Defining Roles

[Paul 584]

A lot of performers are mainly remembered for one 'big' part. For example Arnie will ALLWAYS be first and foremost The Terminator, but which of your favorite actors/actresses have a defining role?

 

 

For me Wesley Snipes will allways be Blade and MichealJ Fox is Marty McFly! Harrison Ford is Han Solo and Tom Selleck IS Magnum PI!

 

What about you?

Original Mini = the italian job (1969 version)

[Evil Gringo 279]

Uma Thurman IS The Bride, it will always be her most special and defining moment, even more then Pulp Fiction...

 

Harvey Kitel IS Mr White and Tim Roth IS Mr Orange, both their finest hours....

 

And Ray Winstone will forever be the DADDY!

[Guest ethan_hunt316]

Steven Seagal - Casey Ryback/Forrest Taft

[Guest Anime Otaku]

i agree with Gringo being the bride as a defining role also

 

VW bug = Herbie

[Guest eyes_adrift]

Uma Thurman IS The Bride, it will always be her most special and defining moment, even more then Pulp Fiction...

 

Harvey Kitel IS Mr White and Tim Roth IS Mr Orange, both their finest hours....

 

And Ray Winstone will forever be the DADDY!

 

I beg to differ.

Keitel was far superior in Bad lieutenant.
