I think the best of them all would be de Niro - but not for any specific film - However I would feel that the following were fantastic performances...
Peter Sellers - Pink panther films - Funny as hell
Robert De Niro - Heat/raging bull/this boys life/goodfellos/cape fear/deer hunter
Tim Roth - Wouldnt rate him in this group
Morgan Freeman - 7
Samuel L. Jackson - Pulp fiction/Jackie Brown
Marlon Brando - Apoc now/Godfather
Gary Oldman - Leon definatly - his direction in nil by mouth
Robert Carlyle - Wouldnt rate him in this group
Sean Penn - Dead man walking (superb) - Carlitos way
James Stewart - Rear window - superb
Christopher Walken - Deer hunter/A view to a kill :rolleyes: / Everything this guy has done is superb.
You left out al pachnio and Cary Grant over Robert Carlyle and Tim roth

Here are a few of them anyway
Robert De Niro - Godfather part2
Morgan Freeman - Shawshank Redemption
Samuel L. Jackson - Pulp Fiction
Sean Penn - Dead man walking
But you left out Al Pachino.......I think he was great in Scent of a Woman but he nails any role he's in

Why are you so surprised? Or have you only seen Robert Carlyle in The Beach and The World is not enough?
Because his perfomances in The Priest, Trainspotting, Riff Raff, Go Now, Ravenous, Angela's Ashes and in one certain episode of the TV series "Cracker" certainly prove otherwise, as i think he's actually one of the best, versatile and more underrated actors around.
Just my opinion of course.0 -

As long as it involves a bit of shouting "HOO-HAA!" and looking vaguely threatening, sure. I'd like to see him do comedy, or, I dunno, a vaguely sympathetic role, or just something with no "HOO-HAA"-ing in it. Don't get me wrong, I like a good ol' HOO-HAA as much as the next man, in moderation.0 -
