What went wrong with Oliver Platt in "Guys and Dolls"?
Posted by: tmwctd 01:15 pm EST 02/09/25

I have always liked him on TV or in movies but I remember that he got awful notices for his Nathan Detroit in 2009. Granted, the whole show got poor reviews but what exactly went wrong with his performance?
