Yes, WOW! For most of it I had no idea what he was talking about, but yes WOW!
mostly WOW, but the end seemed a little rehearsed to me. He even paused so the camera could make sure the close-up was achieved. Perhaps Phylicia Rashad did a little side-coaching.
He is an amazing actor, however. Rent ANY GIVEN SUNDAY and see what i mean. Very, very, very flexible, and capable easily of musical theatre stardom on stage or screen.
If someone doesn't ruin it all by casting him as Annie.
(Strange how he didn't thank Carol Channing...)
I havent goten round to see 'RAY'. I did enjoy his performance in 'Collateral'. Updated On: 2/28/05 at 08:47 AM

And his ealier speeches were better. (Golden Globe, SAG Award)
It was really great!
TxTwoStep: it was definitely rehearsed.. he was a shoe-in. I would rehearse too.

He is so talented! I, too, would love to see him in a musical. I wonder if he would be interested in doing one?
