The fact that everyone in this comment section is recognizing him for so many different roles is a testament to how great and how versatile of an actor Vincent is
I've only seen him in several works. He's a decent actor, certainly - but he's not one of the best out there, as people in the comments are stating. Not sure why people are giving him that much praise
The acting of Vincent D’Onofrio was brilliant in Full Metal Jacket. When you see his face in that scene he is about to kill, you really believe his character turned into a psycho
he is so good that i started thinking that Vincent himself was a psycho lmao like when i first saw it i thought wow this actor must be insane in real life too lol, he is that great.
One of my favorite movies, top 5, and Vincent D’Onofrio is amazing in everything but full metal jacket. It's the only role I think he was poorly cast in though. Which is weird since Kubrick in my opinion almost always cast his actors perfectly. I always thought Vincent overacted. I suspect it's due to bad direction. Kubrick could never see anything but what he wanted to see.
@@silewis9396 I didn’t know him well, he was doing a movie in the Philippines in the late 90’s, and I was a Marine at the US Embassy. Ermey called me after getting my number from a mutual friend. He called me and asked if I and my fellow Marines wanted to go have a beer. So we conducted Marine, young and new get together. He gave the Marines signed photographs at the end of the night. That’s about all I have to say.
@@wayupnorth9420 Thats pretty cool, he seems like an interesting guy. Are you sure it wasn't the late 70's? There's a movie called The Boys in Company C filmed there which came out in 78
@@Nain1982 I dont think so and that was th ereason of my post-Hes every bit as good as Dinero (better IMO) and closer to Anthony Hopkins-He is MUST WATCH
For me it's Daniel Day Lewis and John Hurt. But D'Onofrio is right there with them. He is a fabulous actor and complete scene stealer. While the movie was pretty good, his role in The Magnificent Seven was remarkable. He is an extremely versatile actor.
Vincent D'Onofrio has always been one of my favorite actors ever since I saw Full Metal Jacket. He always puts 200% into every part, and he is always able to become the character to the point you forget who he is.
I was a bar-back at the Hard Rock Cafe when Vince was a bouncer back then. It was a joy for all of us that he had got "discovered" by Kubrick and delivered from the purgatory of head-shots and cattle-calls.
"I'm Spartacus!" Damn! That's one of the best Kubrick stories ever! How the hell can Stanley come back to that? And, just from a gamesmanship point of view, you know Stanley had to admire the move.
Also funny thing is, Stanley hated that whole “I’m Spartacus” scene and thought it was cheesy, but Kirk Douglas and other producers had full control over that movie and did not allow Stanley to cut it.
I came to the comments hoping someone would have pointed that out. It's the best possible response anyone could have made, life set them up with the perfect joke and they paid it off brilliantly.
@@thomasgriffin2326 Stanley Kubrick directed another really famous film that would have been out a long time by the time they were making "Full Metal Jacket" called "Spartacus." At the end of Spartacus, a lot of people who aren't Spartacus stand up and claim to be him in this epic move of solidarity to protect their fellow slave? Gladiator? I honestly haven't seen the movie I just know the reference. So basically Kubrick was accidentally recreating a scene from one of his most famous movies and a clever British extra rose to the occasion and yelled Stanley's own movie quote back at him, prompting everyone else to do the same in a perfect replica of the actual scene from the movie Spartacus. Hope that helps.

This man is “bank,” in every character he’s ever acted in. My personal favorite was his serial-killer part in THE CELL. The dream sequences were phenomenal.
Fantastic as Pyle! This guy is a real actor, playing all kinds of different roles well, unlike a lot of Hollywood's A-list who are the same character in all their movies.
No matter what I see him in I think of Pile. That character he played was incredible. The opening scene with Lee and the cast of FMJ is one of the best opening scenes ever!
One of my favorite scenes of all time is in Full Metal Jacket and is one of the most chilling and believable. Then, when he blew his brains out I felt gut-punched. Wow! He is underrated. He is a fantastic actor.
The first time I had seen the movie, I really thought that was the ending. Then when the scene kicked in with Nancy Sinatra singing, it hit me that the movie had only been playing about 40 minutes or so when the bathroom shooting had occurred. It was that intense and had me spellbound watching it unfold.
How can you not like this guy, excellent actor, great story teller and seems like such a awesome guy. I've never seen him not give 100% in every role he has ever done. Still don't think he gets enough recognition....
Yes! I fell in LOVE with him in that movie! Couldn’t believe this was the same guy when I saw him in Full Metal. And loved his sweet character in Mystic Pizza
There are actors who just seem to be a step up from the others-its not just the talent-their personality and the ability to transform themselves into an almost unrecognizable person different from each and every other part they may have played in the past is a very exclusive club- this man is a card carrying member of this group of artists-his chemistry with Forest Whiticker is absolutely amazing
Dudes one of my all time favorites also. I love his whole career really, but he was the perfect person to play pyle. He made the misery so universally relatable its nuts. Ill never forget that scene as long as I live.
One of my favorite actors, so under rated.Also I know he would be so good as lead in a comedy. If they ever decided to remake the flim "Welcome Mr. Chance" ,they should consider him for the lead.
This man is a savage. From the bad guy in the Cell, to his role as Goren, men in black, full metal..sheeeit, must be cool to be this good at anything...
D’Onofrio is amazing in everything he’s ever done! I’m so glad he got that TV work later in his career. This guy really deserved some big paychecks and he never got them in cinema.
@@daveyboy_ both actors were amazing. Stories are just so far fetched I couldn’t watch. The Powell and Malcolm sidelines just diluted the rest of the show so bad then add in the girl and teenage gangster and musician were just stupid. Shame coulda been black Sopranos.
One of the most iconic scenes in movie history ..the stare gives me goosebumps every time ..it works because of the extreme arc of his character ..if he was a monster from the start it would not have same impact
His was the best and most believable part in the entire movie. He brought realism to the movie. I wanted to go back and find out who he was, because I wanted to follow his career. He was awesome.
I'm still shocked as many times I seen the movie I didn't know he played Edgar Bug in the first men in black movie. But for me full metal jacket is my favorite Vincent D'onofrio movie the only complaint I have about it was he and the late, great, R. Lee Ermy wasn't in the whole movie because in my opinion they complimented each other well and they were comedic gold. R.I.P R. Lee Ermy
D'Onofrio's Goren is good, but my personal favorite TV detective is Frank Pembleton from Homicide, played by Andre Braugher. And, in an interesting bit of trivia, Pembleton helped find D'Onofrio's killer in an episode of Homicide where he plays a guy who gets pushed of a subway platform.
"How does one gain that much weight for a role?" "Hash." If anyone else said that, I wouldn't believe them. Vincent D'Onofrio saying it? Legit AF. LOL XD
Vincent D’Onofrio...what a find. Guy is absolutely great. Front Full Metal Jacket to MIB to The Cell to The Magnificent Seven and everything in between...such great parts.
I wonder why......? Tracey Ullman was also amazing in Household Saints along with the entire cast, who were all along with the crew, a sincere pleasure to work with in 92'

Great interview video...Vincent is an awesome actor.I just wonder how many takes they actually had to do in Full Metal Jacket because of all the comments Ermey was able to come up with in all the boot camp scenes because if I remember correctly, a lot of the dialogue Ermey used was improvised right off the hip.
@@jeanclaudevantom692 Well, Adventures in Babysitting was released after Full Metal Jacket, but maybe shot before. I don't know. That might be a good question to ask in an interview.
Sorry, but Pvt Pyle came before Thor. Full Metal Jacket principal photography was from August 1985 to August 1986. Adventures in Babysitting started filming in January 1987.
Saw him in Manhattan many years ago. Had no idea he was that big. 6’3 easy. But incredibly nice. For the roles he’s mastered he should be celebrated a lot more than he is.

D’Onofrio is amazing. Great actor and he seems like a real likable fella.
I'd definitely hang out with him and a nice big bowl of hash...uh, corned beef, that is 😉!
Glad Orson Welles is still with us
“Mwaaaaaugh the french…champagne.”
We could do worse. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
@@louis3141 I’m dead!
Such a performance in that role!
He was Thor in Adventures in Babysitting! That blew my mind!
That right. I reminded many people who saw that movie
There’s only 45 dollars here. You owe me 50.
Great interview video...Vincent is an awesome actor.I just wonder how many takes they actually had to do in Full Metal Jacket because of all the comments Ermey was able to come up with in all the boot camp scenes because if I remember correctly, a lot of the dialogue Ermey used was improvised right off the hip.
Because from '61 to '72, he was actually IN the Marines.
He was Pvt Pyle AFTER he was "Thor", in Adventures in Babysitting. Think about that.
😂😂😂 I didn’t watch that for the first time until recently. It was crazy seeing how hot he was in Thor after seeing him as Pvt Pyle for years
Thor was after ??? No way 😳
@@jeanclaudevantom692 Well, Adventures in Babysitting was released after Full Metal Jacket, but maybe shot before. I don't know. That might be a good question to ask in an interview.
Sorry, but Pvt Pyle came before Thor. Full Metal Jacket principal photography was from August 1985 to August 1986. Adventures in Babysitting started filming in January 1987.
Saw him in Manhattan many years ago. Had no idea he was that big. 6’3 easy. But incredibly nice. For the roles he’s mastered he should be celebrated a lot more than he is.
Absolutely amazing role , so well performed
Incredible Actor one of my favs every role he's done is amazing.
Still an amazing and chilling scene...
