iam90sbaby 2,125 Posted November 24, 2015 Kevin Costner in JFK as Jim Garrison Matthew McConaughey in A Time To Kill (closing argument is amazing) Edward Norton in Primal Fear as Aaron/Roy Tim Robins in Shawshank Redemption as Andy Dufresne (could not have pick a better actor to play that role) Â ----- Bonus best role of 2015 Johnny Depp in Black Mass as James Bulger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dain11279 927 Posted November 24, 2015 I'll go with Daniel day Lewis as Lincoln, he nailed it from what I've read historically about the guy. Good call here. Wasn't the greatest movie ever but DDL was AMAZING in that movie. Prolly the best actor of our generation Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TimmySmith 2,782 Posted November 24, 2015 In the non-retard, non-psycho, non-superhero category, Martin Landau in "Ed Wood" gave one of the best performances I have seen. I said he was a lock for Academy Award as I walked out of the theater. Â PSHoffman in "Boogie Nights" nailed it. As he typically did. Â Best performer of our generation is Meryl Streep, she would have 10 Oscars if they didn't have to spread it around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

parrot 789 Posted November 24, 2015 My personal favorite; Robert Duvall as Gus McCrae in Lonesome Dove. It was my favorite book before the mini-series, and he completely nailed the character from the book. The producers actually wanted him to play Woodrow Call, largely because of his performance in The Great Santini, but he said he would only play Gus. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm a Westerns junkie - but for some reason have never seen L-Dove. My friends tell me it's the bomb and is the best Western ever, we will see. I finally have it taped and plan on watching it over the holiday. Looking forward to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
