There are a lot of movies in the world. At an increasingly rapid rate, films are being churned out, and when I say churned, I mean it. Many bad movies are clogging up cinema listings, with profit the main aim of the game. Sadly, these terrible projects often tend to drag some great stars down with them. 🎬🍿

That’s not to say that all actors in big blockbusters and box-office hits are giving bad performances. Of course not. But instead, it’s often the case that their finest performance is actually hiding in a movie much less well-known, perhaps an indie movie they made near the start of their career or a hidden gem that simply flew under the radar.

So, from Laura Dern in Smooth Talk to Emily Blunt in My Summer of Love, here are five examples of actors giving their best performances in movies you might not have seen. ⬇️

🗣 “It worked fantastically.”

For the last 45 years and counting, Willem Dafoe‘s eclectic career has been a wonderful thing to behold. One of the few actors who has always kept a foot firmly in the arthouse world, even while working on the biggest blockbusters in the business, he has played countless wildly different characters in movies of all genres, all shot through with that unique Dafoe-ness. 🎥🍿

🗣 “The first time I’d ever been moved.”

If you watch enough movies, and everyone should watch a lot of movies, then occasionally you will see a scene that has the ability to stop you in your tracks and make you think, “This is special”. 🎥✨

It doesn’t happen often; most of the time, if the film is any good, then you’ll be too ensconced in the storyline, but now and then a performance will be so striking that it takes you out of the moment entirely. And one of those moments happens around three-quarters into the movie Pearl, starring Mia Goth.
