Not crazy about Freeman in Shawshank... hes just Freeman being Freeman, not quite extraordinary. I like Robbins and Gunton more in it.

To me personally this is one of the most overrated movies and performances ever. It was not even the best movie/performance about AIDS in that year. Matthew Modine in ...and the band played on was far superior

Glad I cut him from my list when I had 110 or so, or else he'd be even higher.

Every vote except for one was a top 20 placement. Certainly has the most passionate supporters using that measure.

Good choice for Ganz. If not for Dr. Lecter's #1 vote, would he have made Top 100?

Yes, it has another top 3 vote and would still be in the 60s range.

Kewl for Ganz. Dunno if he would make my Top 100, but still good for KJ. :thumbsup:

And Denzel? Whoa.

Any Depp performances appear yet? POTC will obviously be there, what else? Edward Scssorhands?

Yay, was afraid he'd be snubbed, though would've preferred Malcolm X.
