And that destroys your credibility right there. You’d be just as qualified to pick the winner of the Super Bowl. In 2044.

Even though Bullock’s movies is technically a bio pic, just like Erin Brockovich, no one knew who this women as until AFTER the movie came out…there less for her to lose. As oppose to Morgan Freeman and Meryl Streep portraying well know figures…they had to get it right, there was no room for error.
