I wish Daniel Day Lewis had more movies that he has starred in. Lewis is arguably the most talented actor working today, and his multiple Academy Award wins and nominations further back this claim. Since the start of his career, he has been nominated for Best Actor in a Leading Role four times, and has won twice. Quite the feat indeed.
This article will cite some of my favorite films starring the great Daniel Day Lewis.
Academy Award
If you have never seen a Daniel Day Lewis, then a great place to start would be the film that won him the 1990 Academy Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role, My Left Foot. Lewis stars as the inspirational Christy Brown, an artist with cerebral palsy.
When it comes to epic films starring Daniel Day Lewis, it is hard to get a film better than The Last Of The Mohicans. There are few movies about the French and Indian War, and maybe that is because Michael Mann and crew set the bar so high with this 1992 war epic.
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.
In what is arguably the role of his career, Daniel Day Lewis stars as Daniel Plainview in There Will Be Blood. The incredibly talented Paul Thomas Anderson directed this amazing film which plays like a biopic because of Lewis' ability to steal every scene he is in.
One other film of Lewis' which I feel the need to mention is A Room With A View. This film was released in 1985, and while I normally do not like romance movies, this one was rather enjoyable.
Hopefully there is at least one film on this list of Daniel Day Lewis' that you have not seen before.
