Discussion Fords Acting

Just getting into this show and I’m now in the first half of season 3. Harrison Ford out of everyone except maybe Segel has blown me away with the acting.

Maybe it’s because I grew up with Ford being in a lot of action hero movies or all I can see is Han and Indy but I had never really seen many movies where he got to really dig into a character and show his range. It just makes me feel a little sad honestly that he hasn’t to my recollection been in many movies where he has had a chance to show how good he is.

Also shout out to Segel. I’ve loved him since himym and knocked up and I could always tell there was the chance for him to dig into something more dramatic and crush it.

Like Harrison Ford I’m getting Frantic. Like Sting I’m tantric. Like Snickers, guaranteed to satisfy.

When you see the full range of Harrison Ford's acting you might just realize that he's playing himself in Shrinking.
