...Sometimes an actor is naturally just strange enough, whether in looks or something deeper within, to carry off a role that would look like mannered showboating by anyone else. Johnny Depp and Robert Downey Jr. have that talent, and so does Crispin Glover, although he doesn't seem capable of swinging into normalcy.

"They cannot believe all those optimistic figures given by the government. The government says that inflation was less than 30%, but they go to the grocery store and find everything is double and triple the price that it was four years...
