Greater Wingnuttia is Quiet.

So I'll note that M. Dargis is quite possibly TS's New Crush for '08, replacing the persistently-lovely Holly Hunter. I haven't always been so enamored, but her piece on There Will Be Blood is just awesome. Of Dillon Freasier's character, she writes

he has become a kind of partner to his father, at once a child and a sober little man with a jacket and neatly combed hair who dutifully stands by Plainview’s side as quiet as his conscience.


Certainly she's an improvement over David Denby, who, in perhaps the most inexplicable judgment of the year, proclaimed Magnolia "whimsical."

Yeah, and Roger Simon is a CEO.
