David Brooks / New York Times:
The Insider's
Crusade — Jan. 20, 2009, will be a historic day. Barack
Obama (Columbia, Harvard Law) will take the oath of office as his wife, Michelle (Princeton,
Harvard Law), looks on proudly. Nearby, his foreign policy advisers will stand beaming,
including perhaps Hillary Clinton …

width="1" height="1" //divpWhen will Ridley Scott learn that you can't send a boy to do a man's
job? His Kingdom of Heaven was scuppered from the start thanks to the casting of that vapid slip a
href="http://www.theorlandobloomfiles.com/index.php"Orlando Bloom/a in the leading role of a heroic
crusader. Now here comesa href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0758774/" Body of Lies/a which installs
Leonardo DiCaprio as Bloom's modern-day equivalent: a hardball CIA operative on a mission to the
Middle East. He hurries through the carnage sporting a bum-fluff beard and the irritated air of a
youth who can't find his trousers and is running late for the high-school prom. He's going to catch
hell from Mary-Anne and Biff./ppBut here's the thing. DiCaprio actually turned 34 a few days ago.
On paper he is easily old enough to play these kind of professional tough guys, men who have been
around the block a time or two (after all, his Body of Lies co-star Russell Crowe was two years
younger when he starred as a brutish cop in a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0119488/"LA
Confidential/a). Yet here he is, this peevish Peter Pan, seemingly trapped in perpetual
late-adolescence. He's the leader of an ageing Hollywood boy band that counts Tobey Maguire and
Jake Gyllenhaal as its junior partners and worships at the feet of the great Michael J Fox. /ppSo
OK, I was unconvinced by DiCaprio in Body of Lies. But how much of this is his fault, exactly?
There is so much guff spouted about the craft of acting (who's brilliant; who's crap; what
constitutes a great performance). And yet this conveniently ignores the fact that a lot of this
mysterious alchemy, this glorious, demanding discipline, is down to having the right face in the
right place at the right time. /ppNo matter how many wigs and costumes they put on, or how much
weight they gain or lose, or how many different accents they master, actors are physical
properties. Their success is largely dependent on having an appearance that the public likes and
can accept in a given context. a
href="http://upload.moldova.org/movie/actors/t/toby_jones/thumbnails/tn2_toby_jones_3.jpg"Toby
Jones/a is a superb performer but he's never going to be asked to play James Bond. By the same
token, no one would ever want to cast Daniel Craig as Karl Rove – except maybe
Karl Rove himself. /ppThe party line on a
href="http://www.leonardodicaprio.com/leonardo/index.html"DiCaprio-the-actor/a is that he was great
in his early roles and then became altogether less interesting from Titanic onwards - in other
words, that his decline as an actor was directly proportional to his rise as a star. The truth,
however, may be a lot simpler than that. /ppIf we are to accept the general view that DiCaprio
excelled in This Boy's Life and What's Eating Gilbert Grape but was middling-to-mediocre in the
likes of Gangs of New York, The Aviator, Blood Diamond and Body of Lies, we have to wonder why this
might be so. Is it because he lost his edge as an actor? Because he allowed himself to be suckered
into too many Hollywood blockbusters? Or is it because he was just more physically convincing as a
mixed-up kid than he is as a stand-up guy? Should we blame his performance or his genes? And what,
then, does this say about the great craft of screen acting itself?/pdiv style="float: left;
