@immatthewj I like Amy Ryan - otherwise. First I was a hard no for this role for her. I almost pulled my sponsors and my 2 million I put aside because of this. I wasn't screaming but definitely raised my voice and the director asked for a 10 minut...

@immathewj I think he would be good as a lawyer. He excelled in those roles. For Karen Read: Robin Wright, Natalie Portman, Jessica Alba, maybe Amanda Peet. The actress has to have a wacky image. Also an evil smile. It's a tricky role, scary and ...
