Title: Actors you like but hated in certain roles
Post by: Trevor on September 07, 2024, 09:18:20 AM
For me there are two:

Florence Pugh as Yelena: when she was beating up Hawkeye I was actually screaming at my screen.

David Schwimmer as Captain Herbert Sobel in Band of Brothers: what a piece of crap Sobel was portrayed as and he was actually worse in real life.  :buggedout:

If I dislike a character, they are obviously doing a great acting job. Sam Rockwell and Doug Hutchison come to mind in The Green Mile (1999). Especially Doug Hutchison as Percy. What a piece of s**t, what an amazing performance.

Doug Hutchison's character was a real POS indeed.

David Hess in LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT (1973) and just about any other movie. He's always plain fvcking evil in just about everything and he's really good at it!

I mean I think William H Macy is fantastic in FARGO but his actual character is a total loser... so does that count? bit confused...

No particular opinion of Macy, but I really hated Edmund... Couldn't even finish the movie....

there was some very niche local slang when I was growing up, which seemed to only exist in our village and a few surrounding ones.... if someone was 'in a hess' or 'getting hessy' it meant they were really angry. never heard this word used for that meaning (or any other meaning) since then... but whenever I see David Hess's name I automatically think 'angry guy', lol

you're right he totally nails that nasty villain character... iirc there's one flick which I think he plays a good guy. think it might be BODY COUNT, not 100% sure
