Plagiarism

edit

The current entry not only relies heavily on one source, it is word-for-word taken from the New Yorker profile in places. 173.8.31.161 (talk) 00:08, 20 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Over-reliance on New Yorker profile

edit

This article cites the New Yorker profile over 20 times, and seems to over-rely on that piece. Parts of the article simply re-state the profile, rather than provide basic biography. For example, there's a very lengthy section on "Acting philosophy and technique" which seems overly focused on this, while few other actors have such a section in their article. Really need to find more diverse and balanced sources for this biography. -- ZimZalaBim talk 00:56, 17 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

I'm not about to do it myself, but if anyone wants to tackle overhauling the section, here's two other articles that might be useful:

While we’re at it, has he really been recognized for his involvement in films inspired by real-life events? — HTGS (talk) 05:28, 20 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
