Tilda absolutely killed it in We Need to Talk About Kevin. She just missed my top 15.
I've been meaning to check out Melancholia for ages now. Is the movie itself really good?
I've only seen 3 episodes of The Shield so far, and Goggins is very good, but I'm surprised he tops Chiklis (and that he doesn't make it in the top 10). -

It's good, but I didn't love it as much as others do. It's a slow-burn. And when I say that, I mean it's
slooooow
, especially in the first half. It's possibly the best depiction of depression I've ever seen in film, and it's brilliant and beautiful in many ways, but it's one that I had some trouble getting all the way through. Dunst was my favorite thing about the movie.
Of the two LVT movies I've seen, I thought
Dogville
was much better. (I consider that one to be a masterpiece.)
I've only seen 3 episodes of The Shield so far, and Goggins is very good, but I'm surprised he tops Chiklis (and that he doesn't make it in the top 10).
Chiklis probably cracks my top 20 or something like that, though I may also rank Pounder over him.
Goggins is absolutely breathtaking in the last three seasons. He didn't impress me much at first, but I swear he gets better and better with every episode. Chiklis, on the other hand, is stagnantly very good for the entire series.
Friends don't lie.
