Favorite performance from Steve McQueen, Robert Mitchum, and Lee Marvin? Three actors I always enjoy watching.

It's more the movie and the character but: Point Blank for me ........that was the existential crime thriller of its day pre-Heat .......it's also one of those movies that some people see as flat and "old" .....and other people see as daring and modern ........you can read and mis-read that whole movie, in many ways .........in fact the movie might not even be "really" happening at all.......it could all be a death-dream..... Marvin is in a way like Vince Hanna on the opposite side of the law.........he's relentless and iconic...........it's unquestionably as much as a guy's movie that I can think of.....and it's exceptionally smart too.......it's also like a non-Western, Western ..........like High Plains Drifter........basically if I find somebody who gets Point Blank, I can pretty much tell you we'd agree on a lot of things about life tbh  |

McQueen - Junior Bonner
Mitchum - The Night of the Hunter (with like a dozen runners-up, Mitchum is a colossus)
Marvin - The Big Red One (just make sure to go with the director's cut)
