You know me. I’m a long time movie buff, love the Oscars. Follow the headline link for the complete list of this year’s Academy Award nominations.

One thing I particularly appreciate about acting is when someone completely disappears into a role, becomes unrecognizable. Two of the best actor nods really capture this sentiment.

Christian Bale completely disappeared and became Dick Cheney in his role in the movie Vice.

And the same can be said for Rami Malek, who became Freddie Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody.

Acting!
