Throughout their careers, Morgan Freeman and Tom Hanks have become synonymous to play good characters with the good heart that the public loves. In other words, Freeman is the wise voice of Heft, while Hanks is the reliable supreme of everyone.
That said, the two men tried to cross the dark side of their career, and although it could shock you, Freeman is the one who danced with the devil much more regularly. Certainly, despite playing bad guys in more than ten films, including one but two The contract killers, few of them were good films, so they did not feel much about their career when they are weighed alongside classics like Shawshank redemption,, Se7enor the Black knight trilogy.
In truth, Freeman’s best wicked turn came to one of his foremost revolutionary roles on the big screen: 1987 Street Smartin which he played a ruthless pimp. It is the kind of operating character and not recommendable that he has never played again, although his aged killer Betty nurse and the ruthless leader of a former cabal assassins that shake bullets Research were very good efforts to kiss its dark side again.
Unfortunately, one of Freeman’s worst attempts to show the public that he could be a despicable dog son came in 2003 Drive-upA really Batshit Stephen King adaptation. He included three long extraterrestrials long who broke up men on the toilet, but managed to ensure that Freeman’s strangest eyebrows were the strangest eyebrows of his surprisingly poorly oriented execution time of 134 minutes.
On his credit, he found something to like to play Colonel Abraham Curtis, and he seemed to love, or, at least, successfully lied on L’Aime, the film. “He became very messianic about a mission he was responsible for,” said Freeman MOMEWEB About Curtis. “This is one of these great films of huge effects, and yet the characters are still very fun. It is good. It is a good cinema because you do not depend on the effects to” do “the film.” Hey, whatever you say, Morgan.
Fascinating, however, despite his claims he loved with Drive-upThe actor admitted that he was still as jealous of a role his old Fire of joy of vanities The co-star Hanks only played a year earlier. In 2002, Hanks had never played a bad guy, so moviegoers were surprised when he was interpreted as Le Gigogne Michael Sullivan in the gangster film of the depression of Sam Mendes, Road to perdition. Since this film, Hanks has added another couple of bad guys to his arsenal (namely Lady lists And Elvis), but Sullivan was his first attempt to prove that he had cinematographic darkness in him.
In the end, the character turned out to be more an anti-hero than a pure and simple villain, but the shocking image of Hanks shot people in cold blood was sufficient to shake most audiences. Of course, it helped this Road to perdition It was an excellent film that boasted of the last live screen performance by Paul Newman, but Hanks held on his own, convincingly deleting everything that the public generally associated with him to create a hollow and haunted character.
For Freeman, Hanks’ performance as Sullivan who made firearms was a revelation, and he would have loved a crack himself. “He was just brilliant,” springs the impressed star, “any of us would have jumped on it. Anyone.” Then, with a head sign, he added: “When a script like this one arrives, there is no doubt that you want to do it”.
