It was acted, I see what you mean. But I think it's to be expected a little from plays. I don't think I've seen a film version of any play that didn't seem acted a bit; Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf, while fantastic, is very acted. The only one I disliked was Mr. Ed, she is just horrific. I've always liked Portman and that scene between her and Owen in the lap dance lounge was breathtaking. Even though I had seen the play, I was on the edge of my seat expecting him to slap her at any moment. Jude Law is just a fantastic actor, I love him. He's got this air on intellectualism to him that is incredibly irresistible to me.

And we TOTALLY got to see Law's pubes in the bedroom scene with Portman! I'm such a perv!
