To the Baldwin-haters...
"Is there a parent in the world who hasn't been let down by an offspring? We expect narcissism from children Ireland's age....but 46y/o father's don't get a free pass in that domain when dealing with their children."
No, he doesn't get a free pass...but to think his ex-wife isn't helping the situation in this ugly custody dispute is being too generous...it's not like we are throwing her under the bus here, but lets face it, who would have released that kind of voicemail msg? Ireland? The cellphone company? No, the "other side" did. And Alec B. is perfectly justified in calling Kim B. to the mat for it.
And I also agree with other posters that the Tom Cruise comparison doesn't apply here. I think Nick Nolte has more in common with Cruise than Alec Baldwin, because Nolte (ala Prince of Tides, North Dallas Fortys, etc.) has tried for years to come off as the sensitive lead man guy...while being a complete sexist pig off-screen. Now that Nolte is more of a curmudgeon on screen, it's a little easier for me to take his performances seriously.
