Damn. I went back and forth on #8. It's fairly safe to say he'd by my #26...now I just feel silly. And I love the shout out to his performance in Devil in a Blue Dress.

- #5 may be the greatest performance...ever
- or wait...maybe #6 is
- interesting to see #12 made all three lists...for three different roles. I flipped between GWH, The Departed, and The Good Shepherd
but the dude's generated one hell of a filmography
- that #23 is the Rodney Dangerfield of actor list making I think. Just can't get any respect. Love him, but always forget he's out there.
