DJBeacon Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Wanted to hear from everyone what are some of the most memorable career performances they have seen and why. In this case you may define memorable as "best" or even "over the top". Examples: 1) Andy Robinson as the killer in "Dirty Harry". One of those performances that you just can't imagine anyone else equaling. 2) James Woods in "Casino" = what a complete dirt bag, I want to wash up every time I see him as Lester the sleeze bag 3) And as a good guy, Slim Pickens in "Dr. Strangelove..."

TopBilled Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Since it's Van Johnson's 100th birthday and his films are airing on TCM today, I'll use him as an example. His most memorable performance has to be the one he gave in BATTLEGROUND. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LawrenceA Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 This could work as a new thread in the Games section. You name your personal pick for best performance by a star/director/composer/ whatever, and then name a new person. For example, Robert De Niro's best performance was in Taxi Driver. (Entirely subjective, but that's the point: to see other people's opinions) Then I name Cyd Charisse. The next person picks their choice of best Cyd Charisse performance and then names a new person, etc etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
