I thought I'd update this thread since Phillip Seymour Hoffman finally won an oscar for Capote.

In my first post I listed some great actors, now I want to list people that are great presence on screen - they just haven't been given a chance to really shine.
The first is Michael Jeter. He was probably the best thing about Water World, and he helped make The Green Mile great. Sadly, He died 3 years ago, but I still enjoy everything I see him in.
Next up is David Morse. He's had some great roles in The Green Mile and The Rock along with many other small supporting roles.
Lastly, Will Patton. He's had some great roles in some not so great movies like Gone in 60 seconds, The Postman, and The Punisher.
Now, you may not see these guys in a movie trailer and say to yourself, "I gotta see that!" but watch some of the movies and I think you'll agree they don't get the credit they deserve.

It seems like every time I think about people to add to this list, they are closely connected to other people on the list.. Just a coincidence..
