   Most memorable acting in movies
  What do you think have been the best acting jobs done in movies? What actor did a really good job with their character?I'm not a fan of John Travolta, but in Pulp Fiction he did an awesome job. Normally I like action in my movies, but I was happy just watching him and his character talk. He oozed a cool style that makes me realize how boring I must seem.In JFK, Joe Pesci gave a great performance. He really made his character, uhh...I'm not quite sure what word I'm looking for. But he did a good job.I've only seen part of The Godfather, but from what I saw, Al Pacino was good. At the part where I first saw him he seemed happy and such, but you see a clear change when gets more responsibilities.Those are what I've found the most memorable so far.   
  When I saw Mask, i thought Cher acted really good. great film and acting b.t.w.   ;  Perhaps some of you won't include him in your list of all-time greatest actors, but one of the most memorable performances I can think of is Johnny Depp in Pirates.   ;Quote:Original post by Fibonacci OnePerhaps some of you won't include him in your list of all-time greatest actors, but one of the most memorable performances I can think of is Johnny Depp in Pirates.Saavy?   ;  Robert De Niro did a great job in Raging Bull and Bill Murray had a wonderful performance in Lost In Translation.   ;  Speaking of Robert De Niro, and in addtion, Val Kilmer and Al Pacino I thought were great in HEAT. And I strongly agree with Fibonacci One on Depp, I loved that movie.Last but not least, Denzel Washington in Training Day, John Q, and many other movies.I thought Samuel Jackson was outstanding in the Negotiator and in Pulp Fiction as well.Many more of course, but those are the ones that come to mind.   ;  Training DayJoe Pesci and no mention of Goodfellas? ;  De Niro is always really, really good.  If you haven't already, check out Casino   ;  And Taxi Driver, another great De Niro performance.   ;  Edward Norton - Primal Fear, American History X, Fight ClubRussel Crowe - Gladiator, A Beautiful Mind, Cinderella ManFor a comedian I think Jim Carey has really done some great work ie Truman Show, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Man on the Moon, Ace Ventura, etc
