Ronin, Heat, Casino are all incredible. I really enjoyed his performance in “Meet the Parents”—he nailed that role and you could tell he enjoyed playing it.
Oh man. I guess I’ll bring up his role in Jackie Brown. Not to mention Good Fellas.
No. Casino, is not better than Good Fellas. Fact. They are both great though.
Alpa Chino, with an H, is a character from the movie “Tropic Thunder”, which also stars Robert Downey Jr. in blackface, as “a dude playing a dude disguised as another dude”.
De Niro the person leaves me feeling a bit cold…yet De Niro the actor is fantastic in almost everything he’s ever done!!! I loved his vulnerability in the part of Leonard in the 1990 movie Awakenings with Robin Williams. He was intimidating as Max Cady in the 1991 CapeFear. I enjoyed him as Vito in 1974’s The Godfather.
