When discussing prolific, yet modest actors, one person who definitely comes to mind is Tommy Lee Jones. Throughout the years, the man has been in so many movies, yet he certainly does not seem like he has a Hollywood ego. Tommy Lee Jones definitely appears to love acting and I love the movies he is in.
This article will discuss what I consider to be the top five films starring or featuring Tommy Lee Jones.
One movie that has to be on any logical list of Tommy Lee Jones' best films is The Fugitive. After all, this was a film that won Jones an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. It has been long enough since The Fugitive came out to call this film a classic.
Another great film starring Tommy Lee Jones was No Country For Old Men. This movie won the Academy Award for Best Picture, and with good reason. Jones plays the part of an aging cop in a small desert town to perfection. Joel and Ethan Coen directed this movie and it is one of my favorite films that these brothers have put out.
One film that featured Tommy Lee Jones that I loved was Batman Forever. When it comes to quality, this film does not come close to Christopher Nolan's most recent Batman films, Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. But that doesn't mean that this film isn't a fun watch. Tommy Lee Jones plays the role of Two Face.
To not include either Men In Black or Men In Black 2 on this list would just be plain crazy. I loved both these films and I cannot wait to see America's two favorite alien crime fighters reunited in Men In Black 3. I believe this film is slated to come out in late 2011.
Finally, I will include Olver Stone's JFK on this list. This film focuses on the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and how there was more to it than originally thought. Kevin Kostner stars in this movie as well.
Hopefully there are one or more films from Tommy Lee Jones' catalog that you have not yet seen. If you need a good place to get started, I highly recommend the above mentioned flims.
