The Little Things’ Might Be Jared Leto’s Wildest Performance

look that information up, I totally understand his decision-making process. Why play a “normal” character when you can be an impenetrable storm of chaos, and/or Nicolas Cage’s brother? To date, the man has several more Oscar nominations than I do, so who am I to criticize? Well folks, I am a person who recently watched Leto do a Whole-Ass Thing in John Lee Hancock’s long-gestating thriller The Little Things, and while I can’t say that qualifies me to give the decorated actor notes about his craft, it absolutely qualifies me to talk about this historically buck wild performance.

Leto just received a Golden Globe nomination for his portrayal of murder suspect Albert Sparma in the crime drama, starring Denzel Washington and Rami Malek as a pair of police detectives who become obsessed with tracking down a serial killer murdering women with impunity in 1990 Los Angeles. To disappear into the role (as much as Leto can disappear – he’s a talented actor, but I never forget I’m watching Jared Leto), the Oscar-winner donned some subtle facial prosthetics, stringy hair, and an adorable little fake gut that can’t help but obviously be a pillow crammed into his shirt. He taunts the detectives with a hollow, raspy voice that sounds like it had to crawl through two miles of dusty catacombs before reaching https://www.skreebee.com/read-blog/12684

No, really. Sparma lurches through the movie like his joints are powered by steam, heaving from scene to scene with the stiff-legged focus of the Iron Giant looking for the nearest bathroom. It’s like watching a man with no knees trying to roller skate. I would not be surprised if at one point during limp serving as a constant, enraging reminder. But what I can’t understand is Leto swinging his legs around as if Albert Sparma is somehow the reanimated avatar of a half-dozen corpses struggling to walk in orthopedic shoes. I get that “be a huge fuckin’ weirdo” more or less gives an actor carte blanche to take some mighty big swings, and that some of those swings have resulted in classic performances like Marlon Brando in The Godfather, or Dennis Hopper in Blue Velvet. But my dude bursts into The Little Things like Boris fucking Karloff and does not get any more subtle from there. He might as well turn to the camera and say, “I’m a monster, get it? Or am I? Because, as we all remember, the true monster of Frankenstein w
