In Reply to: Gunter Lamprecht gives the definitive male performance in film history. Also, the posted by tinear on April 14, 2007 at 09:22:26:
...and entering the region of absurdity. "The definitive male performance in film history." ???There's no such thing except in a fevered imagination. Perhaps, in your view, an "unsurpassed" performance or something like that. But there can't be just one.
Follow Ups:
A machine isn't saying so, it's me. So... need I mention it's my opinion, which I'm sure you'd agree I have a right to express, however strongly?
For its range, lack of any remote reliance on visible technique or histrionics, and ability to expose the humanity of what ultimately is a despicable character..there is no equal in film.
Lamprecht also is not a wonderful physical specimen, seemingly a glob of fat and muscle with nary a "beautiful" physical trait to help him.
I have long considered Brando's performance in "Last Tango" the ultimate screen performance but no longer: Lamprecht bests him, considerably.
