I've always liked his Mission Impossible role - he had none of the usual physical characteristics to play an impressive/threatening bad guy, but he was oddly chilling just via his acting skills.

I had a bit of a casino gambling habit a while back, and if I lost I would lie about it. When I saw Phillip Seymour Hoffman do the same in Owning Mahowney, I gained a respect for his acting that never wavered.

Along Came Polly. Terrible movie but Hoffman truly steals every scene he's in. I love the part when he slips and falls.
Yes. I love the part where he's rehearsing with the community theater and he starts to sing when it's supposed to be another cast member's turnand he gives the speech about him being the 'big star' and if he feels like doing something spontaneous, they have to let him have "the freedom to rock out."
But he was magnificent in
Capote
.

@dani8 Absolutely, Gust had the best lines in that movie, all delivered with a terrific deadpan by PSH. "The mules are getting better healthcare than the Afghans."

His character Dusty in
Twister
. Definitely one of the highlights of an awesome movie, and a person that I'd genuinely enjoy hanging out with. In fact, I once met a drunk passenger (some college kid) on an Amtrak train in southern California who looked and acted almost exactly like Dusty, and I instantly felt comfortable socializing with him because I'd seen
Twister
so many times. The guy was one of those 'happy drunks', and it was a blast to sit there and enjoy his inebriated commentary. It was almost like meeting the real character, and the experience has always enhanced my viewing of
Twister
. Rest in peace, Phillip. You were a truly gifted actor, and you will be missed.

Almost Famous
Opie had just got his story retracted by Rolling Stone and Stillwater. The phone call between Lester Bang and Opie is a classic.

Cold Mountain and The Master is where he stood out for me. Along came polly which I hated was only good when I saw his scenes and of course the last movie I saw him in was hunger games.Very good actor. I will miss him!

The part when he throws a hot pan in Jack Goes Boating and locks himself in the toilet.

He was extremely good at doing a pratfall in this clip..

He could quite easily upstage anyone from the Frat Pack.
