Why?
This movie convinced me that George Clooney was again likable. And that took a whole lot of convincing. Post his ER-days, George came across as an extremely arrogant, pretty boy actor, always trying too hard to appear serious. Post-Michael Clayton, I now think that Clooney is in fact a terrific actor and that even more, he should receive an Oscar for his performance. The movie was that good and George was amazing. He said goodbye to smarminess and posing and was just pure talent.
Wow - I wonder what the world will be like now that I like George Clooney again.
Note: Michael Clayton, directed by Tony Gilroy, has received 7 Oscar nominations including: Best Achievement in Directing, Best Motion Picture of the Year, Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role, Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role, Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role, Best Writing, Screenplay Written Directly for the Screen and Best Achievement in Music Written for Motion Pictures, Original Score.
