Pace picks up `The Fall,' but won't push it too much

Posted by labelitlove 7 days ago
Near as Lee Pace can tell, the best way to scare audiences away is to tell them how good something is.

"I think people are really cautious about important movies," said Pace, who stars in "The Fall," opening Friday. "If you're told, `There's an important movie coming out,' people would rather chew glass than go see it."

Tall, dark, with piercing eyes and brows so thick they just may be able to shelter a small family in a blizzard _ Pace looks like he should be in the movies. So, of course, he is best known as a TV star, in a show he also believes has suffered from too-precious reviews.

"I had the same thing on my show, `Pushing Daisies.' There's this kind of `very special TV show' that people should go see," he told AP Television late last month. "And there is kind of a backlash to it. People are not interested in seeing something that they're told is good."
