The Oscar should go to Richard Jenkins!



I know that Sean Penn was great in Milk. I know that the Academy will want to reward him for many reasons, most of them noble ones, but... damn, Richard Jenkins swung the weight in The Visitor. Jenkins is a member in good standing of the "Hey-It's-That-Guy!" club; dude's been in everything. It was so good to see him get a part like this and so touching to watch him play it. Not to short Penn, but the Oscar should go to Richard Jenkins.
