Do you guys consider John Turturro to be a good actor?

I was just thinking about this the other day. I rarely see him mentioned when favorite actors are being talked about, so i was wondering do you people rate him as an actor, and if not, why?

Because he doesn't own "the face".

Yes, he's an excellent actor.

I had to look him up, I didn't know the name. As soon as I saw a picture though, I knew him. He's certainly been in enough movies. I think he's a very good actor, but I don't think he's well enough known to be considered a favorite by most people.

Bit of an arty ponce, but lets face it, Jesus in the Big Lebowski is one of the best characters ever.

I never heard of him so I had to look him up here. I recognize his picture, but out of the 59 movies listed, I've only seen two, and don't remember him being in either. So I guess I don't find him that remarkable.

You don't remeber him being in The Big Lebowski? Wow.

Summer of Sam and Desperately Seeking Susan are pretty understandable though.

That was John Leguizamo, if it's who you're thinking of.
