    My votes.
    No vote for the other 2, I would trade any of them for Kate Winslet.

    All scored on average higher in their 90s movies that I've seen. Murray surprised me, but one truly awful film brought his average way down.

    Every person has a dark side.What defines a person with good character is not a spotless life of constant kindness, smiles and even temperament - but a willingness to see in themselves their deepest and wildest selves, lust, greed, jealousy and envy. Their complete & authentic self.

    Susan Sarandon
    Edward Norton (what a performance in his debut role in Primal Fear, top class)
    Tom Hanks
    Bill Murray


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,715 ✭✭✭ Irish Aris


    some easy ones for a change

    Susan Sarandon - 3-4 great roles in the first part of the decade
    Edward Norton - Primal Fear among others
    Tom Hanks - everything he touched in the 90s was gold
    Bill Murray - for Groundhog Day and his participation in Ed Wood

    American History X is probably in my top 5 movies, surprised with myself I didn't nominate Ed actually :/

    I just checked my nominations - I actually nominated him.
    5 films he played in the 90s that I liked: Primal Fear, The People vs Larry Flynt, Rounders, American History X and Fight Club.

    I totally agree about American History X, a very good film, albeit not an easy one to watch.

    I think I nominated Edward Furlong, has he already gone out or not up yet?

    I don't recall him being in the qualifiers.

    I accept that he's considered one of the finest actors of his generation, but personally I find him pretty nondescript. And don't get me started on that Forrest Gump sh*te.
