That movie is one of the few that I'll stop changing the channel when I see it because he commands the screen in that movie, like few I've seen.

Sean Penn is one of the most talented actors in Hollywood. He's incredible in Mystic River.
Forrest Whitaker was very good in The Last King of Scotland too.

Forrest Whitakers finest moment was in Fast Times at Ridgemont High. Nothing funnier when Forrest walks up looking for tickets and the little kid says: "Wow he lives here? I thought he only flew in for games."

What about the moment in The Crying Game when his lover takes off "her" pants?

I have seen seven of the 10. If you should bother to see any of them, I would definitely say see Life is Beautiful.

I chose Jamie Foxx believe it or not. I love that film and was, and still am, knocked out by how Foxx came essentially out of nowhere and so thoroughly inhabited the character that by the end of the film it was hard to imagine you weren't looking at the genuine article. I think biopics are hard to get right and he hit Ray out of the park.
