Re: Supporting Actors that You Admire?

I watched My Cousin Vinny on the weekend, and I was sad to find that this actor had passed away:

I always enjoyed his work. He offered a southern vibe and charm to his performance. He was great in Son in Law.

Tony Goldwyn

Those of you planning on watching Ghost tonight in honor of Patrick Swayze (that's not a morbid movie choice is it?) should keep an eye out for him...

He is proof that you don't have to be good looking to work in Hollywood. Loved him in Carlito's Way.

Angelina Jolie is proof of that.

I'd actually would love to see him get some good roles. He can bring it for sure.

Or you could see Tony meet his demise in Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives thanks to you-know-who.

Re: Supporting Actors that You Admire?

Not so much admire as just would like to see her get more work. And possibly because she resembles a prominent porn star.

Judy Greer

Re: Supporting Actors that You Admire?

Robert Forster. He had a brief run as a leading man in smaller movies in the 80s, but after his comeback in Jackie Brown has settled nicely into great supporting roles.

James Remar
Neville Brand
Mickey Rooney - Probably the best all-around actor in the history of film.
