Favorite Tim Robbins film?

[Unknown Known]

"The Hudsucker Proxy"

I have so many and "Shawshank Redemption" is also one of my favorites, but I can watch "The Hudsucker Proxy" a million times.

Robbins is fabulous because he has the perfect face for the part and his delivery of his lines is sublime.

Also, kudos to the Coen brothers for such an uplifting script and a musical score that gives me chills!

"You know, for kids!"

1. Shawshank.

and The Player.

[CanuckAmok]

4. "Cradle Will Rock"

a seriously underrated film starring Robbins, Sarandon, Bill Murray, and so many other greats.
Probably the best film about the end of the "New Deal", ever, and a must for all Progressives.

7. Right - spaced on that one!

2. Shawshank Redemption

3. I have to say

Shawshank Redemption.
I just saw Mysic River and he was wonderful, as was the rest of the cast. Clint Eastwood composed the music. A depressing but fine film.

8. Gotta see Mystic River this week!

Tim Robbins has done anything I don't like.

10. Thanks for the recommendation...

I keep picking it up and putting it back on the shelf at the library, but I'm going to check it out tomorrow. Favorite Robbins film so far? There are so many--'The Shawshank Redemption', 'The Player', and 'Bull Durham' would have to be my top three.

11. Howard the Duck. Now that was a movie.

13. He's been in so many good ones.

Jacob's Ladder and Bob Roberts are my favs.

[seventhson]

14. Jacob's Ladder is the BEST!!! Elizabeth Pena is a friend of mine too

AND SHE WAS KINDA HOT AS JEZEBEL!!!

Even mACAULEY cULKIN WAS GOOD.

iT IS A FILM ABOUT THE USE OF HALLUCINOGENICS USED ON OUR BOYS EXPERIMENTALLY IN VIETNAM BASED ON TRUE STORIES. BZ. MKUltra. Making people go into killinmg frenzies.

Robbins is INCREDIBLE and the film is a MUST see.

22. Elizabeth Pena?

Kinda hot?

Where do I go to be friends with her?

Bob Roberts, with the psalm-singing Ashcroft-type, is a truly
frightening movie.

[Bertha Venation]

16. Shawshank Redemption. Hands down best Robbins film. IMO.

[bbernardini]

17. Toss up: Howard the Duck and Bob Roberts

Say what you will about "Howard", the songs are by Thomas Dolby, and Thomas Dolby can do no wrong. So, it is a good film. :)

18. The Player

Brilliant!

[joeybee12]

19. I guess we're going for actor, not director, cuz Dead Man Walking

is obviously the best movie he's been involved in in any capacity.

[ForestsBeatBushes]

21. He's a great director; also did 'Cradle Will Rock' as well as starred

[Kat45]

20. He was great in Mystic River.

Sean Penn's performance is getting most of the attention, but Robbins' performance was much more subtle, and perhaps more powerful.
