Cinephile No. 492 "A Most Wanted Man"

"A Most Wanted Man" is a slow burning film that will keep you guessing until the very end. In every scene occupying Philip Seymour Hoffman, we are reminded of his brilliance and dedication to every role. We are also reminded of the talent we lost, but this final film is a dedication. A dedication to what a good spy movie can be and an unparalleled career. See, I reside in a camp that believes Mr. Hoffman was one of the finest actors of my lifetime. To watch this film, his commitment to the accent, the method and story line is unparalleled. Other actors in the film may seem to be trudging along, but not Hoffman. Never Hoffman. 

Thanks for entering my world,

Hello! My name is Nathan. I've always believed I would meet that special someone in one of two places; either a record store or a book store. Maybe I need to amend? I moved to Seattle in February of 2011 from Oklahoma City (Try and not hold the Sonics/Thunder thing against me). I knew I wanted to work for a nonprofit and go to grad school. Within a couple of months, I was doing both. During the day, I work as a Fund Developer and Community Relations Manager for a nonprofit in Kent and at night I try to stay as busy as possible volunteering, trying new restaurants, finding hidden bars and exploring Seattle. The past few years has been both terrifying and exhilarating. I have done things on my own I didn’t think were within my capability. I love being outdoors. On any given weekend, I can be found hiking, on a road trip, volunteering, at a museum, seeing a movie (I see a lot of them). I am passionate about nonprofit work. I feel called to leave a mark on this world. Nothing against those who enjoy making tons of money, I just need to know I am making a difference.
