Who's the best film Tough Guy?
I thought I'd start this poll, personally I think you can't beat Clint Eastwood as the best film or TV tough guy actor.
What's your choice? If I've not named someone then please put their names down.  Last edited by kestrelx; 31-05-2012 at 21:57. |

Re: Who's the best film Tough Guy?
Think James Cagney took some beating, unlike Van Damme n Schwartz, he could act as well.
Like Eastwood n Statham on yon. Mickey Rourke wasn't bad either.

Re: Who's the best film Tough Guy?
Kirk Douglas, Spartacus.
Charton Heston, Planet of the Apes. Richard Attenborough, Brighton Rock and The Great Escape, Michael Caine, Get Carter, Mona Lisa. Robert deNiro, almost everything he's done like wise Joe Pesci. Al Pacino, Scarface... I do like Clint though.

Mmm I meant actors who's main output involves action/violence - Richard Attenborough only did a couple that I know of that did this type of film. Same with Michael Caine.  Have you seen Jason Statham "Transporter" series very tough films  Clint can say it all with a look though that's why I put him down as the best. |

Re: Who's the best film Tough Guy?
Charles Bronson. "Do you believe in Jesus, well your going to meet him".
There is one I'm trying to remember, but his name keeps escaping me. He started his working life as a circus trapese artist, before moving into films. Now Ive just typed all this his name came back so I've had to be quick on the edit button Burt Lancaster Last edited by Retlaw; 01-06-2012 at 11:46. |

Re: Who's the best film Tough Guy?
I had a soft spot for Robert Mitchum.
The roles he played weren't always 'action tough guy' but he had an action filled real life past as a boxer and time spent on a chain gang.
