I read an article recently on some actors that will not kiss actresses when making a film out of respect for their wives. That will be a real shame if J is going to follow that too.

That wouldn’t surprise me since he has also sworn off his female friends since being with her.

I agree with you on Shadow Effect, and I have watched Aspern Papers several times to try to get into his acting style of being a self centered jerk. Then there is Black Butterfly. I really liked that movie but there were a few parts where there was just plain "bad acting" on J's part. Have you noticed all of this has occurred since he has been with M. Just a coincidence? I wonder if he has sworn off romantic roles because of being married now.

Antique, I love the two movies you mentioned especially CHILDREN OF Huang Shi. I actually own nearly all of Johnny's movies and TV. When I said Awake was one of his best I mean what hes done since 2012. TV remains his forte but films like Shadow Effect or Asp÷rn Papers are forgettable.

Harmonyweather...have you seen Belle du Seigneur or Children of Huang Shi? Other than his TV performances (Tudors, Dracula, Vikings, Roots, Elvis & Lion in Winter), these are my two favorite movie performances. When watching Awake, having worked for a police department for 32 years, I couldn't help but notice really crazy and off the wall stuff with the police and their investigations. I know that shouldn't have mattered, but I felt that was a weakness in the script. J's performance was good, it was just a "weak in parts" script. I don't want to say too much because I'm sure not every one who looks at this forum has seen the movie yet.

Antique, I watched it too. I thought it was very good, it kept you guessing the end. It's actually one of Johnny's best movies. It should have opened in theaters

Just watched Awake. I would like to hear from those of you who also have seen it and what you thought.

Inbetween her porn movies, she could also be a Life Coach. She seems to think that mental illness can be solved by going to an artist's exhibit and people just being nice to each other. If it were only that simple. Geez M, you really do live in your own little world wearing rose colored glasses. I'm thinking Michael Hirst needs to write another series with J in the lead. J has said he has wanted to play Ivan the Terrible. I don't know if many of you have read any Russian history, but their Kings and Queens were something! Katherine the Great HBO series, with Helen Mirren starts in the Fall, so maybe there will be Russian history series in the future.

I saw Awake,second hand movie,just like all of his movies in the last years.They dont even make it to the cinema,straight to DVD.He s talented,but in vain.He will never make it to the big screen again.I wish he could be on tv more,some popular series,something to be noticed.Unfortunately people with big power in Hollywood dont want him anymore for their movies.He will make DVD movies to survive,small independent movies.But,maybe his dear wife will get a big break and become a great actress,and make more money than him.In a porn movie,of course.

In M's latest postings, she is or was in the Indonesia/Bali area. Is that where J is filming? I see that Wolf still is not talking. He apparently is going to be a "late talker". There is one review for Awake on Amazon and the person gave it 5 stars. But they might be biased and a major J fan. hahaha I get that!
