Love the movies or cinema or films? How about cinematography, production deals, or trailers? This is the headcycle to talk about movies.

"We live in a box of space and time. Movies are windows in its walls. They allow us to enter other minds, not simply in the sense of identifying with the characters, although that is an important part of it, but by seeing the world as another person sees it."
-- Roger Ebert

He was probably one of the best "character actors" of all time.

An impressive body of work.
I remember Repo Man, one of my favorite B movies.

Eight different characters on Gunsmoke supports your comment.

Also, I watch Escape fom New York at every opportunity, but I most admit I watch because
of Kurt Russel as Snake Plikksen.

Thanks, Harry!

I love Escape from New York (basically anything John Carpenter).

I would also say he was great in Pretty in Pink and, weirdly, Repo Man.

Oh, also Alien...but that's kind of a no brainer.
