Perfectly cast roles in films

[Double R]

Marlon Brando - The Godfather
Paul Newman - Butch Cassidy
Robert Redford - The Sundance Kid
Al Pacino - Scarface
Michael J Fox - Back to the Future
John Candy - Planes, Trains and Automobiles
Will Ferrell - Elf
Macauly Culkin - Home Alone

John Candy in PTAA. No one else could have played that part. Brilliant.

 

[Double R]

Sid James and Kenneth Williams in the carry on films. Although Peter Butterworth was my favourite and was always perfectly cast.

John Candy in Cool Runnings
Lance Henriksen in Aliens
Pretty much everyone cast in Terminator and Terminator 2
Jake Gyllenhaal in Nightcrawler
Mads Mikkelsen in Casino Royale
Chris Pratt in Guardians of the Galaxy
Mark Rylance in Bridge of Spies

Philip Seymour Hoffman in just about everything he ever did. But in The Master, particularly.

Top of the list, though: Peter O'Toole in Lawrence of Arabia. Apparently, the world and his little dog were being considered for that role. O'Toole made that film his own, from first to last.

Brian Dennehy in First Blood

What a great film. I watch it every time it is on!

 

[RACHACE]

Robert De Niro as Max Cady in Cape Fear and as Travis Bickle in Taxi Driver.

Jim Carrey as Lloyd Christmas

Kevin Bacon as Sean Nokes in Sleepers.

 

[Uncle Wally One Ball]

What a great film. I watch it every time it is on!

You’re in luck. You’ve got about 12 months to get caught up.
