... Dusk Till Dawn? (1996) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0116367/
I watched it by accident, about a week ago, for the first time. (Late night, early morning red beers and chronic...) It's a Tarantino film. Good performances by the main characters, including George Clooney, Quentin Tarantino, Juliette Lewis, Salma Hayek, Cheech Marin and Harvey Keitel.
It's a surprisingly good film considering its alt grindhouse genre, but then, I like all Quentin Tarantino films. I really think this might be one of George Clooney's better performances.
Not a film for everyone. Check it out, Warren...

DiCaprio is a good bet: he's a genius, really..and a dark horse: McConaughey

I think I did, a long time ago. It's like a vampire/mystical zombie type deal, right?

I enjoyed PS, but I wouldn't ever say he was the "best male actor" of my generation.

He hasn't done anything to challenge his chops, lately, but Robert Downey Jr. is very good.

I agree with you about Crowe, but he rarely makes movies that I'm interested in seeing

I hope that Hoffman's death means that Vincent D'Onofrio will now get more work
