ONE pick.  I know it's tough. The dude has made some epics.

No Country For Old Men.

There's been a Lot of great roles from him - many with far bigger / flashier parts than that he played in NCFOM, but the quiet way he played a LEO that  has been worn down by his years of service, was a hell of a thing.

No votes for Under Siege? Bunch of uncultured cretins with no understanding of true artistic cinema in this place.

I still occasionally say "the one armed man did it" if I get asked about something that happened at work and it's sad how rarely people get the reference.

One of my first memories of seeing boobs was the cake stripper scene. Don't ask me anything else about the movie.

I want to say "No Country For Old Men", but his dialogue feels 'off'. Doesn't seem to flow naturally, sounds more like he's reading lines of texts, not speaking in a natural tone and inflection. I cant watch it without hearing it.

Legendary scene. Baywatch gal Erika Eleniak.

That movie was so bad it was good. 😆    Tommy Lee Jones character was so over the top.

"The Client", Tommy Lee and Susan Sarandon, two heavy weights at their best.

No Country For Old Men. 

He was perfectly cast as Sheriff Ed Tom Bell and his monologue at the end of the film is a masterpiece of acting. Retired now, he's sitting in the kitchen with his wife (played by Tess Harper) and telling her about a dream he had about his father the night before. For any son who's ever had a father they idolized, watching it it will rip your heart out.

One of his more little known movies.   The reason, it's a bit more cerebral and not action packed.     Interesting story, some really cool scenes and great acting by TLJ and Kathleen Turner.

House of Cards -  1993

Oh crap. Is that Kathleen Turner? What a freaking babe. Anyone see the man with two brains? Say no more. And of course, a host of others.
