid of looking foolish as she stares off into space with her mouth agape or rolls around her apartment with no thought to vanity or good sense. The kind of performance that is usually shamefully overlooked by Awards and critics polls, but I will probably cherish it even more in the long run than Daniel Day-Lewis' brilliant work in There Will Be Blood."
