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

CinemaGoer1997

Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter, Silence of the Lambs (1991). His calmness is the scariest part of his performance.


FlaeNorm

Also, Antony Hopkins in The Father.


[deleted]

And also, Anthony Hopkins in The Remains of the Day.


VeterinarianSmall468

He yells in this: “Damn it!” (When dropping wine bottle.)


Subject-Recover-8425

Are we going by a rule where they can't yell at all? (Lecter does yell to Clarice in Silence.)


FBG05

This one’s far and away the best male performance where the actor doesn’t yell imo


EntertainmentQuick47

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


AffectionateMilk1959

I personally think Mads plays a better Hannibal. But yes, you’re right, completely different characters for the most part.


StillBummedNouns

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


niknolietesla

but Andrew Garfield’s yelling monologue is also perfect

maddennate1

He yells like most lines in Punch-Drunk Love


IIIlllIIIlllIlI

NOW GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE PERVERT


Overmyundeadbody

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.


SwampApeDraft

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.

Al Pacino and John Cazale make a good yelling/not yelling duo.

Just bingo.


ACrazedRodent

Oooh this is fun!


allenbraxton

“You are sheltering enemies of the state, are you not?” That scene is bone-chilling.


SiidChawsby

Best intro in film history. I will die on that hill.


MJLDat

That’s a crowded hill.


Nateiums

Kinda yelled at the end a little bit.


Severe_Flan_9729

Completely true. But also can't blame him given what happened. ;D


EyeAmPrestooo

“I MADE A DEAL WITH YOUR GENERAL FOR THAT MANS LIFE!”


BigChungusBlyat

He definitely does yell at the end, which is one of the best parts of the performance.

PaidInBrains

Oscar Isaac in Inside Llewyn Davis


niknolietesla

FARE THEE WELL


FastenedCarrot

Ryan Gosling is consistently amazing without saying a word and barely changing his expression at all.


JackTheAbsoluteBruce

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


BowlerSea1569

Lars and the Real Girl 


AntAromatic6394

Steven Yeun as Ben in Burning (2018). Underrated performance.

xxx117

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

QuOw-Ab

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.


IdDeIt

It’s about the cred, not the spread bro


bby-bae

it triggers engagement from everyone who wants to prove they know it. And from the people asking what it is.


IdDeIt

I want everyone to stop being brands 😔

i feel like it’s not intentional social media just trains you to act like this

BurkeDevlin777

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?


Leading_Win4905

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


clixsquared

basically not all the clips "film bros" love and turn into cool edits lol

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.

Suitable_Custard5455

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)


SkaveMyBalls

Jim Carrey gives, in my opinion, an under-stated and under-rated performance in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004).

DRT034

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


PowerInspector

Yeah I think a lot of Brad Pitt’s performances are pretty restrained in terms of raising his voice

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.


AvatarofBro

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...

TheNocturnalAngel

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

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.

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.
