I thought his performance was better than Arkins in Little Miss Sunshine.
What about you?

Screaming in a scene isn't really enough to be considered a good actor. He did the same thing in Amistad.
shareNo. Absolutely not.
Hidyho!
Djimon Hounsou should've won for Blood Dimond.
Alan Arkin should've won for Argo.
As much as I liked Arkin in Little Miss Sunshine, I think both Eddie Murphy & Djmon Hounsou were robbed, they were excellent in their performances. Something similar happened when Michael Caine managed to beat out Michael Clarke Duncan's Green Mile performance & Haley Joel Osment's Sixth Sense performance, even though their performances/films were more talked about than his film. That film was more of reward for his career than the performance, same happened with Arkin.

Of course this performance was better than Arkin in Little Miss Sunshine. DH was incredibly good. He was particularly effective with facial expressions. even when he didn't speak I could see that he was thinking.

Djimon Hounsou is extremely underrated. Love him.
The training is nothing. WILL is everything.
I think Jackie Earle Haley's performance was the best. Djimon Hounsou's as well as Eddie Murphy's and Mark Wahlberg's were very good, but they over did it at times. Alan Arkin shouldn't have been nominated.
shareIF not Arkin --- I'd Say --- Wahlberg in The Departed
