Was coming here to post this.

In the modern era True Romance

Christian Slater
Patricia Arquette
Dennis Hopper
Val Kilmer
Gary Oldman
Brad Pitt
Christopher Walken
Bronson Pinchot
Samuel L. Jackson
Michael Rapaport
Saul Rubinek
Conchata Ferrell
James Gandolfini
Victor Argo
Paul Bates
Chris Penn
Tom Sizemore

an underrated one I feel like is School Ties:

Brendan Fraser
Matt Damon
Chris O'Donnell
Cole Hauser
Ben Affleck
Anthony Rapp

It's not nearly as good as some of these above, but I always like it because it's before any of these guys were "stars"
