Duncan Jones<\/strong><\/a> made Moon<\/em><\/strong>, his 2009 directorial debut, for one actor<\/a> and one actor only: Sam Rockwell<\/strong><\/a>. Granted, Paddy Considine<\/a><\/strong> nearly took the role instead<\/a> due to the production schedule's fast pace. But Jones created Moon<\/em> solely because of his desire to work with Rockwell. The film's concept sprung from a conversation between director and star, and its protagonist bears the name Sam Bell (a nice bit of self-referentiality). Conceivably, someone else — the spectacular Considine<\/a>, for instance — could've delivered a superb performance off a script as magnificent as Moon<\/em>'s, which counts as catnip for character actors. Half an hour with Rockwell makes it impossible to imagine another in his stead<\/strong>, and the whole produces a turn rather impossible to forget. A character actor at heart, Rockwell wouldn't be nominated for or win an Academy Award until 2017 (for Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri<\/em><\/strong><\/a>, another actor's catnip situation). His role in Moon<\/em> is a quintessential example of "this deserved an Oscar,"<\/strong> with Moon<\/em>'s oversight possibly due to the Academy's genre recognition problem<\/a>. Regardless, we're several years out from Three Billboards<\/em>, living in a world where Rockwell's making comedy mincemeat out of Argylle<\/em><\/strong><\/a>'s unconventional action scenes. Now more than ever, one of his finest performances deserves widespread recognition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
