@@catchbooker7257 Gangs of New York and Lincoln. Just commercial Oscar baity movies especially the latter. Former was a really mediocre movie so it didn't work out but it was obviously made for that reason. While I would agree that DDL was great in those regardless, Gary Oldman killed it in the Dark Knight movies as well be it commercial or art. His acting was superb and he nailed the role to the point that some critics thought that he should have been nominated at Oscars for The Dark Knight for supporting actor. So I don't know how Oldman doing The Dark Knight movies place him below DDL when they are some of the greatest trilogies if not the greatest trilogy to be ever made.
@@Izaan2810 I'll give you Lincoln, Oscar bait like the Iron Lady with Meryl Steep but we'll have to agree to disagree on Gangs Of New York. Very few 18 rated films are commercial success's.

80s Crim It's heartbreaking. That character he played married one of RFKs daughters. Had a daughter who committed suicide recently. Some people are just made to suffer.
Thank you, finally someone mentions his beautifull role of Gerry Conlon in ITNOTF!! The Medal scene, with the late GREAT Pete Postlethwaite, will rip you apart. Its that good, its on YT.
There is not a sliver of ego or pretension in DDL's acting. He's just a master of his craft, and the craft comes first in his films. Watching him act is like listening to John Coltrane play the saxophone. Pure bliss.
He’s the GOAT. He doesn’t act, he becomes. Humility, sincerity, and dedication are turned to 11 with Daniel. He’s a man amongst boys. God bless him for sharing with us 🙏🏼

Daniel Day Lewis is and has been my favorite actor since his role as Bill the Butcher. In my humble opinion, he's the best living actor, and perhaps of all time. A true artist.
Gangs was also my first time seeing him. His imposing presence in that, and There Will Be Blood, make me afraid of him even though I’ve seen his interviews where he’s as kind and thoughtful as it gets.
Completely agree. I still can't believe No Country won the Oscar. That year the Best Movie category was stacked. Atonement (did I remember that right?) & Juno & even the worst of the five nominees, Michael Clayton, were phenomenal. But yeah, There Will be Blood one of the all-time greats.

@@Garrus1995 I really tried to love it because Scorsese is always the consummate professional. Can't get away from a theatrical, corporate sheen over the whole project, though. DiCaprio and Diaz, talented and intuitive as they are, just hadn't yet attained the ability to be their roles. Hadn't put it into words before but overall, I'd say the tensions and pressures of the shoot appeared to take away from the tensions and pressures the story was trying to convey.
@@Garrus1995 I think a lot of people have the opinion that it is a good movie now. Clearly gets a lot of views as it is re-run quite a lot. It was quite a new format at the time though with very close camera shots. It doesn't stand out as much today because a lot of movies do the same thing. But at the time it felt a bit cheap like they were cutting corners by shooting so close without any panoramic views. Basically a cheaper way to shoot if the wider shots don't look good. What year did you first see the movie?
My favourite Daniel Day-Lewis role is Bill the Butcher. I’m not sure about the film as a whole, but he owns every minute he’s on screen! The squint of his eyes is genuinely menacing. The scene where he takes to the stage and plays to the crowd like a pantomime villain has a delicious circularity.
The first movie I saw him act in was 'My Left Foot', where he plays a real-life character named Christy Brown, who was disabled. It was phenomenal. People who actually knew Christy would have thought they were witnessing Christy coming back to life. I'm sure it would've been spooky watching it. I recall that it was a World boxing champion, Barry McGuigan, who trained Daniel for the boxing movie. I seem to recall Barry saying that Daniel could have been a professional boxer, he was that good. The real deal.
Daniel Day Lewis is a once in a generation or two kind of talent. And he is such a diminutive and humble soul that explodes on the camera with a force that can never be contained. There is a reason he is the best actor in the world.
@@ThePopbanks007 its just method, he becomes what his role is because he thinks it makes his acting more authentic. considering how well his career went i daresay it paid off
i once read a biography about him and the way i understood it was that he left acting because it was extremely stressful to become his characters. it just took so much out of him. there isn't a movie of his i don't like. one of my fav actors of all time.
You actually believe he's completely disabled in My Left Foot. A true story too. That was the 1st Day Lewis movie I saw and I still think it's the best acting I've ever seen from an actor. Just utterly stellar.
I was irish super heavyweight boxing champion at the time when Daniel trained at Crumlin boxing club, for the film: The Boxer. He had two couch's guiding him, Barry McGuigan and my own couch Phil Sutciff (the Chairman of Crumlin ABC). Incidentally it's the same boxing club McGregor trained in as a boy... Anyways Daniel trained twice a day and become very good on the pads and he loved skipping! He did spar often enough with the lighter lads, but only body shots. I remember him being extremly focused and it was obvious he absorbed everything like a sponge. However, (I'm smiling to myself now, thinking back) it was kind of off-putting the way he'd stare at us while we were hitting the heavy bag or zipping away on the speed ball! But he was always pleasant and engaging and most importantly without any of that megastar ego, bullshit. He said something along the lines about "boxing is a level playing field and it doesn't matter who you are, climbing through those ropes you've got to earn respect of your opponent the hard way!" It's no wonder he's so revered!
Remarkable Crumlin Dublin and thereabouts had and has successfull figures in fighting sports for a smallish ( perhapss tiny certainly by usa standards)area /population.Daniel Day Lewis should have movie/tv studios tailoring movies for him , I can gladly watch and enjoy semi mindless movies but like some engaging stuff from time to time like probably most folks
A lot of Lincoln's dialog in the movie came directly from the massive biography on Abraham Lincoln by John Nicolay and John Hay. Nicolay and Hay were long time private secretaries to Lincoln who had been with him for many years of Lincoln's career, even before his presidency. In the movie "Lincoln", Hay was played by Joseph Cross and Nicolay was played by Jeremy Strong. They do not have many speaking parts in the movie but in nearly every scene with Lincoln meeting with his cabinet they can be seen in the background, listening and observing. Yes, it is impossible to know precisely what Lincoln said word for word, but much of it was reconstructed based on that biography. And there were perhaps no two better people to write a bio on Lincoln than his longtime aides and secretaries John Hay and John Nicolay. In fact, just about every single biography ever written on Lincoln is pulling information from Nicolay and Hay's books.
@@RanThaMan so what, he doesn't live close to people now lol...come on! He's just a man. He has friends and neighbours and goes to the store to buy toilet paper when he needs to take a shit! Why do people act like you smh!?
DDL is a badass. He now lives somewhere in Wicklow Ireland and goes about life like a normal person. Best actor in the history of cinema who was never in a bad film and always gave tremendous performances.
Gangs of New York is such an underrated movie and DDL as Bill the Butcher was absolutely brilliant. Daniel is definitely on the Mt Rushmore of acting. I've never seen him be anything other than amazing in every role
Daniel Day-Lewis and Gary Oldman... man... two of the precious few people who fit into that Brando bracket. I don't think it's a stretch to say that he's the greatest living actor of the last 35 years! "There will be blood" has the greatest performance by an actor of any movie I've seen that was MADE in my lifetime.
DDL is the greatest Actor of all time.. Dozens of amazing Actors and a lot of them are the best in their own unique way. But DDL is just the best Actor hands down. I don't think a lot of people have seen his film "My Left Foot" his performance is just next level.
Daniel Day Lewis is definitely one of the best actors in recent history. Most of the really good ones seem to be British. Anthony Hopkins is probably my favorite, although he's getting pretty old. But I can't think of any actor currently working that is better. He can do such a wide variety of character types and that shows the true talent he possesses.
There will be blood is for me the greatest acting I’ve ever seen. It felt like you saw the obsessive greed and need for more that drives some people. Some people are so far ahead of other people already at the top of their professions it’s incredible. Daniel Day Lewis is one of them.
I think the film is great due to the fact that that was really going on in what today is China town in NYC. I remember walking down a road and there was an intersection and my friend was like "this is the historic five points" I went full nerd mode.
during the last of the mohicans he actually trained to be able to shoot from a long distance for real. In the movie "the crucible" he made his own shack and lived in it so he could be immersed in that world. he is just on another level.
@@stevewilson5402 Saying "i could sit through Schindler's List" is proof of a bad taste in films. Clearly you could have picked his crap films like Jurassic park or his big budget sell out films but you chose schindlers list . Dude ughk,, it sucks sharing a country with shallow morons
Devin Michael Roberts I have to agree. Schindler's List was Slow, overhyped, inaccurate and Liam Neeson is a fair actor but totally miscast. And he's certainly nowhere near DDL. Neeson is a slightly cheesy "movie star." DD Lewis is an actor and a creator of characters in his own mind.
@@marcuswilson3485 Oh what rubbish. Schindler’s List is a near perfect film and Neeson’s performance was fantastic, critically praised and Oscar nominated. I hate people saying it was slow. Not all films are action movies and it’s good to have slow pacing to build, scenarios,characters and atmosphere. You don’t have to rush the plot all the the time.
I just bought "The Boxer" on your suggestion. Daniel Day-Lewis is by far the best actor I've known. He digs the history to get at the guts of a character.
Daniel Day doesn't stay in character all the time during filming, he keeps the voice and mannerisms but mentally he switches in and out of the character like a professional actor. People who do method acting can take it too far being a jerk on set (Dustin Hoffman) but real method actors commit to the part without abusing/confusing people and holding up production. But seriously, get Daniel Day on the show. He'd probably be very amused by talking someone drastically different than him like Joe.
Amazing Daniel Day, Christian Bale, Tom Hardy, Al Pachino those guys who still use method acting are the most dedicated to the craft and in my opinion give the most amazing performances but Daniel Day cant be out matched
@@Blackhawk211 the most underrated movie that I really enjoyed that barley gets any recognition The Machinist and American Psycho both both roles he physically changed and gave some of the most haunting performances
I read that Daniel Day Lewis when playing the role of a paralysed man in My left foot, he method acted being paralysed throughout the production and that he had to be moved around in a wheelchair, lifted over things and even fed by the crew. Sounds like a pain if you ask me.
He did it once, forced people to carry him in a wheel chair. But there was a reason, he wanted to feel the shame of people hating to carry him around, and used that emotion on screen.
Daniel is a recluse and lives on a farm with his family, loving life shut off from the world... a lucky man and one of the greatest method actors to ever walk this planet, genuine, humble and a good soul.... wish there was an acting school which he spearheaded.... could you imagine the results?!!
DDL outshines everyone in almost all his films. I think one co-star that closes on matching his performance is Sally Field in Lincoln. But Sally is also a method actor. She was great in that movie. Another good one is Winona in the Crucible considering how young she was, her performance was really impressive.
I've always loved the performances in the boxer. Most people I know haven't seen it, but I still watch it about once a year even after seeing it dozens of times.
@@saintniccage2818 I can tell a joke when I see it, but I think it also carries the seed of a certain misconception about Lewis which I've seen repeated all over, which is that he's this braggart that uses his dedication specifically for external admiration, a snobbish badge of honor. He's been known to discuss his craft when asked, but never in the way that it's used by studios as a drawing point, and it tends to get blown to a proportion that the dude's not really comfortable with, as he's actually more of an introvert. So yeah, excuuuuuuuuuuuse me, princess.
The Boxing Coach who taught Daniel Day Lewis to box for the film the Boxer was also Conor McGregor's coach when he was a kid Philip Sutcliffe, I was a member of the same boxing club when I was a kid and Daniel trained hardcore for the roll we used to train with him.
When he played Lincoln nobody could talk to him about stuff after that time period. It had to be before Lincolns time. Which is how much effort he puts into his character
I don't know Joe, Deniro in Raging Bull was fucking spot on. He even fought as an amateur for a while cus he was that good! One of my favorite movies to this day

@@RanThaMan so what, he doesn't live close to people now lol...come on! He's just a man. He has friends and neighbours and goes to the store to buy toilet paper when he needs to take a shit!
Why do people act like you smh!?
@@AMan-xy3lx i don't think he is acting. I think this is really him
His P.T Anderson collaborations were just sublime pieces of film, just pure artistry in the acting, direction and cinematography.
The Last of the Moccasins ~ Daniel's handmade shoes 🤔
Clever
Took a sec. You got me.
That's amazing 👏 lol
Worth a thumbing
Talking about shoes!...My left foot. Is one of Daniels most amazing roles.
DDL in "There Will be Blood" is definitely the best acting I've ever seen.
People never give his role in "The Crucible" any love! His "It is my name!" scene is incredible.
Putting Daniel Day-Lewis a classic play, guaranteed dynamite
Agreed. Goosebumps.
He lives in ireland now. My favourite movie is in the name of the father.
He’s from Ireland.
mad mick he was born and bred in London but I think he lives in ireland
His best film is my left foot
@@scott6926
He is Irish.
stop it he will tell you that him self.
D S he’s English avnt you not heard him talk
Last of the Mohicans is one of my all time favourite movies and I still cry like a baby when I watch it,.
Mr. Lewis has been my favorite actor since the first time i saw his craft. The word "Actor", isn't enough.
DDL is a badass. He now lives somewhere in Wicklow Ireland and goes about life like a normal person. Best actor in the history of cinema who was never in a bad film and always gave tremendous performances.
Daniel Day- Lewis is one of the best actors ever.
Gangs of New York is such an underrated movie and DDL as Bill the Butcher was absolutely brilliant. Daniel is definitely on the Mt Rushmore of acting. I've never seen him be anything other than amazing in every role
DDL is the best actor living imo
Viggo mortensen ? Christopher Waltz ? So on ? :m
To each his own but in my opinion al pacino is the best living actor and ever for that matter.ddl is amazing tho
Jack Nicholson is the best in my opinion.
absolutely
He’s a method actor. He dives right in, he becomes the character. He’s truly mastered his craft. He’s absolutely incredible at his craft.
Guys he hasn’t retired, he’s just balls deep in research for his next film where he plays a cobbler.
Still waiting on The Cobbler to come out 🙁
Daniel Day-Lewis and Gary Oldman... man... two of the precious few people who fit into that Brando bracket.
I don't think it's a stretch to say that he's the greatest living actor of the last 35 years!
"There will be blood" has the greatest performance by an actor of any movie I've seen that was MADE in my lifetime.
DDL is the greatest Actor of all time.. Dozens of amazing Actors and a lot of them are the best in their own unique way. But DDL is just the best Actor hands down. I don't think a lot of people have seen his film "My Left Foot" his performance is just next level.
@@Lyons_T-BAGI couldn’t agree more. He’s by far the greatest actor of all time.
William Defoe is also up there
Gary Oldman is good but not in DDL’s league. He’s also a bit of c**t and is on his fifth marriage which says a lot about him!
One of my favourite films was “in the name of the Father”
Daniel Day Lewis is definitely one of the best actors in recent history. Most of the really good ones seem to be British. Anthony Hopkins is probably my favorite, although he's getting pretty old. But I can't think of any actor currently working that is better. He can do such a wide variety of character types and that shows the true talent he possesses.
also christian bale and gary oldman
Leo?
@@Blackhawk211 And Andrew Lincoln.
Joe “Jamie turn that up; Oh we have to turn it down because TH-cam?” Rogan
Dylan Wright 😂😂😂
There will be blood is for me the greatest acting I’ve ever seen.
It felt like you saw the obsessive greed and need for more that drives some people.
Some people are so far ahead of other people already at the top of their professions it’s incredible.
Daniel Day Lewis is one of them.
This is the first time in many months that this joke format has actually made me laugh 👍
lmao he does that every single time
Daniel Day Lewis is arguably the best film actor on the planet. He is a crazy good talent.
“I wonder if he makes shoes for people?” - Joe Rogan
I believe he works exclusively with ducks and llamas
He means that if DDL makes shoes not only for himself
Cool to have a pair of shoes made by one of the greatest actors of all time, maybe the greatest
It’s joe “I wonder if he makes shoes for people” rogan
@@AlejandroGomez-rp9vp the greatest actor of all time
@@sheikyerbouti83 I think he means deities.
I didn’t care much for Gangs of New York as a movie, but Day-Lewis as Bill the Butcher was so amazing to watch.
I've watched it about 30 times and I'd tend to agree with you. DDL is the reason I watch it, not because of the film itself.
I think the film is great due to the fact that that was really going on in what today is China town in NYC. I remember walking down a road and there was an intersection and my friend was like "this is the historic five points" I went full nerd mode.
Harvey Weinstein slighty "butchered" the film with his handsy approach. I really wish Scorsese could make his true cut.
during the last of the mohicans he actually trained to be able to shoot from a long distance for real. In the movie "the crucible" he made his own shack and lived in it so he could be immersed in that world. he is just on another level.
The only person to win an Oscar for best Actor in a leading role......THREE TIMES
My Left Foot
There Will be Blood
Lincoln
Nicholson ?
Billy Mcneill 3 times, but twice as best actor(cuckoo’s nest, and as good as it gets) the other one was for supporting actor(terms of endearment)
But I can name ten Spielberg movies in alphabetical order. Lol
You just got that little tid-bit of information off of another TH-cam video. His acceptance speech
Kwenz Landah except If you ask anyone who knows movies they’ll tell you he’s the greatest of all time so
Phantom Thread and There Will Be Blood are my favourite Paul Thomas Anderson films and Daniel Day-Lewis is in both of them
Took me years to realise Daniel Day-Lewis is British.... and I am British. That to me shows how amazing he is
“In the Name of the Father”. Superb Irish film, Daniel Day Lewis is brilliant.
The one reason DDL doesn’t do media or cultivate attention: he doesn’t need to. You can interpret this a million ways, they’re all correct.
Lincoln wasn't slow.. it was amazing. .I've watched it 10 times and it never gets old.
Even by Spielberg standards, it was slow. I could sit through Schindler's List. Munich was good. War Horse was okay.
@@stevewilson5402 Saying "i could sit through Schindler's List" is proof of a bad taste in films. Clearly you could have picked his crap films like Jurassic park or his big budget sell out films but you chose schindlers list . Dude ughk,, it sucks sharing a country with shallow morons
Devin Michael Roberts Jurassic Park is iconic
Devin Michael Roberts I have to agree. Schindler's List was Slow, overhyped, inaccurate and Liam Neeson is a fair actor but totally miscast. And he's certainly nowhere near DDL. Neeson is a slightly cheesy "movie star." DD Lewis is an actor and a creator of characters in his own mind.
@@marcuswilson3485 Oh what rubbish. Schindler’s List is a near perfect film and Neeson’s performance was fantastic, critically praised and Oscar nominated. I hate people saying it was slow. Not all films are action movies and it’s good to have slow pacing to build, scenarios,characters and atmosphere. You don’t have to rush the plot all the the time.
I just bought "The Boxer" on your suggestion. Daniel Day-Lewis is by far the best actor I've known. He digs the history to get at the guts of a character.
Daniel Day Lewis is one of the greatest actors of our time.
Daniel Day doesn't stay in character all the time during filming, he keeps the voice and mannerisms but mentally he switches in and out of the character like a professional actor. People who do method acting can take it too far being a jerk on set (Dustin Hoffman) but real method actors commit to the part without abusing/confusing people and holding up production.
But seriously, get Daniel Day on the show. He'd probably be very amused by talking someone drastically different than him like Joe.
Amazing Daniel Day, Christian Bale, Tom Hardy, Al Pachino those guys who still use method acting are the most dedicated to the craft and in my opinion give the most amazing performances but Daniel Day cant be out matched
@@horror_fam0847 Christian Bale is seriously underrated. People think Batman and not the prestige etc
@@Blackhawk211 the most underrated movie that I really enjoyed that barley gets any recognition The Machinist and American Psycho both both roles he physically changed and gave some of the most haunting performances
I read that Daniel Day Lewis when playing the role of a paralysed man in My left foot, he method acted being paralysed throughout the production and that he had to be moved around in a wheelchair, lifted over things and even fed by the crew. Sounds like a pain if you ask me.
He did it once, forced people to carry him in a wheel chair. But there was a reason, he wanted to feel the shame of people hating to carry him around, and used that emotion on screen.
It hurts my heart to know he has retired. I'm really hoping someone will show him a script good enough to have him grace our screens again.
Certainly one of the top actors of all time. Always major roles and always perfect. Never mails it in.
There will be blood, the benchmark in acting. His performance is out of this world, he is a real artist in every way.
The picture of Daniel day Lewis on a subway in NY using a flip phone from a year or 2 ago is the most Daniel day Lewis thing ever
Daniel is a recluse and lives on a farm with his family, loving life shut off from the world... a lucky man and one of the greatest method actors to ever walk this planet, genuine, humble and a good soul.... wish there was an acting school which he spearheaded.... could you imagine the results?!!
He's one of my favourite actors of all time, and in my opinion, he's the greatest actor of my time.
DDL outshines everyone in almost all his films. I think one co-star that closes on matching his performance is Sally Field in Lincoln. But Sally is also a method actor. She was great in that movie. Another good one is Winona in the Crucible considering how young she was, her performance was really impressive.
winona is super good in everything
Loved how Joe still refers to Mark Wahlberg as "Marky Mark"
Best actor of all time.
@Stefan Kovacevic so you not knowing who he is discredits his entire career huh
Easily the best of our time.
Keyboard Drunken Boxer mos def one of them
Stefan Kovacevic are you the type of drone whos favourite movie stars Dwayne Johnson or kevin heart????
Blatant homosexual
Lewis is the best actor I have ever seen in my 52 years.
Bill the butcher is one of my favorite characters of all-time. Daniel's acting is incredible!
Daniel Day Lewis doesn't make shoes, he makes Left Shoes. For his left foot.
On point..
Lol
Getting
Awesome program that was.
Weak , Christy had two feet .
Daniel Day Lewis is a straight-up chameleon.
That's what my pop always called him!
the first time i saw gangs of new york i didnt know its him
E F he should be the chameleon in spider-man
I've always loved the performances in the boxer. Most people I know haven't seen it, but I still watch it about once a year even after seeing it dozens of times.
Really great film.
Not only one of the best but every time he shows his class-act performance.
Daniel Day Lewis is a treasure just one of the greatest actors and artists ever
'The Age of Innocence' is his most underrated performance.
I would love it if joe got Daniel Day-Lewis on the podcast
Haha, the impression by Joe on a reporter of E-fuckery is just hilarious. That cracked me up. It's also so true!
You are missing maybe his best role...In The Name of The Father, you should see that...a master piece.
u pravu si Miljane!! 😎
Davor Fištrović hvala...drago mi je da se još neko seća tog fenomenalnog filma i ceni njegovu maestralnu ulogu.
His best performance 🎭
And his best performance was in "My Left Foot"
@@lll-qr4yu mmm...that's second on my list.
Daniel Day Lewis would easily be the best podcast of all time. I doubt he’d do it but man that’d be amazing.
Paul dano can keep up with him. Dudes going places. Amazing director too!
In the name of the Father is a criminaly underrated movie
Last of the mohicans..... he lived in the woods for months.
So do Deer but you don't hear them bragging
@@michaeljohnson6510 savage
He doesn't really brag about anything he does, but the Hollywood publicity machine uses it to entice moviegoers.
bloodnchocolate its ok sir....the joke missed your head by 15 feet
@@saintniccage2818 I can tell a joke when I see it, but I think it also carries the seed of a certain misconception about Lewis which I've seen repeated all over, which is that he's this braggart that uses his dedication specifically for external admiration, a snobbish badge of honor. He's been known to discuss his craft when asked, but never in the way that it's used by studios as a drawing point, and it tends to get blown to a proportion that the dude's not really comfortable with, as he's actually more of an introvert.
So yeah, excuuuuuuuuuuuse me, princess.
He forgot to mention, "My Left Foot"...and....
"In The Name Of The Father"..... moving great film based on truth...acted truly greatly!
The Boxing Coach who taught Daniel Day Lewis to box for the film the Boxer was also Conor McGregor's coach when he was a kid Philip Sutcliffe, I was a member of the same boxing club when I was a kid and Daniel trained hardcore for the roll we used to train with him.
When he played Lincoln nobody could talk to him about stuff after that time period. It had to be before Lincolns time. Which is how much effort he puts into his character
I don't know Joe, Deniro in Raging Bull was fucking spot on. He even fought as an amateur for a while cus he was that good! One of my favorite movies to this day
Remember the scene where he threw a knife at the picture of Lincoln. The irony of that
