Recently, I was trying to think of how many films I have seen this guy in and I could only think of 3. The Usual Suspects, Traffic and.......I forget the last one. However, after reading what it says about him, I have found out that he was in a James Bond film. License to Kill with Timothy Dalton (the retard).

Oh, Snatch. That was the third film I thought of.

In all these 3 films though, I have never heard him talk in his normal voice. You hear him talk in his normal voice in an interview on the Snatch DVD but that is the only time I have ever heard him talk like this.

Anyway, he is a great actor. I can't remember whether he one an oscar or not for his role as Javier Rodriguez in Traffic. I know he was nominated but did he get the oscar or not? I seem to remember something about Michael Cane but I can't remember whether it was this year or last year.

(I think I'll do a series of these topics about good actors who aren't REALLY well known, hence the 1 in the topic title)

Javier Rodriquez Rodriquez.....

Traffic is brilliant, got it the other day.

I suppose you could do one of these about someone like Arnold Schwarzneger, becasue no ones heard of him! :-)

In fact, that's a really good idea. I may have to do that. Or maybe Robert De Niro or Al Pacino. Or even Xander Berkely or Luis Guzman.

Del Toro is the best thing in Traffic by a long long way. He's a great actor and was also in The way of the Gun.. it's something like that, wasn't too well received by critics but as I've not seen it I don't know how he measured up.

Apparently he actually had a script in the usual suspects but decided it would be cool to give Fenster a completely unintelligible voice. Damn good decision, he's a classic character.

Fenster:Knock, knock, can you hear at the back? I say I'll flip yo
Cop:what?!
Fenster:Flip ya for real

Del Toro is a legend in my eyes.
