Tom Conti - Shirley Valentine
Stephen Rea - not sure
Jonathan Pryce - I know I should have said something much heavier but I choose Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pear, because he is absolutely genuinly funny in that movie, in the sequels not so much

HIGHLY RECOMMEND Tom Conti is brilliant, you will love The Norman Conquests a trilogy of plays written in 1973 by Alan Ayckbourn, which were first broadcast in 77, Table Manners , Living Together , and Round and Round the Garden. Each of the plays depicts the same six characters over the same weekend in a different part of the house setting... |

Tom Canti - Can't recall having watched anything with him in it. Jonathan Pryce - Not a movie, but I found him very good with the 'dark' humour in the first season of the TV series Taboo (plus, his constantly dropping the F-bomb was always amusing, as I didn't really expect it from him). As far as movies go, I don't think I've particularly liked any of the characters I've seen him play (though he always gave solid performances...except for maybe The Brothers Grimm - that one was a bit OTT). The closest I've come to liking a character he's played would be the PotC movies. Though I'll always remember when I saw him for the first time in that Whoopi Goldberg movie Jumpin' Jack Flash (1986).  Stephen Rea - Interview with the Vampire (1994). He managed to make his character - Santiago - extremely irritating from the very start when he meets Brad Pitt's Louis, and I so very much wanted him dead (this doesn't show the very beginning of the scene, unfortunately)... So it was very satisfying when Louis took his revenge on Santiago towards the end (especially after him being responsible for Claudia's death).
Though the other movie I always remember him from is The Company of Wolves (1984).

I've enjoyed Alain Resnais' films based on stories by Alan Ayckbourn. |

Conti - Shirley Valentine
Pryce - Brazil
Rea - The Crying Game. Though I'd say his best work has been for TV - Shadow Line, UTOPIA, Citizen X
