French Connection, love Popeye
Gene Hackman is my dad's fave. I personally love how he's always a bit of an ass hole even when he's one of the good guys.
He can play arrogance very well. I won't try to name all of his roles that I liked.
A particularly good one was in Runaway Jury. 
That movie had a big name cast but he still stood out.

He was also hilarious as Lex Luthor.

I remember when he got into a fight some years ago with a couple Marines.  Apparently kicked their asses.  Here's to tough old dudes.

I'm a muy caliente kinda guy myself.




That makes two of us then .


In seriousness though, voted for Dog Day Afternoon because it's the only one from the list I've seen, so I probably shouldn't have voted but I did anyway.

Have only seen a few Lumet films, Serpico, 12 Angry Men, and Dog Day Afternoon but I've loved all of them.


The Holy Mountain, The French Connection, Blow Up, Slaughterhouse 5, and The Fisher King are all ones I've been wanting to find on dvd for awhile, never have come across them (yet).

Oh boy you're in for a treat with The Holy Mountain if you ever get your hands on it! I remember your movie poll from a little while back and coupled together with what you generally go for in music and your funny bone, then I think it's probably certain to say that you're going to enjoy the heck out of it. One of the most surreal flicks out there yet also one of the most beautifully staged. 
Acid, Carl Jung and 'dream states'.

Success?

You've been chosen to go about amending your ways in the old wine shed, where you shall watch these magnificent movies on VHS. No HD television either for you boyo.

I've wanted to get my hands any Alejandro Jodorowsky film really. I know I'd love'em, anything surreal, strange, or off the wall and I'll probably get some enjoyment out of it.
