After spending 27 years in prison, Mandela has forgiven his captors and is leading and uniting a previously wartorn South Africa. He gets my respect right there.

...comedic strength, says Perlman, lies in her ability to play "a woman on the edge, about to fall apart, emotional yet with a sense of humor."
