I liked him as the Polish General, Sosabowski in A Bridge too Far. Not a large role, but I liked him in it. Lt. Gen. Browning: Only the weather can stop us now. Maj. Gen. Sosabowski: Weather! Christus! General Browning, what of the Germans? Don't you think that if we know Arnhem is so critical to their safety that they might know it too? Lt. Gen. Browning: Now, look here. The few troops in the area are second class. They're not frontline caliber, not at all, do you understand? I think you ought to have a little more faith in Montgomery's intelligence reports, you know. He's done pretty well for us in last three or four years. Maj. Gen. Sosabowski: I will tell you the extent of my faith. I am thinking of asking for a letter from you stating that I was forced to act under your orders in case my men are massacred. Lt. Gen. Browning: I see... I do see. Do you wish such a letter? Maj. Gen. Sosabowski: No... No, of course not. In the case of massacre, what difference will it make? View Quote "what are you doing?"

Uncommon Valor. Probably not his best, but my particular favorite.
Remember seeing it in the theater with my Pops; holy shit, I am getting old. |

I saw him and liked him in 1968 "Bonnie & Clyde" when I was a kid. Liked him even more as popeye Doyle in the "French Connection". Started to dislike him after seeing him in 1997 "Absolute Corruption" where he plays a Bill Clinton pervert fucking that broad. Came to the conclusion, the guy always plays a good prick a little too well..... so that I believe he actually must be a real prick and I don't like him so much any more!

His part as Buck in the original Bonnie and Clyde was really good. That whole cast was good.

Just watched Uncommon Valor. Been a long time since I've watched it and it is still a great movie.

My picks...
Unforgiven Crimson Tide Get Shorty Enemy of the State and hard to deny him credit as Lex Luthor. |

Pigman: "A Bridge Too Far." Caine and Hackman in the same movie. This is my thesis man! This is my closing argument! I CAN STOP WATCHING TV!

"The Conversation" is a damn good performance by him.
And I thought he was great in "The Birdcage".. |

He is the same person in every movie. He did it well but facts are fact. I think he even admitted it at one point.

The Birdcage. In case no one mentioned it.
He's an actor. It's a gig. eta Someone mentioned it. |
