Hi,why is Caan not in your actor line up for 81 but prosky gets reviewed.

Robert MacFarlane said...

My guess:

1. Prosky
2. Hunter
3. Lithgow
4. Freeman
5. Brimley

Grady Tripp: Yes they will be included in my overall.

Anonymous: When I was picking the line up he completely slipped my mind, I'll tell you what I'll put my review of him when I review Brimley since they can both be considered one scene wonders (Rourke is technically a two scene wonder but you get the idea).

mrripley: I have seen Thief before but not in a long time. I knew I was going to include Prosky when I did supporting so I thought I might as well wait for the refresher on Caan's performance before I included in my overall.

Throw in Christopher Walken with Brimley and Rourke. Tap dancing pimps FTW.

Louis Morgan said...

Alright, why not.

the trailer for Blow Out is awesome.

Matt Mustin said...

RatedRStar: He did make a convincing killer on Dexter, apparently. In fact, he won an Emmy for it.

RatedRStar said...

@Matt Muslin : Ohhh ye I forgot about that, quite underrated is Lithgow.


also Louis, I reckon Lithgow and Charles Durning must have been annoyed that they got 2 Oscar nominations in a row and then never again ever lol.
