Speaking of Leo, did any of you see The Basketball Diaries? It's one of Leo's earlier movies and it is very good. It is very dark and disturbing, but he did a wonderful job.

Kerry - can you elaborate a bit on why you don't like Leonardo??  Depending on your reasons, you might consider giving him another shot.  I thought he did good work in both THE DEPARTED and BLOOD DIAMOND recently...

Just a matter of taste and preference I guess, Lynne. 

Why is one ever drawn to some people and not to others? Who knows? Can there ever be a rational answer to that? We've all met someone who has been absolutely charming and for some unknown reason, we just don't warm to them. Something inside makes us cringe, whenever they come near.

I'm sure it's just me. After all, my preferences wouldn't exactly suit everyone! For example, I was rabbiting on at another thread about how hot I thought Vladimir Putin was! I was put well and truly in my place in no uncertain terms by a couple of respondents who did not agree with me!

And I go all weak at the knees whenever I think of Christopher Meloni!  Not everyone would agree with me there either.

You're right, Lynne, I should give Leonardo another shot. I'll try.  :)

Yes, the world is a much more exciting place because of diversity.   :D

That said, tho, I'll join you on the Christopher Meloni bandwagon. :)
