Quoted: Denzel does both supremely well. Sometimes at the same time. View Quote The first time I saw Training Day, I really didn't like it. Not sure why, maybe because I was so used to him playing a good guy that I subconsciously didn't like him as a bad guy. About five years later, I watched it again and was supremely impressed with his depiction of the bad cop. He really, really nailed that role. |

Quoted: Max von Sydow His Joubert was masterful. View Quote Beat me to it - he was both in 3 days of the Condor. Concur with OP's choice of Mads Mikkelsen - loved him in Valhalla rising; even if there was only 10 lines of dialog in the whole movie. Neil Patrick Harris Let's see if we can name some actresses in the same vain; the first one that comes to my mind is Rosamund Pike. |

He was truly gifted, someone with that face played a ladies man convincingly. As stated in Grumpier Old Men, he has a face like a catcher's mitt. ETA: I just realized that could also describe Peter Boyle to some extent. |
