Steve Buscemi is a true living legend like Jeff Goldblum and we should cherish every waking moment he's still around...

With that being said, Buscemi could never handle being Christ in the Last Temptation of Christ, whereas Defoe owned that role so perfectly, I think he's the only actor besides 50's era Brando that could have pulled it off

I like Buscemi, but Dafoe is one of my very favourite actors I can't vote against

Dafoe has many memorable characters but my fav, and the one that stuck with me the most, was Bobby Peru

I HATED dafoe in platoon. Which lead me to having a negative impression of dafoe for years. But after storing back he is a great actor and has some great roles. Takes a great actor to make you believe and hate them I think.

Buscemi is a great actor as well.

Why

Buscemi. He was the cretin in all the cool Indy films when I was in high school. Defoe isn't a bad actor though. Fucking hated him in that gnostic drivel that Scorsese put out but he is absolutely phenomenal in The Life Aquatic. Underrated role for him imo.

Love Buchemi but Dafoe.

"THERE WAS A FIREFIGHT!!!"

 

[GoodBadHBK]

Fucking hated him in that gnostic drivel that Scorsese put out

I refuse to watch it

 

[Zer]

Why

He put his whole squad in danger by exposing them to pots

Good man. Not sure yr reasons but you ain't missing much imo.

Good man. Not sure yr reasons but you ain't missing much imo.

Isn't the whole premise what if Christ gave in to sin/temptation? Just not something I care to see or entertain.

 

[Streeter]

Equally iconic

Dafoe a better actor by a wide margin IMO though

This is my reaction as a teenager, I was all in for Sgt. Barnes. No duality of man BS, a walking talking war machine.

Dafoe wins via MOUTH.

I was Team Barnes as well tbh. He was a piece of shit but exactly the kind of soldier you needed in that war

Yeah Satan offers him a normal life of marriage and kids when he's on the cross and he struggles with it and shows a whole sequence of him with wife and kids. The whole twist is Scorsese gets ya with a gnostic heresy at the climax of the film.

I have to go with Dafoe. I like Buscemi but there’s just something about him that makes him really hard to take seriously. He stuck out like a sore thumb on season 5 of the Sopranos.

Buscemi via mr pink and real life badassness

 

[Kingz]

Buscemi has been in the better movies and he’s awesome..

but Dafoe is the better character actor.

Lets just say I could see Dafoe doing well in a lot of Buscemi’s greatest roles while I couldn’t picture Buscemi being able to pull off a lot of Dafoe’s work.

Maybe ‘Ghost World’ is the only Buscemi role that seems like it was completely made for him.
