Kevin Spacey

    So far, I've seen Moon, K-PAX, The Men Who Stare at Goats, American Beauty, The Usual Suspects, Se7en, Shrink, Beyond the Sea, and A Time to Kill. I think I'm forgetting something, but that should be most of them. I have Glengarry Glen Ross, L.A. Confidential and The Life of David Gale in my to-watch queue.

    What other movies of his are worth watching? I love Spacey albeit I'm not entirely sure as to why; he just seems to pick the kind of movies I really like. Maybe I find his voice oddly soothing :pac:

    I'm trying to find Ordinary Decent Criminal but having a lot of trouble, so other than that, what else can you suggest for a Spacey fan?

    Big Kevin Spacey Fan

    Check out The Life of David Gale

    Great film and the sountrack is fantastic too, I often buy the soundtracks after watching a film



    Edit, LA Confidential is not on your list either



    I watched A Time to Kill around 2000 and I don't remember Spacey in it. Time to rewatch it me thinks :)

    Swimming With Sharks is very good too!



    Oh, and you don't have Glengarry Glen Ross in your list either.. criminal!



    Can't beat a bit of Spacey alright!

    K, I've got Glengarry Glen Ross, L.A. Confidential and The Life of David Gale on my hard drive and had them on there putting them off for other films for ages, never realized they were Spacey films :pac:

    I'll have to get Swimming with Sharks out of that list so far.

    I'd give Ordinary Decent Criminal a miss, woeful film

    If you've seen The General and then watch ODC, you'll cringe really badly. Also, you'll cringe when you hear Spacey's accent.

    BUT.... if you haven't seen The General..... download that instead and watch it!

    I can't find The General either. :(

    The first time I watch Glengarry Glen Ross it kinda passed me by, wasn't impressed at all except for Alec Baldwin.
    But watched it a second time and thought it was fantastic.

    It was a play before it was a film. Wouldn't mind seeing the play some day. I'll do some checking out now
