GUEST - Nicole Kidman's acting ability.

I first saw her a number of years ago in a TV film called Bangcock Hilton, with Denholme Elliot. She was an unknown Australian actress and she would have run away with the film if Elliot had not been the consummate performer that he was.

At that time Nicole was an attractive young lady but without the glamour that she has picked up over the past few years. It was clear, however, from her performance that she would have a real future as an actress and she has showed this promise in the diversity of the various roles that she has taken on.

I think that the problem that she has with finding a partner does stem from her fame and glamorous image. this seems to intimidate a lot of men who might otherwise be inclined to approach her. That would leave a relatively small pool of potential partners with sufficient staus and wealth who might feel comfortable making an advance. Is she too much competition for most men?
