No actor can control his role like De Niro. The greatest thing about him is that he can reinvent himself with an iron will, gain 60 pounds for it, or really spend a month in prison or slum. In short, he can do anything for this role unequivocally. If he is allowed to play the devil, then he will definitely look for the population of hell. That's why he became an "actor's mentor". Everyone from sean penn to DiCaprio followed his example, but most people who imitate "De Niro's ignorance" are actually just learning his fur, or just pretending to be cool, because you have to have De Niro's will-first remould yourself for the role, and then dedicate your soul to it.

De Niro created an "artistic myth" in his 30-year acting career, so that some films were still embarrassing when we selected his top ten classics until they were published. First of all, there is no doubt about the candidates for the five major films, because they are all among the 65,438+000 greatest films in history selected by American film critics. Of course, De Niro is the only actor selected for five films, which is very convincing. Our main consideration for the other five films is that they are representatives of different styles; As a result, masterpieces such as cape fear (1999) failed to make the list, among which De Niro had two pairs of plastic surgery, which made the vengeful prisoner even more frightening. This spirit of courage and sacrifice deserves special mention.
