Paul Walter Hauser Gives His Own Movie 3.5 Stars on Letterboxd: ‘What’s Wrong With Giving an Honest Rating?’


Paul Walter Hauser often rates his own movies on Letterboxd, giving 'Richard Jewell' 3.5 stars: 'What's wrong with giving an honest rating?'

On Wednesday night, the actor took to X to respond to a post that reads, “Paul Walter Hauser giving Richard Jewell a 3.5 on Letterboxd, a movie in which he quite literally plays the title character, is one of the funnier things I’ve come across on that app.” Hauser starred in the 2019 Clint Eastwood-directed crime thriller as Richard Jewell, the man who found a bomb during the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta and alerted authorities to evacuate — only to later be wrongly accused of planting the explosives himself. In Variety ‘s review, chief film critic Peter Debruge said Eastwood’s casting of a less-experienced actor in the lead worked “brilliantly” in “Richard Jewell,” writing that it allowed “Hauser to shine in a role movie star Jonah Hill once intended to play.”
