WHO LEFT NATALIE DORMER OFF THE LIST???????
For those of you who may not know, Natalie Dormer played Anne Boleyn on the Showtime series "The Tudors." This series has been under some fire because it's pretty explicit (with the sex and with the torture). But, okay, for Tudors fanatics like myself and my friend M.A., who cares?? It's the Tudors!!! You can't make up a story line that's as fascinating and bone-chilling as these people's lives were. You don't even need to embellish it because it's way more soap-opera than Days of Our Lives could ever hope to be.
The Tudors rock.
Okay, and granted, the first season I wasn't too sure about Natalie Dormer as Anne Boleyn. Anne was such a dynamic, amazing person that the actresses they hire to play her generally fail. Natalie Dormer seemed like another link in the chain.
But then. Season two. Holy crap. There aren't even words to describe how well she pulled it off. There were two scenes in particular (where she miscarries her last baby and her execution) when I turned the M.A. and said, "She's going to win an Emmy for this." We compared forearms and found that we were rife with goose-bumps. The latter episode, where she was killed, we both cried.
Apparently, whoever decides who gets nominated has a shocking incapability of goose-bumps and is devoid of any sort of emotion. I suggest that these people seek medical attention immediately, because something is clearly very wrong.
I tried to find both clips for you, but the miscarriage one is nowhere to be found. And this clip, of her dying, goes two whole minutes into the next scene. So you can skip those parts.
But watch her last minutes and tell me: should we send some doctors over to the Emmys, or what?
