      1980s:
      Anything from 80s is worth watching, with a possible exception of "Homeboy" and maybe "A Prayer for the Dying" which are not that interesting. It's his golden decade.
      1990s and 2000s:
      "White Sands" is an entertaining neo-noir. He had some excellent supporting roles or cameos in some great films such as "The Rainmaker", "Buffalo 66", "Thursday", "Animal Factory" and "The Pledge". 1990s were full of DTV stuff though, I only liked the one called "Fall Time".
      "Killshot" and "Bullet" are also OK. Then there's of course, "Sin City".

            My fav has always been The Pope Of Greenwich Village. I loved him in that.

                I love pretty much all of his work.
                What he does in Rumble Fish really blows me away.
                I've never seen anything quite like it. Even just the little thingshow he acts with his eyes, his expressions, his voice, etc. Just amazing stuff.
                Another one which is kind of an underrated gem ishis very small role in Body Heat.
                It's really the role that introduced Mickey to the world. He had just a couple small scenes, but you couldn't take your eyes off him. He just had some magnetic screen presence, and left you wanting more.

                  The Pope Of Greenwich Village - his best performance I think
                  Diner - close second
                  The Wrestler
                  Angel Heart
                  and his brief appearance in Body Heat steals the show imho.
                  "Somebody showed me a picture, and I just laughed
                  Dignity never been photographed."

                    There's a wide variety there, I'm sure you'll find at least a few gems you'll enjoy The Pledge deserves a mention eventhough he's only in it for 2 minutes, but still manages to blow you away wit1c84h his performance
