Daniel Day- Lewis Is The Best Actor Of His Generation

If you don't believe that, watch this amazing preformance. Day-Lewis has taken on some challenging roles including this past year's There Will Be Blood but nothing he's done compares to his portrayal of Christy Brown , the Irish artist with cerebral palsy in this film.
This is a movie that should not be missed.

Day-Lewis supported by a wonderful cast and a script based on a true story,My Left Foot is film that I will never forget.

He really nailed it!

For a long time I didn't want to see this movie, why?, it would remind me of my youth, born with a birth defect that skips through many generations of my family, serious? kind of, I went to a school for crippled children up until high school, after that, a normal life, looking back on that experience, I always thought that kids with C/P got dealt the absolute worst hand for life that could happen, 90-100% dependent on some one else for everything. Daniel Day Lewis gets my tear soaked award for nailing just what a person with C/P has to endure through life, his speech, movements, 100% accurate, he must have spent a hell of a lot of time with these unfortunate people to master his performance, brilliant!, I have a real soft spot in my heart for those souls that have to struggle through life with a birth defect, it's not easy, I help and bless them. This might not be a film for tender hearted people, I struggled with it, glad I did, it might open some people's eyes to real struggles.

Excellent

More people should see this DVD
Cerebral Palsy is a cruel disability. There are so many who assume Cerebral Palsy is associated with an intellectual delay. How wrong they are
Thank God we saw Cristy Brown show the world that people with Cerebral Palsy have feelings like anyone else. We think life is hard, well we need to "so call" walk in their shoes and give them the respect they need and not patronize them like so many do.
I wish the schools added this DVD to their Program , hopefully we would have young people respect everyone with a disability as well as us as we grow old.

Powerful and utterly real

Watching this, its almost hard to imagine it is based off a completely true story. It didnt come as a complete surprise however to witness Daniel Day-Lewis act is arse off like nobody could. There are not enough words to describe his performance. An oscar well deserved. The film itself feels a tad bit dated but it doesn't deter from the fact that this is a wonderful and powerful movie that should be seen by all.

My Left Foot

I have seen this on TV, but I didn't give this five stars as I haven't watched the dvd yet and don't know if the dvd is of good quality. The movie, however, is excellent and deserves five plus stars. Daniel Day Lewis gives an awesome performance, as always. Very moving film.
