Character Bio: Janet McTeer plays a good-hearted but not extremely bright single mom constantly on the move. Her character is constantly running from town to town to escape failed relationships. McTeer's character interacts with the wrong people at the wrong time throughout the movie. She was able to create this troubled and complex character without irritating the viewer by overacting the role.

"Crowe was not being rewarded for his performance in Gladiator, but rather his LAC, Insider, and Gladiator put together. Tom Hanks is going to win the oscar next year for Road to Perdition, Sam Mendez is no fluke. If you wanna whine about something winning that didn't deserve it, complain about Gladiator for best picture. Traffic wins oscars for directing, screenplay,and editing, not to mention del toro's for supporting actor and the SAG award for best ensemble. Why vote for Gladiator over Traffic when it wins the other awards? "
