Re: Carmine Giovinazzo Discussion: The Non-Locker Room Threa
I wholeheartedly agree. I ran out an bought this movie when I first realized that my obsession wasn't going away and was not disappointed. Gundy was an absolute scene-stealer, and the fact that Carmine pulled of being a stoner so effectively sealed the deal. This is absolutely one of my favorite movies and his performance in it was stellar.
A close second would have to be The Big Brass Ring. The movie itself left a lot to be desired, but again we see a very nuanced performance from Carmine. Our discussions over in LR about the opening scenes aside, he looked as if he really were enjoying some action from both the woman and the man. The remainder of his performance as a man on a steep downward spiral of becoming irretrievably damaged was pitch-perfect. And the man does know how to cry.
I have a couple of his movies still left to watch, so I better hop to it!

To answer the question, I'm going to have to go with BHSK. I don't know if it's my absolute favorite, because some CSI stuff sticks out, but I can't quote anything CSI like I can his lines as Gundy. What isn't to like there? He starts out baring his ass to world, because he just doesn't care...probably because he's stoned. :lol: His lines are witty and perfectly executed.
