Film Leonardo DiCaprio - Greatest Actor of All Time?

[moses]

Maturing is realising Brad Pitt is a better actor than Leo

The obsession with the almost impossible task of ranking greatness is at best a conversation starter.

I was watching the actors as themselves acting and not their characters, whose names I instantly forgot. It was a mistake to film it more or less scene for scene from the play and not really adapt it for the screen. IMO of course.

What's one of your favorite acting performances?

Did you know that he could fly in real life?

Well, he was an alien, so…

Always thought Robin Williams was overrated as a comedian. Excellent actor when he ditched the comedy though.

Only to the extent that Kauffman or Carey were. Which is not at all. Williams was a phenomenal comedian. Top tier, greatest if all time level.

Lots of tumescent comedic acting roles and performances though.

Never found him or his style of comedy funny. But maybe I've been unlucky.

You must dislike all the early classics up until the 1960s then.

Probably

Off the top of my head,

Al Pachino - Godfather II
Juliette Stephenson - Truly Madly Deeply
Dave Johns - I, Daniel Blake

I wasn’t really disagreeing or challenging you not finding him funny. Many don’t.

But HOW he did comedy was vital and essential and paved the way for a lot that came after. He’s a top tier comedian.

I don’t really like Clark Gable or Radiohead. But they’re unfeckwithable as greats.

Aha. I see your point.

He was phenomenal in this.

No love for Paul Walker?

He allegedly liked them younger than even Leo

Pretty much.

I like his style a lot. Barring that image in your tweet where he looks little bit like a hobo with that shirt and beanie, his taste is very understated and definitely better than some of the more flashier Hollywood stars.

"Steamy"? I thought the story was that he just lies there doing feck all and hitting his vape.
