he also was playing himself.  LOL.  It's not like he had to get into character.

 

Captain Willard

Casting someone who was on a weird fucked up journey, to make a film about going on a weird fucked up journey was pretty good casting if you ask me.  

Speaking of Airplane, the casting of Nielsen, Graves, Stack and Bridges was brilliant. 

Robert Duvall in pretty much everything.  Great Santini, Godfather I & II, Apocalypse Now, Lonesome Dove, Tender Mercies, The Apostle, and for a change of pace, Colors with the no-talent Sean Penn.

Marlin Brando - Vito Corleone, Terry Malloy

Julie Andrews - Mary Poppins, Maria Von Trapp

Gregory Peck - Atticus Finch

Peter O'Toole - T.E. Lawrence

Billy Wilder had a good eye.

Office Space cast.  Love this movie.  Aniston and Livingston were name brands, but the rest of the cast was mostly unknown.  Not sure the movie would be as good with any others cast in the roles.

Christopher Walken - Frank White

Reservoir Dogs entire cast

Sort of on Daniel Craig but Sean Connery did it better, but of course.

And Gary Oldham as Norman Stansfield was perfection.   And so was Jean Reno as Leon.
