Tough choice.
His big break came in the first Nightmare on Elm Street movie ... What's Eating Gilbert Grape is really quite classic ...
The best though (in my opinion) is Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. An incredible movie based on an incredible-er (shut up) book.
Thoughts?
This one also featured Crispin Glover pulling out some of the raddest dance moves of all time. One of the best Friday the 13th movies.
Seriously, Stand By Me is the best movie he's ever been in, one of my top 5 movies of all time. Based on a Stephen King "short" featured in the same collection...
I forgot about her Slap'n'Ticklee, but you are absolutely right, she's great.
I looked for a video on youtube (couldn't find it), but on the Concert for George Harrison DVD she sings Horse to the Water (written by Harrison and Jools Holland) with Holland on the Piano and Jim Capaldi (Traffic)...
It's a strange thing about music. I love women, but I don't really like their music at all. There are always exceptions though ...
Chrissie Hynde (The Pretenders) is pretty rad (it doesn't hurt that the band rocks also)
Bonnie Raitt
Lucinda Williams
Rachel Yamagata
