your top 10 performances ever

Of what I've seen:

Isabelle Huppert, The Piano Teacher
Leonardo DiCaprio, Revolutionary Road
Gary Oldman, True Romance
Vivien Leigh, A Streetcar Named Desire (yes I think she was better than Brando in it)

After those four, there are too many about equal in high quality for me to parse.

Django Unchained (2012)

Well, pardon me, but I think Leo's acting in those two films extraordinary in every sense, "interesting form" included. Those criticisms of Leo seem more applicable to him in Inception, Shutter Island, or Gangs of New York (none of which supplied him with the kind of role and dialogue amenable to a...

Django Unchained (2012)

I know what you're talking about, but he could bring an even crazier post-Blood Diamond post-Revolutionary Road kind of intensity to the character (I haven't read the script). Intensity is nothing without interesting form, which is what Leo's usual is. What would the joker be without all the physic...

Kill Bin Laden (2012)

Is it me, or does this film sound like jingoistic nonsense? It's just you. Oh well. Count me in with those people who thought The Hurt Locker very competently directed, greatly acted, but not superbly written. And Bigelow seems to have no ideas besides milking her wavelength to "masculine!" filmmak...

Django Unchained (2012)

People will be too blown away by DiCaprio... with that said Waltz will be genius. Lol so quick to jump the gun. What are you gonna do if Leo brings the same squinty eyed acting with the same vocal cadence and physicality that he is easily identified for? I think Waltz has a bigger chance of a shini...

Django Unchained (2012)

Keep in mind Tarantino's new dialogue and rewrites. During the interview, Rasmussen disclosed that Tarantino worked on several re-writes of the script, which he has been "bouncing off the actress/director...," says The Playlist. She states, "Just last night, he read me something. He’s like, ‘Oh, I j...
