Of course, now that he’s an Oscar-winning director, it’s easy to see his talent. However, the early career of a good ben Affleck, on the surface, this was typical of many American hunks: movies that needed muscles, big smiles, set in situations that required tank tops and bare breasts, car chases, spaceships, sex scenes. Armageddon, Pearl Harbor, Daredevil… the only quality that could really be recognized in him was good taste in women. (Jennifer Lopez AND Jennifer Garner were the two most important in her life, although, as for the first, Affleck is said to have given her a gold toilet seat studded with diamonds in honor of the most beautiful butt in the world, which confirms that Ben was not just master-a-penser).
But no, because beyond that superficial level of reading, the actor was put on his own path… and all the clues were there. In fact, prior to his initiation: 1. Affleck won an Oscar for Best Screenplay with Will Hunting Rebel Genius in tandem with a friend Matt Damon (at that time they slandered that merit first of all belongs to the latter); 2. Affleck received the Coppa Volpi award in Venice for the best performance with Hollywoodland (2006): The award drew laughter and a few compliments from his publicists, but his George Reeves/Superman 50s were just superb.
This is where his true calling as a director begins: his debut film is great, gone baby gone (2007), starring brother Casey; third masterpiece, Argon (2012), deservedly awarded the Oscar for best film in 2013 (and excellent performance).
After a few years in hiding due to personal issues (especially those related to addictions), 2023, however, has become the year of his redemption: his new direction has recently hit the screens. Air – The Story of the Great Leap Forward great film about connecting sports and business starring a friend for all time Matt Damon.
