jonattonyeah zackster William Hurt Damn. Excellent and underrated actor. Broadcast News is an all timer for me. Big Chill is up there as well.
alistair Had a great run of films in the 80’s. Kiss of a Spiderwoman and Broadcast news were my fave two performances although, he was memorable in History of Violence. Body Heat was also a fun film
zackster alistair Body Heat was also a fun film Probably my favorite of his. Great flick and holds up.
zackster Homegrove Never seen Big Chill. Might be an idea to rent it tonight. Blockbuster has it at 2,90 €. My mrs favorite movie
zackster jonattonyeah underrated actor He was nominated for best actor three times and won it once ffs!
jonattonyeah zackster Yeah but he doesn’t seem to be talked about it the same way Jack, Pacino, or Deniro are. And maybe he’s not at that level. I dunno. But he was one of the best of his generation.
alistair jonattonyeah I’d argue he was a better actor than they are. Those guys were often playing variations of themselves as entertaining as they were. Their cool charisma made them more iconic
jonattonyeah alistair Agreed. Hurt never quite had that truely iconic role like a Scarface or a Raging Bull or a One Flew. He just nailed part after part after part. Broadcast News is an incredible film but it’s not exactly in the zeitgeist when people bring up ’80’s movies.
alistair jonattonyeah for once, the Oscars called it right. Got three successive best actor noms in the mid to late 80’s which is going some
Smallman1 jonattonyeah Broadcast News is an incredible film but it’s not exactly in the zeitgeist when people bring up ’80’s movies. Probably because Commando blew it out the water.
