Almost Famous. Hoffman talking about being uncool and telling Patrick Fugit to be honest and unmerciful while talking to Fugit over the phone.

"1. Patch Adams. When Robin Williams calls him a prick and Hoffman's angry response to it. I get chills watching this scene."
That was a very defining scene. I wish there was a site with the quotes of that scene because imdb doesnt have it. I just remember it (mostly) when he shouted "This isnt a game for me! This is serious! And if being a prick means saving the life of a patient. I will be the prick!" Now, I am sure I was totally off but the basic principle was there and it was powerfully delivered.

Wow! I've never seen Patch Adams, but PSH was fantastic. I'll watch it in memory of him.

Magnolia-His role as nurse Phil Parma-His acting was so natural and touching, it never ceases to bring tears to my eyes as soon as I see him cryI have a feeling he had the ability to truly become every character he every played by feeling what they felt.

I loved PSH as Lester Bangs in Almost Famous, and his advice to Patrick Fugit's character:
Im always home, Im uncool. The only true currency in this bankrupt world is what you share with someone else when youre uncool.
Wonderful character!

I'd like to add the "You don't know how to behave" scene in 25th Hour. I honestly reckon he should have got more recognition for his performance in that one. He was truly oscar worthy and raised everyone's game - Norton, Pepper, Paquin, etc.

Also, I noticed on another thread someone saying he played mostly weak, effete males. But his performance in "Punch Drunk Love" pretty much destroys that statement.
The shut up scene with Adam Sandler..
