I can't watch his movies anymore...


Without thinking about Frank Gallagher. Fargo is one of my favorite movies ever, but having gotten into shameless a few months ago, I can't picture him in Fargo anymore and it makes me want to watch it again. He's great in magnolia and boogie nights too. Just watched pleasantville on hbo, haven't seen it forever but it was a lot better than I remember, but anyway that's why I'm posting lol

I hear you man. He will forever be known as Frank Gallagher in my book.
Just like James Galdolfini playing Tony Soprano or Michael c. Hall as Dexter.
As good of actors as they are, they were simply TOO good in their signature roles to ever convincingly play off a different role or character.
