This man can do anything. He is wonderful. I flew to London in 2006 to see him on stage in As You Desire Me. I TOTALLY agree with this list, and SO happy you have Felicia's Journey on it. I consider it his BEST performance EVER, Twenty Four Seven being a close second. I am so sad and unhappy his has this disease. After such a magnificent career it seems so unfair. I hope he is well, and is enjoying his time with his family. What an idol of mine. I love the man.

His performance was remarkable, and I am glad you mentioned this rather obscure entry in his career.

Nope. Get over yourselves.

A terrific actor, and wonderful guy who went to the ends of the earth to support young filmmakers and upcoming talent. Best of luck to him with his condition, and he will be dearly missed onscreen.

'Nuff said.

(Though I agree with every single choice on here, especially Felicia's Journey. Hoskins will be missed, but never forgotten!) x
