Old school BP thread. Greatest single film role.

[Buckeyeskickbuttocks]

Heath Ledger as the Joker.

 

[exhawg]

Jared Leto as the Joker j/k

I mean the one where he gets horribly disfigured.

 

[heisman]

Louise Fletcher as Nurse Ratched.

 

[DubCoffman62]

Matthew Modine as Private Joker in Full Metal Jacket.

And yes I thought he was a tick better than D'Onofrio in the vein of the thread.

R Lee Emery made that movie, the rest of the movie after basic training was anti-climatic

 

[DubCoffman62]

Kevin Kline in A Fish Called Wanda, I can't remember anything decent he did other than that, it was next level

 

[DubCoffman62]

Alec Baldwin's scene in Glengarry Glenn Ross is probably one of the most intense scenes I can remember watching and also the only role I liked him in

 

[CMic]

Michael Madsen - Reservoir Dogs
Maybe just for the dance scene.

 

[exhawg]

Haley Joel Osment Sixth Sense

 

[heisman]

Chris Tucker as Smokey.

 

[charlohiottean]

Peter Billingsley in A Christmas Story

Hold your horses. He’s re-Ralphie-ing next month. Might set a new high.

Chris Tucker as Smokey.

The house from Friday is just about 50 blocks north of where I lived until I was 11

Renee Jeanne Falconetti in the 1928 film The Passion of Joan of Arc.

It’s my favorite female performance in any silent movie. And she never made another movie.

 

[AKAK]

It’s my favorite female performance in any silent movie.

Well you saw them all in the theater

 

[LordJeffBuck]

Renee Jeanne Falconetti in the 1928 film The Passion of Joan of Arc.

It’s my favorite female performance in any silent movie. And she never made another movie.

Her performance is often considered the best performance, male or female, in any movie ever made.

If you haven't done so, you should check out Louise Brook's performance as Lulu in Pandora's Box - she was a pioneer of the "naturalistic" acting style (and she's beautiful).
