To Michael...

You must know that your performance in Making Love was likely the most risky and courageous turn any actor has ever taken, at the height of his career no less, ever. Period.

Thank you so much for making this film, and taking what could have been a treacly soap opera and elevating it to a level complexity that is still arresting when you listen to the dialogue, still makes you sit up and take notice, still seems modern decades later. You were so likable in this movie, genuine and good, torn and conflicted. Very fascinating to watch. Kate nearly matched you.

You took a big risk, and if it marked your career, it also marked cinema.
