Call me old fashioned, stuck in the past, what have you, but Brian Dennehy's performance as Bobby Knight in 'A Season on the Brink' still gives me shivers and is probably the single most overlooked acting performance by anyone. He really captured the Knight mystique.

I enjoyed his performance as well, but I can't picture him as anything other than Tommy Boy's Dad.

Barry Pepper nailed Earnhardt, I might add.

When Dennehy is mentioned I think of John Wayne Gacy

He did. Was even better as Roger Maris though.

I never really paid attention to him until Cocoon (1985).



I still think of him as the friendly alien.

I love First Blood...but Silverado is one of my favorite movies EVER.

Brian Dennehy, Kevin Kline, Danny Glover, John Cleese, Linda Hunt, Jeff Goldblum (not a huge fan of Costner...but he did a good job in this, too).
