He took on a short role as an IRS agent and managed to make him both brutally blunt and compassionate at the same time. Phillip Baker Hall is just so incredible, Magnolia is my favorite film, so I don't think I have to say anything else. Also, he was stupendous in Hard Eight as well, yes, I'm a PTA fanboy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 There have been various slight deviations of this thread, which is why I haven't dropped Richard Harris in Unforgiven and J.T. Walsh in Slingblade yet. There hasn't been a P4P best ensemble in a film thread that I can remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supremebve Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 DeNiro in American Hustle was pretty much perfect. Samuel L. Jackson in Coming to America. Nadine Velazquez in Flight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I'll go with Papillon Soo Soo aka Me Love You Long Time because really you can't top that as an actress. You have to just walk away from the business on a high note. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a perfect combination of casting and performance for a character that wasn't on screen for even 10 minutes. What have been some other great performances with minimal screen/TV time? You could probably name John Goodman for a few of these. My favourite is Inside Llewyn Davis....a film I absolutely hated except for the probably <10 minutes he was in it. Seriously, just make the movie about his heroin addict jazz man, rather than Llewyn moping around for 2 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phillip Baker Hall is also literally the only funny thing in Larry David's Sour Grapes. His scene is less than two minutes, and I bought the movie out of a bargain bin solely for it. And not to give a double meaning to the question, but Peter Dinklage steals his few scenes in Living in Oblivion, one of his early if not first roles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.T. Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 The passing of Michael Parks reminded me of how he pretty much stole the first ten minutes of From Dusk Til Dawn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 He had a tendency to do that. Esteban in Kill Bill Vol. 2 was another one. Speaking of which, this is something I've always wondered: did Beatrix kill him or let him live? He did draw her the map. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's crazy that the two non-featured actors in that scene are Michael Parks and John fucking Hawkes. On 5/9/2017 at 10:04 PM, elizium said: You could probably name John Goodman for a few of these.

Speaking of Tarantino, Don Johnson's combined 5 minutes' screentime in Django was pretty great. I can never again hear the name Jerry without thining, "treat him like you would Jerry!"
