i'd probably say Jimmy Conway from Goodfellas with Heat's Neil McCauley a close second, what do you all think?

^^In that order. Nice thread:thumbsup: :wtf: happened to De Niro??? He's abysmal.
 

Ace Bandage

The one and only.
Definitely Jimmy Conway.

Racing is life... anything else is just waiting.
I've seen two of the three versions/cuts of Once Upon a Time in America that I know of. And I really liked DeNiro (and James Woods) in that. But I guess I'd have to go with the Godfather Part II overall.

He was also pretty damn good in Cape Fear as the psycho killer.
 
I enjoy most of his movies, however Mr. DeNiro had a special type of evil in "The Fan", a baseball movie with Wesley Snipes........also Cape Fear is a great example of his acting talent.......
 
I liked him in the Godfather2 movie mainly because of the story of the character he played, Vito. He was humble and he had good reasons for becoming the godfather.

Jimmy Conway al the way, in one of my favourite films.

Virtus Junxit Mors Non Separabit
Jimmy Conway-Jimmy the Gent
Ronin
Neil Mcauley
What about Travis Bickle? Kind of a criminal, vigilante.
 
I went with these roles as my top five:

1. 'Ace' Rothstein - Casino
2. Neil McCauley - Heat
3. Travis Bickle - Taxi Driver
4. Vito Corleone - Godfather II
5. Jimmy Conway - Goodfellas
