I will have to watch Zinnemann's "The Men" after just yesterday seeing Zinnemann's "A Man For All Seasons" To name you list after a film you did not include implies a certain familiarity with the director. Are there more Zinnemann's you would (not) recommend?

Where's Chaplin??? I'd also add: Orson Welles in Citizen Kane, Takashi Shimura in Ikiru, Charles Aznavour in Shoot the Piano Player, Marcello Mastroianni in La Dolce Vita, Alain Delon in Le Samourai, Warren Beatty in McCabe & Mrs. Miller, and Jack Nicholson in The Passenger.

Hunger and There Will Be Blood are probably my top 2 films of the last 10 years and the performances like-wise. But wait - where's Jack Nicholso--ooohh there is...
