The rules are very straight forward, you vote for the one actor/actress you think gave the best performance out of the cast. Topic will remain open for two days, and then I will move onto a different film. You may offer future suggestions. There would be no poll,just voting.

Vote and Discuss here.
Happy voting!

MVP of L.A.Confidential(1997) = RUSSELL CROWE

Alan Rickman. To this day the character Hans Gruber remains the quintessential "bad guy" archetype.

drush9999 · 01-13-2018, 08:58 PM

Still think it's Bruce Willis' best acting on film.

But Alan Rickman just blows everyone else away.

By far Bruce's best, and the whole supporting cast is outstanding, but the MVP is absolutely Alan Rickman. No question about it.

PipesDonatello · 01-13-2018, 10:42 PM

Clay. Bill...Clay. (my vote is for Rickman also)

Alister_M · 01-13-2018, 11:59 PM

Alexander Godunov.. psychotic intensity out the wazoo.

crow2k5 · 01-14-2018, 12:08 AM

Alan Rickman

MrSmearkase · 01-14-2018, 01:32 AM

It is exceptionally cast all-round, but Rickman is 100% the answer.

stvn1974 · 01-14-2018, 01:35 AM

Alan Rickman. As for villains in film the only two that I think are better than his performance are Hopkins as Hannibal Lector and Jack Nicholson as the Joker.

octagon · 01-14-2018, 01:40 AM

Rickman and by a pretty comfortable margin. Which is saying something considering how solid the performances were from top to bottom.

It's funny how this film has probably been ripped off more than all of the plays of Shakespeare combined.
