The Wrong Man was Peter Fonda's best work. You don't believe me? Go to The Wrong Man site and read the comments. That is where I saw that nugget of information. I looked it up. Peter Fonda was around 16 when The Wrong Man was filmed.

3:10 to Yuma. Not a perfect film but Fonda, Ben Foster, Crowe and Bale are all good. Fonda is so badass he takes a bullet in the belly (art imitating life) and is up, about, and badass approximately 3 minutes later. It's really a classic Western

Theatrical films, top and bottom four:

1. Easy Rider
2. 3:10 to Yuma
3. Ulee's Gold
4. The Hired Hand

5. Spasms
6. The Wild Angels
7. The Cannonball Run
8. Certain Fury

My favorite is OPEN SEASON with John Phillip Law & Richard Lynch. I know Peter has remarked that it is one of his favorites, I think he is brilliant in the role and more wears it like a 2nd skin more than acting. His performance is easily the most frightening of the three, it totally plays against his established character but at the same time seems so natural.
I also really really like RACE WITH THE DEVIL, there is something about Peter Fonda doing the driving while Warren Oates pumping a shotgun that has a big red stamp on it that says 'COOL!'
I am also strangely drawn to JUNGLE HEAT/DANCE OF THE DWARVES (horror is my bag) with those scenes of him padding around the jungle in a white linen suit.
And of course DIRTY MARY CRAZY LARRY, what a great team!

What? no Escape from LA?
Just kidding

Gotta be "Supernova." Just saw it on the Hallmark Channel.

i enjoyed "race with the devil" i've heard good things about "92 in the shade" i love the films he did with warren oates.

I'm a huge drive-in movie fan, so my all-time favorite Peter Fonda films are "Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry," "Race With the Devil," "Fighting Mad," and "Outlaw Blues." Both "The Hired Hand" and "Ulee's Gold" are beautiful films, "92 in the Shade" is absolutely hilarious, and "Dance of the Dwarves" is good trashy B-horror creature feature fun. Moreover, "The Limey" is a truly terrific movie and "The Wild Angels" rates as a truly kick-ass biker classic.

The only place I have found copies of "Peppermint-Frieden" for sale is here:
http://www.dfi.dk/sitemod/moduler/katalog/filmside.asp?pid=8670&filmid=13502
(click "kb film")
It's a PAL-VHS, and in the original language (German).

Thanks for the "Peppermint Frieden" tip!
I just checked it out here on IMDB and saw it had a user rating of 8.1! That is VERY high, actually the same as the # 100 on the top 100 movies of all time. (But with only 30 votes it won't be on that list, of course).
Whare did that movie hide for all those years? Now, I just need to figure out where to get hold of it. Does anyone know where?

Yes, you have already mentioned some of my favourites, including THE HIRED HAND, EASY RIDER, THE LIMEY and ULEE'S GOLD.
I also like PEPPERMINT FRIEDEN a lot. I think it's sad so few Americans seem to know that one. Probably because it is not common to watch foreign language movies (in this case, German) with subtitles, in the USA. You are really missing a lot of great movies, I think!

Easy Rider
The Trip
The Wild Angels
ima sucker for the hippy stuff, but he was just so right in all of those parts.

I must agree with you
The Hired Hand: I was thrilled when I heard The Hired Hand was coming to DVD and that Sundance gave it so much attention, it came out beautifully. This was a wonderfully directed movie, very rarely do all the pieces come together. Music, acting, directinga gem! I can't believe it never got more attention.
Lilith was an ok movie, I only watch it a while back for Peter Fonda's performance and he didn't disappoint. The look on his face (when Warren Beatty took out the box PF made for Lilith and set it on the table) was classic.
Ulee's Gold, perfect performance and deserved the Oscar, sorry Jack.
Easy Rider: I can't stand Dennis Hopper, he reminds me of Mayor McCheese and I don't think he's a good director. I would have rather seen what Peter Fonda could have done with it. I think it's a classic because of the subject matter, very interesting to me because I wasn't born until 1973 so it was cool to see how things were. Peter Fonda owns that movie.
The Limey, was good because of both Peter Fonda and Terrence Stamp. Leslie Ann Warren was a bit annoying but overall good, especially the direction. He played a sleaz very well, almost too well.
Honorable mentions, Futureworld, Fighting Mad, Tammy and the Doctor and The Trip.

You picked his bis best five. The Wild Angels is interesting (mostly because of Bruce Dern as The Loser). The Last Movie (by Dennis Hopper) is work a look to film buffs. His worst - Tammy and the Doctor.
