Consummate
badass actor, born May 13, 1939 in Brooklyn,
New York, best known for such movies as
Mean Streets,
Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore,
Taxi Driver,
Mother, Jugs, & Speed,
The Last Temptation of Christ,
The January Man,
The Two Jakes,
Thelma & Louise,
Bugsy,
Reservoir Dogs,
Sister Act,
Bad Lieutenant,
Point Of No Return,
The Piano,
Rising Sun,
Pulp Fiction,
From Dusk Till Dawn,
Cop Land,
Little Nicky,
Red Dragon,
National Treasure,
Be Cool, and
Inglourious Basterds (only over the phone, but trust us,
you will recognize him). He also played
Gene Hunt in the
American version of
Life on Mars; much like Philip Glenister in the
British original, he was the best thing on the show. A former
United States Marine, he is frequently revered as one of cinema's greatest actors for badass roles that nevertheless require emotional range, possibly equaling
Robert De Niro despite his lack of awards.
