Ewan McGregor is Really Amazing

I saw the episode of ER where Ewan guest starred as a convenience store robber visiting from (I’d guess) Scotland. He makes the rest of the actors around him, namely Julianna Marguiles, look like amateurs. He steals every scene he’s in and looks damned good doing it. I wish there were more people on screen that cared as much about their craft as he seems to. Bad writing on both TV and in movies is unavoidable, but Mr. McGregor can shine even through mediocre dialogue and poor action.
