Review of Skins

Skins (1994)
Cole Hauser delivers one of the most solid monologues in the history of film. Period.
6 July 2004
I forgot the film once it was over but I will never forget Cole Hauser's monologue at the beginning of the movie. I don't know how much was adlibbed etc. But the calm controlled delivery and the crystal clear precision of his intent makes this movie worth watching. I find it interesting that Ed Norton received so much hype for History X I understand the mechanics of empathy and that is what it is. Hauser's Skinhead had no redeeming qualities and so it passed by the wayside. But... just for a moment forget the politics of dancing and just take the delivery of the words into account. Professional. Professional. Professional.
