Toby Jones Was Just Robbed Of An Emmy


He deserved the Emmy for this role as Hitch.. Not Michael Douglas. Toby Won it All The Way

reply

IMHO they gave it to Michael Douglas out of homage - cancer/longevity - and his bravery (chutzpah?) in having taken on that role. That seems to be how it works, sometimes. I do think it was a brave part for him to take on, but that doesn't diminish the performance here.

I just watched him in this and Infamous. I cannot believe I was unfamiliar with him. He is nothing short of AMAZING!

I agree! He was excellent.

His Hitchcock was okay. Anthony Hopkins' Hitchcock was brilliant.

reply

Tobie nailed it, Hopkins was badly miscast.

reply

I do not think he quite got Hitchcock for my liking, nor did Hopkins as well.

Its that man again!!
