Favorite role: I would post a video of a clip from this film
but all I really have to say is “I wouldn’t trade places with Edmond Exley for
all the whiskey in Ireland” and you should know what I’m talking about.
LOVE this breakdown. We're damn near in agreement with all of these actors' best roles. But I'm so happy you chose Shea Whigham's work in Bad Lieutenant as his best work. "Whoa, whoa, whoa.... whoa."
ReplyDeleteGlad you like the post! I just watched Broken Flowers so I am going to have to report that I have a new favorite Jeffrey Wright performance. That guy is massively underrated.
