    Let's face it, Hackman is just one of those actors where I'll go see the movie if he's in it. He's that talented, bringing something to every role that is absolutely, uniquely his. Whether its a rawness, fury, or compassion, he saw things in characters that would not exist on film without him in the role.

    Ok, looking over list of all of Gene Hackman's movies, I have to say that "The French Connection" was his best performance.

  • @TS-wh4ey
    @TS-wh4ey Год назад +26

    Don't forget BAT 21, Bite The Bullet, The Chamber, and Scarecrow. But my personal favorites are Unforgiven, Mississippi Burning, The French Connection 1 and 2, The Quick and The Dead, and Crimson Tide. Mr. Hackman is an iconic actor that played in so many iconic movies.

    Gene Hackman is a true artist and your List is Great with the exception of The Superman. The Honorable mention should be: "Scarecrow", "Target", "Package", "No Way Out", "Marooned", "Downhill Racer", "Reds", "Class Action", "Narrow Margin", "The Firm" and "Absolute Power".
    Gene Hackman never gave a weak performance, and he is truly a cinematic Legend.

    The one thing worth watching in "Unforgiven" - is the "duck of death" scene, which is
    best supplemented with his episode against Ace Hanlon in "The Quick and the Dead".
    Lance Henriksen sets it up, and Gene Hackman delivers.

  • @mr.j.perala2861
    @mr.j.perala2861 Год назад +5

    Gene Hackman really was an awesome actor and he made a fine career. His best performances are in The French Connection, The Conversation, Mississippi Burning and Unforgiven. Superman was one of my childhood favourite movies and Hackman was very good in the role of evil Lex Luthor.

  • @larsnilsson3438
    @larsnilsson3438 Год назад +4

    Number one, for me; French Connection and perhaps, even Mississippi Burning. But I agree, he really did something great with his character in Unforgiven. Without him in Unforgiven, that would not have been the same. He made that film, for what is is. Great actor.

    Gene Hackman is an amazing actor but I have to put The French Connection as #1. Popeye Doyle is such a memorable character. Whatever movie he’s involved he will give that performance 100%. Lesser known gems from Gene Hackman are The Package, The Quick and the Dead, and Narrow Margin. They should have a top 20 - The Poseidon Adventure, The Firm, and The Birdcage.

  • @jamesanthonygreen8233

    Thanks! I just got surprised at one thing from 7:49 in Mississippi Burning here. Funny though. There is Cat's Paw (maybe a poster or something at the background) which is a Canadian product by origin but the location of the filming has nothing on Canada. But that actually had me connected to the Fallout game really that piqued my curiosity of the same image as a magazine in the game. It was no magazine in actual.

    Last great actor. Could have a Hackman Top 25 and none would be a dud. Honorable mention;
    Poseidon Adventure (very powerful typical Hackman performance).
    Young Frankenstein (showing how versatile he was doing zany comedy).
    So so many.
