The proof, to me, is in the rehearsal footage here. I was very surprised at what I saw.To me, it proves he and she are no lightweights in the acting department. One gets to see the acting process at it's most basic and unadorned by set and costume. Here they are both just working out what they will do in the film. It's a unique prospective.
Another secret favorite of mine was his performance in "Black Rain" with Andy Garcia, and of course, Oliver Stone's "Wall Street".
Follow Ups:
Explain, if you can, the differences in behavior characteristics between the characters Douglas plays in these three films. Are they not the same person? I.e. Michael Douglas.Now, take a look at the characters Gene Hackman protrays in "The Conversation," and "The French Connection."
See the difference?
yep, I kept waiting for the ex-marine Hackman to leap out of character in "The Conversation"...the tension was gripping. Too bad he's fallen into a regular type-cast so often. Did you see him in "Under Suspicion"?and don't you just love Bill Bob Thorton, who's so good at character you could watch four or five of his films and not know it was the same guy!
most amazing transformation in a single film: DeNero in "Raging Bull"
right you are. Billy Bob Thorton is so zen, I forgot about him!Sounds like I need to add to my "2C" list of Hackman films: "Under Suspicion."
BTW, for what its worth, my wife, who has worked as a silent bit part in a Hackman film, sez, he's just "one of the gang" with the extras and other assorted cinematic peasants on the set. Which is nice.
Biggest jerk? Cruise. "Peasants" have been kicked off the set for even looking at him.
Biggest disappointment? William Hurt -- dozens of takes required for his scenes in "Accidental Tourist."
I don't understand your point.
if you think that these scenes prove that these actors are " no lightweights ."
