8 thoughts on “MCM: Ben Affleck

  1. If I had a penny for every time Mr Ben Affleck has been the most delightfully hammy contributor to a Period Drama I’d only have two pennies, but goodness me IT HAPPENED TWICE!

    I say that if HBO ever needs an Aegon the Unworthy, they really need to give him a call (Also, I remain curious about what a Ben Affleck-directed Batman film would look like).

  2. I enjoy watching documentaries about the Canadian Caper, but I refuse to watch Argo. I’m not thrilled with Affleck bleaching Tony Mendez, or the cat and mouse embellishments in the fictional piece.

  3. I loved the Voyage of the Mimi (both seasons) – we watched it in school.
    When I saw Argo in the theater with my mother-in-law she was very confused when I sobbed through the opening – but my beloved high school physics teacher who escaped the revolution by the skin of his teeth had just died and it turned out I had a lot of feelings about the whole thing.

    1. Agree to disagree: his record is, for my money, mixed-to-positive, in that he tends to be merely ‘meh’ or outright entertaining (At least in my experience of his work).

Feel the love
