"Connelly's speech was cute, the way she read it with her face lowered the whole time, reading off a bunch of papers. It was evocative of a shy fourth-grader doing an oral presentation on the solar system. Maybe she was ashamed because she *sold her soul." http://www.salon.com/ent/movies/feature/2002/03/25/oscars_2002/index.html

Seems a little harsh. Anyone see the movie _Waking the Dead_(2000) costaring Billy Cruddup? Connelly plays a lefty activist who constantly rags on her politician significant other that he's a sell out. Then she gets car bombed by the Chilean secret police. Her hubbie then goes crazy during an election campaign and imagines she's still alive.
