There's a line in "Robin Hood, Men in Tights", where Carey Elwes responds to an inquiry asking why the people would follow "him"... He replied, "Because, unlike some other Robin Hoods, I can speak with an English accent!" https://youtu.be/rrFmuiF2ENY

'Gone with the Wind.'
Thought his makeup and portrayal of Clark Gable as Rhet Butler was absolutely brilliant! |

I found Field of Dreams interesting because even though the story itself was sort of sketchy, there were a lot of real people being represented by the actors. Ray Liotta as Shoeless Joe Jackson, for example. The part played by James Earl Jones, the character of Terrance Mann, was actually based on J.D. Salinger, who in real life was a famous author as well as a well-known recluse, which I thought that Jones brought out brilliantly. And Archibald ("Moonlight") Graham was a real person as well: he actually did only appear in one major-league baseball game, and practiced medicine in Chisholm, MN (about 40 miles from where I grew up) for decades. His philanthropy was well-known. For example, he would collect old eyeglasses and then, on specified Saturdays, fit kids whose parents otherwise couldn't afford them with glasses. And I loved that the field in Field of Dreams was an Iowa cornfield. Can't get more middle-American and Everyman than that. Interestingly, that field still exists. I think one major-league game was played on it, with plans for more. |

Ditto. I particularly liked Dennis Hopper, who played the Deacon of the 'Deez.
And then, of course, there's Jeanne Tripplehorn... |

Dennis Hooper was excellent.

I liked her in "The Firm", but her movie career seemed to have ended with "Waterworld". Since then, it has been mainly TV.

I liked her as Dr. Garner in Basic Instinct.
