    dead zone.

    view to a kill - he made for a pretty awesomely psychotic bond villian.


    i havent seen deerhunter in almost 30 years, but i remember thinking how slow it was and that it was overrated. now that im older and wiser should i revisit? maybe i just didnt get it at the time.

    his performance in that movie where he plays a music producer really hits me emotionally.

    The Deer Hunter and Dead Zone were his best acting roles but my favorite role.

    The True Romance scene is one of my favorite movie scenes of all-time. Pure brilliance by both Walken and Hopper.

    This.

    True Romance is definitely Tarantino’s high point as a writer.

    I was hoping someone would mention Seven Psychopaths. It's not something that typically comes to mind when people think of Walken, but he is SO damn good in it. I was just thinking the other day I need to revisit that movie as it has been a while. Everyone is firing on all cylinders in that one.
