Ping.
De Niro was too obvious with his frustration with the actress cringing at her line readings. But he treated Jodie Foster, only 13 at the time, like a queen.
I can’t stand De Niro. He’s a frikkin’ pig.
Every Press briefing ought to start with one of these incidents-— “Crazy coke-head Bobby, etc...”
He is. But damnit, that doesn’t take away from his work. Anybody will agree that he is one of the greatest actors in cinema history. But he’s pissing it away though.
His acting in meet the rockers sucked. He don’t talk thai.
Is he a great actor or someone who gamed the play.
“Anybody will agree that he is one of the greatest actors in cinema history.”
I don’t.
I don’t think De Niro’s a “good” actor at all. All he ever plays is the same asshole in every movie. It’s not acting, it’s who and what he is.
At least it’s who he THINKS he is. A real tough guy. A regular “wise guy”. But I’ll bet he’s a total coward in real life though.
“I dont think De Niros a good actor at all.”
Seriously? He made Godfather II a classic.

Not me.
They were/are both great actors.

F Robert De Niro.
Pacino made that movie a classic. Anyone could have done De Niros role.
Spencer Tracy, Paul Muni, Humphrey Bogart, Claude Rains — these were great actors. De Niro wouldn’t have qualified to tote their jock straps.
De Niro was a lousy actor and I’ll tell you why.
My Uncle Dante could have played the part just as easily. Or my Uncle Guido could have played it.
He was only drawing from the old Italian way of talking and behaving...nothing more, nothing less.
My whole family could have done better. It pains me to have people think he did something wonderful. And my family were decent people, not the horrible caricature of De Niro. I hate that man for what he made Italians look like.
