Ugly People, Nepotism Success

Ben Platt’s Daddy has served as president of production for three movie studios: Orion Pictures, TriStar Pictures, and Universal Studios. He also produced Wicked on Broadway and the new Dear EH movie. What a privileged, untalented cunt with an ugly mug.

Ben Platt has a face made for radio. And a voice made for silents.

Daddy got him cast in Ricki and the Flash too, with that other fugly spawn Mamie Gummer.

He's not ugly but Domhnall Gleeson has always had 1/10th the talent of his dad. His success annoys me.

Ben's better looking brother Jonah has also benefited from daddy's connections.

That fugly big faced cunt Laura Dern is an example.

Ben Platt, Tori Spelling, Beanie Feldstein, Jason Gould, Nick Kroll, and Zoe Kazan should sue OP for violating the Non-Disclosure Agreement.

Nick Kroll's the WORST example, his father a nasty billionaire with a career working with Mossad and being part of the Weinstein cover-up -- absolute filth who bought that shrieking hack son of his a career

Zoe Kazan basically looks like a female version of the late Jonathan Brandis. But, she was one of the better performers on HBO's adaptation of The Plot Against America.

Does Nick Cage count tough he didn’t use his uncle’s name? Did he do it on his own?

Bette Midler’s daughter.

Ben Platt is not untalented - he can sing, and act but he is no leading man.

by Anonymousreply 15September 26, 2021 11:36 PM

But he is homely.

Ben Platt looks like a Sim.

There's a reason Christine Ebersole, Sutton Foster, and so many others are Broadway stars, but they can only land bit parts in movies. Theater acting and film acting are two different things. Hell, Meryl Streep, Kate Winslet, and so many others don't have Tonys for the same reason.

By all accounts, Ben is playing to the cheap seats in DEH, and what worked on Broadway comes across as overly-theatric onscreen. Meanwhile, the only person getting anything close to raves is Julianne Moore, who turns in a more subtle performance.

Boot strapping.

I swear I read a big article about Black Cube, the secret intelligence company that Kroll's father is involved with, back around the time when Weinstein's big collapse was happening, but now I can't seem to find it. I am probably just an inadequate googler and this isn't a conspiratorial cover-up but if anybody knows the piece I'm talking about and can link it I'd love to re-read it
