Today is Robert Duvall's birthday. He's my favorite actor. Just a small glance at his body of work
IMDB page gives a view of many great films. He's a great lead and a good buddy for a dual lead movie, but he's at his best in support, like the detective in
Falling Down or the lawyer in
A Civil Action. Then again, he was great in
Open Range and
Secondhand Lions, too. I'm one of few race fans who actually liked
Days of Thunder.
The Apostle seemed real and accurate to me.
Network was before its time.
Tender Mercies,
THX-1138 and on and on. It's just a wonderful set of films, with wonderful performances.
