Kevin Spacey’s Best Acting Performances In Recent Memory
One actor who has made his presence felt in Hollywood is Kevin Spacey. Spacey has starred in a multitude of films, ranging from comedic to serious. There is no doubt that he prefers to star in dramas over comedies however. At this point, it seems that Spacey only chooses roles that he is happy doing, and does not seem to be working for the money.
What are the best Kevin Spacey movies of all time? Here are my favorites.
One film that I would definitely say is one of the better Kevin Spacey films is the Usual Suspects. In this movie, Spacey plays Verbal, a crippled man who is a suspect in a crime, however he rarely speaks, hence the ironic nickname. This role nabbed Spacey an Academy Award.
Another film that definitely has to be on any best-of Kevin Spacey list is American Beauty. This was the film that won the talented actor an Academy Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role. This is definitely a movie worth seeing.
Another great Spacey movie is Outbreak. In this movie, Spacey stars as Major Casey Schuler. This movie has an all star cast which also includes, but is not limited to, Morgan Freeman, Rene Russo, Dustin Hoffman, Cuba Gooding Jr, Patrick Dempsey and Donald Sutherland.
Seven, or Se7en as it is properly spelled, is another movie that definitely makes the list. This is a small role for Spacey, but quite the powerful one. If you have never seen this movie and enjoy crime thrillers, this is one of the better ones out there.
I would be remiss to make a list of the best Kevin Spacey movies without giving praise to The Life Of David Gale. This is such a powerful film from beginning to end. Easily one of my favorite films of his.
These are just some of the greatest movies that have starred or featured Kevin Spacey.
