The key performance from Benicio del Toro should have earned him an osca


As a heroin addict I can say del Toro didn't play the part, he was the part. It's difficult to describe how it feels like to be an heroin addict or even just any kind of addict. Never, ever under any circumstances (not even when he was suffering the worst withdrawal) did he go over the top or overactedlike many actors would have done, to go the easy way. He did an outstanding job on this movie. I've always been a fan but now he's like a god to me.
