Where to start with Daniel Day Lewis? The guy is like the Dr. Dre of acting. He only comes out with a movie when he sees fit, and when he does, you can be sure that it will be an incredible movie. Lewis is at a point in his career where he only chooses the perfect roles for him and has no problem taking some time off in between.
This article will cite some of my favorite films starring the great Daniel Day Lewis.
One movie certainly worth mentioning is The Age Of Innocence. This is a romantic film that was released in 1993 and circulates around a story of betrayal, infidelity, lust and love.
Who can make a list of Daniel Day Lewis films and not mention The Last Of The Mohicans? In this French and Indian War classic, Lewis plays Hawkeye, a Native American looking to defend the remaining members of his tribe.
Another great film starring Lewis is Gangs Of New York. This movie shows New York City in the days when various gangs ran the streets and it was far from the place it is today.
When all is said and done, it was Lewis’ most recent Oscar win that was his most impressive: the role of the tyrannical oilman Daniel Plainview. If this movie was a work of fiction, Lewis would have you convinced otherwise. This movie played like a biopic.
The Boxer is another movie that is worth mentioning, as it is one of the few awesome Daniel Day Lewis sports roles. This movie came out in 1997 to limited release, but deserves to be seen by more widespread audiences.
As it stands, this is my list. I have no doubts however that any future Daniel Day Lewis films will be incredible as well.
