Oscar Actors: Mortensen, Viggo, Academy-Caliber Performance in “The Road”
September 2, 2009 by
Viggo Mortensen gives one of his most haunting and most emotional performances in "The Road," the post-apocalyptic tale from the pen of the great American author, Cormac McCarthy, whose book "No Country for Old Men" was made into a great Oscar-winning picture by the Coen brothers.
And now comes the highly anticipated big screen adaptation of the beloved, best-selling and Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, "The Road," which features Mortensen in arguably the richest, most demanding part of his long and distinguished career. It's only September but I think that Mortensen's work in this tough, relentlessly grim but ultimately humanistic picture should get him a second Best Actor Oscar nomination.
