Robert Downey Jr. Talks 'Inherent Vice'

[Madeleine Maudlin]

Actually Vito works for The Road (non-google achievements), because he's an
innocent victim in that, so cute works; there's a slight ruggedness, not
quite pretty, to his face, so he can handle the road, the cannibals, and
which is good for warrior monarchs or whatever he was in Lord of the Rings,
and also fits well with the unassuming smalltown niceguy who just happens
to be a stonecold killer from Philly in One Hundred Thousand Years.  He's
kind of a Heath Ledger.  Nah, not Ledger.  Who's comparable to a Ledger.
 The guy who as a lad played the schizophrenic who saw the large pink
rabbit, he would have been pretty good as The Road guy.  But he could never
be on either side of No Country.  Maggie's brother.

I think I could play six dimensions of Kevin Spacey, it would just take me
forever, I'd be really slow at it.
