    Leon is such a good movie. One of the first of the Oldman unhinged performances I can remember.

      That and Bram Stokers Dracula were my introductions to him and some of my favorite characters to this day. He just completely owns the roles and defines the characters in ways nobody else can. He can be completely over the top and at the same time be completely believable. Gary Oldman is a great fuckin actor and any movie he’s in automatically gets chance from me.
