Thought about this after lucy’s Clint question & Hackman was great in Unforgiven, so…
I also love him in the following…
The French Connection Crimson Tide Enemy of the State Bonnie & Clyde The Poseidon Adventure
Is “None” an acceptable answer? He was pretty wooden in everything I’ve seen.
French Connection would probably be my vote, but not enthusiastically.
You can answer however you choose, my question but the “community’s” thread has always been my brief.
Hoosiers.
Unforgiven
The Conversation is my favorite. The best?
The Royal Tennenbaums
Unforgiven The French Connection Scarecrow Crimson Tide Bonnie and Clyde No Way Out The Narrow Margin Superman
Really, he is so good in so much!
Mississippi Burning too. One of my fave actors.
The Conversation
I guess I have a weird selection of ones I liked. Yes, the French Connection, but also The Package Welcome to Mooseport Absolute Power Runaway Jury.
And don’t forget Young Frankenstein.
No one did! Young Frankie is not a Gene Hackman movie, a mere brief cameo role for him. Concentrate on the question, for, as it stands, your answer is meaningless.
Was his role meaningless? Is he included in the credits?
Throwing your own criteria right back at you!
The difference being that I can offer a defense of my position.
I already did, you can’t because it was palpable bullshit!
That may well be true, but how about answering the questions?
The French Connection hands down.
