Neville in Harry Potter films



Pretty well the whole supporting characters in that film Zedlen.

Like the fella says, in Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock."



Lord, there used to be so many fine character actors who used to show up in film after film after film, one of the best benefits of the old studio system. Most members of this forum probably don't even remember such greats as Slim Pickens, Chill Wills, Thomas Mitchell, Royal Dano, John Dehner, Noah Berry Jr. (or his dad Noah Sr. and uncle Wallace), John Qualen, Ken Curtis, James Best, Adlo Ray, L.Q. Jones, Barton MacLane, Elisha Cook Jr., Dean Jagger, James Griffith, Hugh Griffith, Harry Dean Stanton, Arthur Kennedy, Strother Martin, Walter Brennan, Marjorie Main, Andy Devine, Beula Bondi, Robert Morely, Bernard Gorcy, Alfonso Bedoya, James Gleason, Billie Burke, Harry Andrews, Alice Ghostley, Louis Calhern, Gloria Grahame, Harry R. (Tim) Moore, "Cuddles" Sakall, Ned Glass, William Fawcett, William Demorest, William Frawley, Verna Felton, Hank Worden, Henry Silva, Edgar Buchanan, Chief Dan George, Donald Crisp, Dick York, Dick Wesson, Charlie Ruggles, Sessue Hayakawa, Arthur Hunnicutt, Will Sampson. However, they probably know relative newcomers like William H. Macy and R. Lee Ermey.

I'll probably think of more later.



Welcome to the human race...
I can't see myself failing to remember Harry Dean Stanton.

Will your system be alright, when you dream of home tonight?
Well George Carlin only has a handful of scenes in Kevin Smith's Dogma. And he's just hilarious.

Ah, but can you remember him in his early really small parts in films like Day of the Evil Gun?

That's really true, but Martini stood out for me because he is such a contrast to DeVito these days and hes so much fun to watch.



Good whiskey make jackrabbit slap de bear.


Kitty Farmer from Donnie Darko.

"I'll tell you what he said! He asked to forcibly insert the Lifeline exercise card into my anus!"

"Do you even know who Graham Greene is?"
"I think we've all seen Bonanza,".

Hate to go the Coen Brothers route, but who didn't like Donny in The Big Lebowski? He adds basically nothing to the film, but he's hilarious.

You need to watch Sons of Anarchy then. He has quite a big role in season 2.
