Lindsay gets props for her acting
Showbuzz gives Lindsay Lohan some good props for her work in Bobby. Credit she deserves!
Estevez is right: Lohan does deserve focus on her skills as an actress.
Lohan gives a subtle, nuanced performance in "Bobby" and definitely holds her own in a star-studded cast that includes Demi Moore, Anthony Hopkins, Laurence Fishburne and Helen Hunt.
Lohan plays the idealistic Diane, who is about to marry William Avary (Elijah Wood) to keep him from being sent to Vietnam.
In one scene, Diane gets a manicure from the hotel’s stylist, Miriam, played by an almost unrecognizable Sharon Stone.
Diane explains to Miriam that she wants to "save a life" by marrying William. But it’s not the festive white wedding she always dreamed of, especially because her father objects to the marriage and won’t even be there.
Through her face and a slight hesitation in her voice, Lohan does a fine job of portraying Diane’s mixed feelings. It’s a very poignant moment in the film.
Lohan has said she’s not happy with her party girl image. She’s pointed out that, like many young women her age, she enjoys going out dancing with her friends.
If she continues to triumph on screen, her acting might overshadow her starring role in the tabloids. Only time will tell.

Not that my opinion matters, but Lindsay should focus more on her music career. The partying perhaps goes better w/that career, anyway. Just quit the cig smoking and preserve the voice. I love how she puts everything into her singing on latest album, and how she dances and lets it loose on stage.
