Dustin Hoffman in The Graduate, talk about owning a role.

Another great job in another "G" movie, Al Pacino in The Godfather, either I or II. I prefer I as you can see the growth of his character.

Melanie Griffith in Something Wild. Her real debut movie, at least as far as a meaty part was concerned. She hasn't come near it since, although she had a few moments in Working Girl. In a supporting role, Ray Liotta was awesome as the psycho ex hubbie.

As far as Cape Fear in concerned (Remake) I think Juliette Lewis was the star there, or at least the most believable.

And speaking of Juliette Lewis movies, Kalifornia had a Helluca acting job and I'm not talking David Duchovny. That WAS Brad Pitt's best role. What a genuinely scary, souless Mofo he played there.

But not a souless as Denzel in Training Day.
