How did he blow a promising movie career? Why was that said about him? I've seen him in several great movies and he's been excellent in each.

James Spader is beyond brilliant in this role. I love how multi-faceted his performance was and what a unique character Graham is, he is vulnerable and gentle, yet strange and apart, open yet repressed; there are so many aspects to the character and he conveyed all of them so credibly. His facial expressions and his voice were also used masterfully.
Such a compelling performance, he definitely made the film what it is.

I still think Raymond Reddington is his true masterpiece, and I can't help but see elements of "young Raymond" here - the boldness, the vulnerability underlying it all. James' performance in this movie is daring and unflinching. I've seen quite a few of his films, but I think this ranks alongside Reddington. Also E. Edward Grey and Alan Shore, of course, are triumphs of his acting career. He's a very daring actor - he gives so much of himself to his roles.
And my, is he lovely with all that luscious hair here!!
