Bill Nighy in The Girl In The Cafe. The final minutes, though expertly executed, are pretty much New Labor propaganda, even though I agree with the sentiments. "Nice Odd Girl convinces Rowan Atkinson clones to save the planet" doesn't quite work completely, but frig if Nighy's performance in that little film doesn't rank as one of my favorites ever.

Totally agree on the Nighy. Fucking frustrating film/Live 8 commercial, but he's someone who I can safely say is always great.

he's great in "love actually" and that film is definitely NOT flawed.

The married couple and the brother-in-law in Junebug. I don't know any of their names, but thought that the movie, although expertly acted was less than fulfulling. Decent movie though.
