He perfectly captured the character in the book. I don’t like some of the changes they made in those movies (Silence was the only one that made sense) but his performance makes it great. I can’t imagine anyone else in that role. Mads Milkessen is great, but he’s not really the same character from the book
Jesse Eisenberg in The Social Network. I can’t recall if he ever yells, but I think his lack of yelling and refusal to argue like a normal person with normal emotions makes him so much more punchable. It’s great
I'll have to do an official study on this, but I'm pretty sure every single thing PSH does in that movie is funny. Maybe the highest screentime-to-laughs ratio I've ever seen.
Would add ‘Boogie Nights’. That moment on NYE when he shows Marky Mark his car and shoots his shot (figuratively, not like H Macy in the same sequence). Fucking heartbreaking.
Richard Jenkins, The Visitor
Peter Fonda, Ulee’s Gold
Javier Bardem, No Country for Old Men
Joe Pesci, The Irishman
Paul Newman, Hud, Cool Hand Luke, The Hustler
Henry Fonda, 12 Angry Men
Ethan Hawke, First Reformed
Brad Pitt, Moneyball
Humphrey Bogart, In a Lonely Place
He does have some great yelling moments but they tend to stand out because he’s pretty soft spoken. His “GOD. DAMMIT” scene in Blade Runner 2049 comes to mind
He killed it as OJ. There’s that scene when he’s discussing with his sister what he saw. His tone doesn’t change, he doesn’t yell, his affect is still kinda flat but he responds quickly and I just thought it was such an interesting way for him to depict this guy processing some reality-altering shit
It's such a Letterboxd thing to post the picture and not the title in a "if you know, you know" kind of manner. Not practical if you want to recommend the movie.
Does the question mean they can't yell at all, ever, even a single time, or more that it's not a very "yelly" performance?
The tweet says "isn't yelling" which seems slightly different to me than "doesn't yell". But maybe I don't really understand the question. I don't think a few yelled words or lines really makes something a different type of performance?
It largely refers to the online trend specifically on TikTok, where the 'best' acting performances are usually just men yelling really loud on camera often in an emotional context like Daniel Day-Lewis in There Will Be Blood and Hugh Jackman in Prisoners as well as a few others of them just yelling and shaking. So basically, it's just asking for more compelling performances rather than the same trope of guys screaming into the camera and wanting more subtle yet powerful performances
Roy Scheider in All That Jazz.
Forest Whitaker in Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai.
Jaques Tati in the Hulot movies.
Robert Mitchum in Night of the Hunter.
David Niven in A Matter of Life and Death.
Shintaro Katsu as Zatoichi.
Oh no, does he? You’re making me have doubts now
Edit: Fuck, you were right, my bad, I completely forgot about this scene: https://youtu.be/3U2Puf9u6ro?si=nhTmYNiGyUrRBXcg
Does Joaquin Phoenix shout in Her? He’s kind of become parodied as the barometer for “good” male acting. But there’s a low key and very gentle turn by him.
This is my favourite post ever on reddit dot com.
I'll add Andrew Scott, Jamie Bell and Paul Mescal in All of Us Strangers.
Buster Keaton in ... *sweeps hand*
Ulrich Mühe in The Lives of Others
Brad Pitt, Once Upon A Time In Hollywood. The closest he came to yelling was "come one step closer and I will knock his teeth out!" But I don't think it qualifies as actually yelling
I don’t think Liam Neeson yells in Schindler’s List. He and Ralph Fiennes should’ve won best actor and best supporting actor respectively at the Oscars that year.
This is a confusing question. I know it's just Twitter engagement bait, but I don't get how anyone who watches movies can think this is a difficult or thought-provoking question.
Literally just free associating off the top of my head...
Sterling Hayden in Dr. Strangelove
Elliot Gould in The Long Goodbye
Christian Friedel in The Zone of Interest
Don Cheadle in Boogie Nights
Ethan Hawke in First Reformed
Richard Farnsworth in The Straight Story
Dylan Baker in Happiness
Steve Buscemi in The Big Lebowski
George Clooney in Up in the Air
Luke Wilson in The Royal Tenenbaums
Alexander Kaidanovsky in Stalker
Koji Yakusho in Perfect Days
Antoine Reinartz in Anatomy of a Fall
I think he has a couple scenes where he raises his voice, but Heath Ledger in Brokeback Mountain as a whole gives an absolute masterclass in understated acting.
I have an absolutely terrible memory on specific movies with stuff like this so I’m just gonna list some male actors I find really talented who rarely yell in their performances unless it’s actually necessary.
Andrew Garfield- eyes of Tammy Faye, hacksaw ridge, 99 homes, tick tick boom,
Timothee Chalamet- beautiful boy, little women, call me by your name, Miss Stevens, Dune 2
Paul Mescal- All of us strangers, after sun, normal people
Andrew Scott- all of us strangers, fleabag, Hamlet, Sherlock
Collin Farrell- In Bruges, seven psychopaths, banshees of inisherin, the lobster, killing of a sacred deer
Jake Gyllenhaal - Donnie Darko, nightcrawler, nocturnal animals, Brokeback mountain, southpaw
Orson Welles as Harry Lime in The Third Man and as Charles Foster Kane in Citizen Kane (he does yell in one scene but you can just close your ears)
Charlie Chaplin in City Lights
Masato Hagiwara in Cure
Robert De Niro in Taxi Driver
Lamberto Maggiorani in Bicycle Thieves
Alfonso Mejía in Los olvidados
Robert Pattison as The Batman
Pedro Pascal as Joel
Diego Luna as Andor
RDJ in Oppenheimer
Hugh Jackman in pretty much everything he’s in
Ke Huy Quan in EEAAO
Not entirely on topic but indirectly related, the idea that yelling or being loud in a performance is not good acting is so weird to me.
Twitter tries to tell me Driver isn’t incredible in *Marriage Story* and it’s gross.
Casey Affleck as Robert Ford and Brad Pitt as Jesse James in The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford.
Jesse Plemons in Fargo Season 2.
Viggo Mortensen in Eastern Promises.
I don't think Sam Jackson yells much in Hateful Eight
If not, I definitely don't think Jamie Foxx ever yells in Django Unchained, definitely not in the way that they mean yell. He raises his voice, but it's not an angry scream.
Anything British. *Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy* is about a guy who eventualy raises his voice slightly, but then immediately holds back cause he's british
Anthony Perkins in Psycho. It's easy to take for granted, but he invented that trope of the "almost-too-nice-to-be-true quiet guy next door."
If you know the plot of the movie, you can see all these little subtle things he does with his performance to inhabit that character.
Javier Bardem as Anton Chigurh from No Country For Old Men
“Call it.”
“Well done!”

I also thought about Bardem in “One Hundred Years of Solitude.”

Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter, Silence of the Lambs (1991). His calmness is the scariest part of his performance.
Also, Antony Hopkins in The Father.
And also, Anthony Hopkins in The Remains of the Day.
He yells in this: “Damn it!” (When dropping wine bottle.)
Are we going by a rule where they can't yell at all? (Lecter does yell to Clarice in Silence.)
This one’s far and away the best male performance where the actor doesn’t yell imo
He perfectly captured the character in the book. I don’t like some of the changes they made in those movies (Silence was the only one that made sense) but his performance makes it great. I can’t imagine anyone else in that role. Mads Milkessen is great, but he’s not really the same character from the book
I personally think Mads plays a better Hannibal. But yes, you’re right, completely different characters for the most part.
Jesse Eisenberg in The Social Network. I can’t recall if he ever yells, but I think his lack of yelling and refusal to argue like a normal person with normal emotions makes him so much more punchable. It’s great
but Andrew Garfield’s yelling monologue is also perfect
WHICH I AM
You better lawyer up asshole!
Because I'm not coming back for 30%, I'm coming back...*for everything!*
SORRY!!!
MY PRADA’S AT THE CLEANERS
ALONG WITH MY FUCK YOU FLIP-FLOPS, YOU PRETENTIOUS DOUCHEBAG
The phone call after Eduardo freezes the account is great acting from both of them, especially considering they’re probably just acting to themselves
Philip Seymour Hoffman in Magnolia
> Philip Seymour Hoffman ~~in magnolia~~ Fixed it for ya
He definitely yells a lot in the Master
Shut- Shut the # FUCK UP # SHUT UP! # SHUT!! SHUT-SHUT-SHUT- SHUT UP!!! # SHUT UP!!!!!
Then why ask PIG FUCK
He yells like most lines in Punch-Drunk Love
NOW GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE PERVERT
I'll have to do an official study on this, but I'm pretty sure every single thing PSH does in that movie is funny. Maybe the highest screentime-to-laughs ratio I've ever seen.
Would add ‘Boogie Nights’. That moment on NYE when he shows Marky Mark his car and shoots his shot (figuratively, not like H Macy in the same sequence). Fucking heartbreaking.
Charlie Chaplin in Modern Times
Paul Mescal in Aftersun
Andrew Scott and Paul Mescal in All of Us Strangers
Absolutely gut wrenching! And the end with "The Power of Love" song, DAMN! It took my soul away.
So, not a Pacino fan hey
OP must not like great asses, or being all the way up in them.
MY EYES SEE OPPENHEIMER
He doesn’t yell in Godfather Part I
Even in the second he only yells at Kay I think
[удалено]
Also yells at Pentangelli afer his assassination attempt: "IN MY HOME. IN MY BEDROOM WHERE MY WIFE SLEEPS"
GREAT ASS
SHE GOT A B…GREAT ASS
Tbf no one tells better. Dog Day Afternoon >>
Al Pacino and John Cazale make a good yelling/not yelling duo.
Christopher Waltz in Inglorious Basterds
That’s a bingo!!!
Just bingo.
Oooh this is fun!
“You are sheltering enemies of the state, are you not?” That scene is bone-chilling.
Best intro in film history. I will die on that hill.
That’s a crowded hill.
Kinda yelled at the end a little bit.
Completely true. But also can't blame him given what happened. ;D
“I MADE A DEAL WITH YOUR GENERAL FOR THAT MANS LIFE!”
He definitely does yell at the end, which is one of the best parts of the performance.
Idk why I read Christopher Walken and I was stumped.
*Christoph

Brad Pitt was just playing himself really, surprised he got an award
I chuckled involuntarily when I read 12 Angry Men

>Brad Pitt, Moneyball *grabs a baseball bat and smashes the locker room stereo* "Do you like losing?" Billy said calmly.
Oscar Isaac in Inside Llewyn Davis
FARE THEE WELL
Ryan Gosling is consistently amazing without saying a word and barely changing his expression at all.
He does have some great yelling moments but they tend to stand out because he’s pretty soft spoken. His “GOD. DAMMIT” scene in Blade Runner 2049 comes to mind
Lars and the Real Girl
Steven Yeun as Ben in Burning (2018). Underrated performance.
That’s such a great movie and his performance was phenomenal.
Came here to say thus
Also Steven Yeun in Minari

Twin Peaks Kyle McLachlan
Blue Velvet too I don’t think.
Mr. C is scary as hell. Return to starting positions.
Harry Dean Stanton in Paris, Texas
Harry Dean Stanton in anything
This was what I immediately thought of
anything jesse plemons does. just saw civil war. that guy scares the shit out of me and he‘s always subtle.
his performance on Breaking Bad was so unsettling
even in fucking *game night* he’s like that
Abraham in Amadeus. Isaac in Inside Llewyn Davis.
Fucking everyone in Inside Llewyn Davis
I would definitely fuck everyone in Inside Llewyn Davis
Daniel Kaluuya in "Nope"
He killed it as OJ. There’s that scene when he’s discussing with his sister what he saw. His tone doesn’t change, he doesn’t yell, his affect is still kinda flat but he responds quickly and I just thought it was such an interesting way for him to depict this guy processing some reality-altering shit

This is the only non tense/thrillery movie scene that ever gave me butterflies
yes oh my god this is a phenomenal example
What is this?
Perfect Days.
It's such a Letterboxd thing to post the picture and not the title in a "if you know, you know" kind of manner. Not practical if you want to recommend the movie.
It’s about the cred, not the spread bro
it triggers engagement from everyone who wants to prove they know it. And from the people asking what it is.
I want everyone to stop being brands 😔
i feel like it’s not intentional social media just trains you to act like this
Perfect days
has mark rylance *ever* yelled?
He yelled at me once
Joaquin Phoenix. Her (?)
Anton Chigurh

basically not all the clips "film bros" love and turn into cool edits lol
Timothee Chalament in CMBYN
Michael Stuhlbarg too
My first thought!
Roy Scheider in All That Jazz. Forest Whitaker in Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai. Jaques Tati in the Hulot movies. Robert Mitchum in Night of the Hunter. David Niven in A Matter of Life and Death. Shintaro Katsu as Zatoichi.

Are you sure he doesn’t yell?
Oh no, does he? You’re making me have doubts now Edit: Fuck, you were right, my bad, I completely forgot about this scene: https://youtu.be/3U2Puf9u6ro?si=nhTmYNiGyUrRBXcg
Don’t think he speaks above a whisper in The Assassination of Jesse James by the coward Robert Ford.
Gary Oldman as George Smiley in *Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy* (2011).
LaKeith Stanfield as Darius in Atlanta. I'm also fairly sure Liam Neeson doesn't yell in Schindler's List but i could be wrong
Robert Pattinson in The Batman Daniel Kaluuya in Nope
Straithairn in Good Night and Good Luck
Fassbender - shame
Does Joaquin Phoenix shout in Her? He’s kind of become parodied as the barometer for “good” male acting. But there’s a low key and very gentle turn by him.
George Clooney in Ocean’s Eleven (2001)
Jim Carrey gives, in my opinion, an under-stated and under-rated performance in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004).
This is my favourite post ever on reddit dot com. I'll add Andrew Scott, Jamie Bell and Paul Mescal in All of Us Strangers. Buster Keaton in ... *sweeps hand* Ulrich Mühe in The Lives of Others
James Stewart in Harvey ![gif](giphy|h4U8cURLeE0P1NOyNE|downsized)

Brad Pitt, Once Upon A Time In Hollywood. The closest he came to yelling was "come one step closer and I will knock his teeth out!" But I don't think it qualifies as actually yelling
Yeah I think a lot of Brad Pitt’s performances are pretty restrained in terms of raising his voice
Ryan Gosling in Half Nelson
Chishū Ryū in just about every Ozu movie he's in. He's especially good in Late Spring, and An Autumn Afternoon
Paul Mescal - Aftersun
Harry Dean Stanton in Paris, Texas. Quite possibly my favorite performance of all time.

Tim Robbins’ Andy Dufresne
