"The year of the Gosling"

The next big thing. In my opinion. And lots of other people's opinions. Ryan Gosling:

I recently watched Nicolas Winding Refn's Drive the other night. Bare script, low budget, brilliant acting. Carey Mulligan and Ryan Gosling reignited a dimming spark in me that has always wanted to act on screen. This is how it should be done. Simple. Truthful. Beautiful.


I also watched George Clooney's latest film, The Ides of March. A sort of Hamletesque American politics film. He's brilliant in that, too. And up for a Golden Globe for it.


As my good friend Roelof Storm put it: "it is the year of the Gosling."
