What's this about? I hope it's about Cooper trying to unretire DDL so that they'd co-star in Spielberg's Bullitt

That's not crazy. It's fucking batshit insane.

Scorsese teased doing one more collab with DDL while onstage before getting presented best director from him at nbr. Think he was just having some fun but was still a nice moment.

The crowd went wild with that Scorsese tease. Maybe The Wager has room for a Day-Lewis return?

Things this board jizzes about that pacinoyes is still waiting for - 2016-now: Denzel Washington winning a 3rd Oscar or passing Nicholson in Oscar nods or getting a BAFTA nod - also doing a really successful comedy........... * DDL coming back * Any American male winning the Triple Crown or winning more Triple Crown awards as a TC winner than Pacino * Rafael Nadal being the tennis Grand Slam King Yeah - I hate me too, but what can you do - I mean, I'm pretty impressive, and when they ^ happen I'll admit I'm wrong but for now ...... just laughing..........

I wonder if Scorsese wants him in the new Jesus film or give him a part in The Wager but i highly doubt that he would come back just to play second field to DiCaprio.

DiCaprio would never let that happen again. He protected himself against Nicholson in The Departed because he learned his lesson.

I mean you could argue that it happened with Django where Waltz stole his thunder, or even in Killers, where Gladstone stole his thunder.

Or Lawrence in Don't Look Up. Hell, even though he won the Oscar for The Revenant, there's a huge contingent that think Tom Hardy stole that movie. DiCaprio is not this unassailable monolith.

Agree, I like Leo a lot, much more than I did years ago, but I often find myself preferring most of his co-actors. Not saying he was better in Killers but even really naturalistic character actors like Ty Mitchell ( not sure if he regularly acts) I find myself more compelled by.

Even overlooking my obvious distaste for the leading performance in that movie, the one thing I loved about Killers was how Scorsese coaxed such great work from non-actors like Mitchell and Jason Isbell.

I don't really agree with any of these examples. Plenty of people thought Leo and Sam Jackson were far better than Waltz, that Leo was better than Pitt, Gladstone, Lawrence etc. Nobody thinks Leo was as good or better than DDL in GoNY, in part because the role just wasn't there and he took a more deferential part in the production given that he and Scorsese didn't know each other very well yet.

Never a healthy or logical way to look at actors/ acting/films/ Art in that competetive way - but I totally get why people do it (I do it - I say it about Paul Dano sucking in TWBB constantly ) in fact great actors do it all the time even themselves even....... but no one really should do that logically......they (all) aren't playing the same parts and don't have the same goals and burdens. At one time on MAR I've read Kitty Winn "steals" Panic In Needle Park from Pacino, that Vicky Krieps "made" Phantom Thread not DDL and Gerard Depardieu's (usually female) co-stars are "mostly" "better than him" Not only would I argue all that as untrue (as fine as those co-stars are) ......I would say if you avoid comparisons like that you can assess all performances in a more interesting way and the co-star comparisons cut off deeper thinking......but yeah it's easy to fall into that trap and like I said I do it too...... Side note: - One of the ways you can judge an actor is in how much they don't try to steal a project from other actors.......I've talked about this before: People think "charisma" is a kind of acting.......maybe / not exactly......but it's certainly far less than turning OFF charisma successfully is ....

I think people are never really assessing performances in the same way. Let's take The Departed. I think most people would say DiCaprio and Damon had the most substantial and richest performances in the movie, but that yes, Wahlberg was very amusing and stood out in his own way because he was a fount of ace one-liners. Did he steal the movie because of that? I would say no. Similar to Wiig and Rose Byrne vs. McCarthy in Bridesmaids. Yes, one got the Oscar nomination, but stealing a film implies to me rendering your castmates less luminous by contrast. It's less about being surprisingly good and more about utterly dominating the proceedings regardless of the history of the actors in question. Something like Imogen Poots in Fright Night is to me "stealing the movie".

I think people are never really assessing performances in the same way. Very much true - there is no way that an actor you've seen a handful of times isn't both rewarded and punished for being "comparatively" new to an actor with 40 performances that you'v developed a rapport with either...........or that has grown stale by seeing them so much .......... This "comparing actors in the same movie" thing is very much a "reducing Art to Sports" thing imo - like saying "if Joe Louis fought Ali" and stuff like that........it's fun, but takes the conversation some place else from where the discussion originated
