...adds just the right amount of sensitivity to undercut her character’s sarcastic wit, which would grow tiresome in the hands of a lesser actress.The more subdued Rose is touching but less convincing. Even though she calls herself “a fucking loser,” her insecurities don’t always seem genuine. Her puppy dog eyes bewitch many of the film’s characters, but fail to persuade the audience that her setbacks are truly as grave as she believes them to be. If the film really is “Little Miss...

...emerges clean from an affair such as this. Obviously, Adams is the clear loser in the situation. His first wrong—not fessing up when a reporter wrote a series of articles about his relationship with Breedlove—was compounded by his choice of defense against the allegations that were actually true. Adams brought his own sexuality into the picture by accusing reporters of homophobia during his 2007 campaign for mayor. Adams argued that the accusations played into “the worst deep-seated fears society has about gay men” in the Portland Mercury...
