Irony of the Day

Just finished watching last night's Daily Show interview with Pierce Brosnan in which he mentions that he is working on a new Western, Seraphim Falls, with Liam Neeson. I, for one, can't wait to see what happens when a writer/director casts the lead roles in post-Civil War with star actors from Ireland and Northern Ireland. It does lead one to wonder whether there are no decent American actors left. I take that back. The rumor that Liam Neeson will be playing Abraham Lincoln in an upcoming Steven Speilberg movie should erase all doubt. That guy's dialog coach must make a small fortune.
