This week on I Know That Face, Andrew and Stephen take each other to task over their recent Letterboxd reviews, discussing everything from the new movies The Running Man and Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere, upcoming releases like Primate, to all five Twilight films. Stephen also argues that TV is officially back, thanks to The Chair Company and Pluribus. After this, we take on the career of Kerry Condon, Tipperary's most famous export. Oscar-nominated for her role in Martin McDonagh's The Banshees of Inisherin, she has been acting since the '90s, appearing in shows like Better Call Saul and Rome, as well as films like Unleashed, F1, In the Land of Saints and Sinners, and the just-released Train Dreams.

And now for something completely different... Well, not really. I Know That Face will continue to be your favourite character actor-focused podcast, but with a bit of a contemporary twist. For the first ten minutes of each show, we'll be discussing new trailers, new movies or just what we've been watching recently. This week, we're talking about the return of Daniel Day-Lewis in Anemone, the New French Extremity and some movies Stephen recently saw. In character actor territory, we're discussing one of Ireland's favourite sons, Aidan Gillen. From career beginnings in Some Mother's Son to some of his best TV work in Love/Hate and Game of Thrones, as well as his more recent work in Dublin detective drama Barber, we'll examine every smirking, sneering facet of Aidan Gillen's devilish smile.

For our final episode of the season, we're covering a Korean-American superstar. Starting out on The Walking Dead, Steven Yeun has gone from strength to strength on both sides of the Pacific. He's made indie action horrors like Joe Lynch's Mayhem, while also collaborating with South Korean auteurs like Bong Joon-ho on Okja and Mickey 17 and Lee Chang-dong on Burning. Yeun has transitioned easily between film and TV with roles in the Prime Video animated superhero show Invincible and on Netflix's series Beef. The actor was Oscar-nominated for his role in 2020's Minari and has consistently worked with interesting directors, such as Jordan Peele on Nope and Boots Riley on Sorry to Bother You.

An accomplished director in her own right, King has directed multiple TV episodes and the film One Night in Miami... In 2018, she won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar for her role in Barry Jenkins' If Beale Street Could Talk.

We're back with our first new episode of the year. Andrew and Stephen go down under to check out the career of Australian actor Guy Pearce.

Of the many moustaches we've covered, the best and most consistent belongs to Sam Elliott. With a career stretching across 50 years, the actor made his name in Westerns and often played men of action. He also diversified and played around with his image in the likes of The Big Lebowski and A Star is Born. Best known for Tombstone and 1883, Sam Elliott has been a reliable presence and you can hear us talk about why here.

Andrea Riseborough joins Jennifer Jason Leigh and Tilda Swinton to complete the Holy Trinity of actresses who can do anything.

The midnight hour is close at hand this week on I Know That Face as we take a deep dive into horror films starring Vincent Price. The Merchant of Menace is best known for a string of Edgar Allen Poe adaptations produced and directed by Roger Corman in the early ‘60s but his output extends from Universal Horror in the 1940s all the way to the early work of Tim Burton. Price starred in horror hits such as House of Wax, Witchfinder General and Theatre of Blood. Non-horror fans may know him best from the monologue in Michael Jackson's Thriller or as Professor Rattigan in The Great Mouse Detective.

I Know That Face returns! We're champions of the underappreciated here and few other actors feel as underappreciated as Djimon Hounsou. A commanding and authoritative presence, Hounsou has appeared in movies such as The Island, Never Back Down, The Legend of Tarzan, Guardians of the Galaxy and Shazam! However, his most soulful work is in films such as Blood Diamond, Gladiator and In America. If you're as excited for Gladiator 2 as we are, this episode is worth your time.

On our last episode before our annual summer break, we talk about the career of the legendary Ernest Borgnine. A naval officer through the war years, he turned to acting after his discharge and within a decade had won the 1956 Best Actor Oscar for Marty. The actor was relied on as an unconventional lead and a supporting player for many in such films as Bad Day at Black Rock, The Dirty Dozen, The Wild Bunch, The Poseidon Adventure and Hustle.

And we're back! I Know That Face is coming in hot in 2023 with the most classically handsome man we've covered: Glen Powell. A long time actor, Powell has risen from one line roles in The Dark Knight Rises to bulking up large ensembles in The Expendables 3 and from meatier supporting roles in Everybody Wants Some!! and Top Gun: Maverick to co-leading the rom-com Set It Up and the true war story Devotion. Powell is one of western cinema's brightest talents whose star is rapidly on the rise but still a long way from his peak. That makes him perfect for us.

This week's I Know That Face episode is a packed one, beginning with Andrew and Stephen looking at the career of a workhorse of an actor. Jun Kunimura hasn't taken a year off since 1991 and the effort shows in his work with Ridley Scott, Quentin Tarantino, John Woo, Takashi Miike, Takeshi Kitano and Na Hong-jin. Best known in the west as the beheaded Boss Tanaka in Kill Bill Vol. 1, the Japanese actor made his bones in lean and mean horrors and crime thrillers like Audition, Ichi the Killer, Outrage and Manhunt. Meanwhile, his most famous and well-rounded recent role as the mysterious Japanese stranger in the South Korean horror epic The Wailing won him the Best Supporting Actor and Popular Star awards at the Blue Dragon Awards, making him the first non-Korean to do so. Also in the episode, Stephen interviews director Sebastián Lelio about his new Irish-set mystery drama The Wonder starring Florence Pugh. It's out in Irish cinemas now before it will receive a Netflix release on 16 November.

Halloween is in full swing here on I Know That Face and this week, we are doing something a little different. Instead of talking about the career of a character actor, we're talking about an entire genre, well sub-genre, of horror movies. Beginning with The Blair Witch Project, Stephen and Andrew dive into found footage. Listen in for debates about more popular fare like Cloverfield and Paranormal Activity to unanimous agreement on Asian horrors like Noroi: The Curse, The Medium and Incantation.

The spooky season starts early on I Know That Face.

Along with also bookending the anthology Creepshow, Atkins has enjoyed a late-career boost with roles in horror films like My Bloody Valentine 3D and Trick.

I Know That Face returns! This week Andrew and Stephen discuss the King of weirdo character actors: Michael Wincott. Canadian by birth and an off-the-wall actor by choice, Wincott broke through in the likes of Oliver Stone's Talk Radio and 1991's Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. His raspy, sensuous voice and dark, devilish smile made him an easy pick for villains like Top Dollar in The Crow, Philo Gant in Strange Days and Gary Soneji in Along Came A Spider. Always selective in his roles, Wincott became more choosy as the years went by appearing to go on hiatus after 2017. In 2022, he reappeared after a 5-year break in Jordan Peele's sci-fi horror blockbuster Nope as cryptic, disaffected cinematographer Antlers Holst.

"I just want to tell you both good luck, we're all counting on you." I Know That Face returns with an episode critics are calling "outrageously hilarious" and "side-splittingly funny" focused on all-time comedy great Leslie Nielsen. Our episode on the so-called "Olivier of spoofs" examines the performer's path from clean-cut dramatic actor in Forbidden Planet to his transition to character actor in 1972's The Poseidon Adventure before finally covering the funnies. From Airplane! to The Naked Gun franchise all the way to the 2000s spoof-heavy comedy scene, Nielsen defines not only a certain kind of comedy but the genre itself.

Let's talk about Riley Keough! Let's talk about Fury Road! This week Stephen and Andrew freefall through the career of one of the 2010's best character actors: Riley Keough. Already familiar with fame as the granddaughter of Elvis Presley, Keough took the road less travelled when it came to her own career. Beginning with The Runaways in 2010, the actress spent the first half of the 2010s appearing in indie fare like Magic Mike and Dixieland, before hitting the big time in George Miller's oil and chrome odyssey Mad Max: Fury Road. From there, Keough stuck with independent cinema and became a frequent collaborator of Steven Soderbergh's in the TV series The Girlfriend Experience and crime-comedy Logan Lucky. In the last few years, Keough has pursued darker roles, especially in It Comes At Night, The House That Jack Built, The Lodge, The Devil All the Time and Zola.

This week on I Know That Face, Stephen and Andrew venture into uncharted territory as they discuss the only character actor in the MCU: Don Cheadle. Beginning with the 'Nam war film Hamburger Hill, Cheadle made his mark in Hollywood early and often. With films like Devil in a Blue Dress, Boogie Nights, Out of Sight, the Ocean's Trilogy and The Guard, the actor has stayed in the public eye for over 30 years. He was nominated for a Best Actor Oscar for Hotel Rwanda and in 2010 replaced Terrence Howard as War Machine in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In recent years, Cheadle has appeared in Steven Soderbergh's No Sudden Move and in Space Jam: A New Legacy.

And we're back! For our first episode of 2022, we're taking a look at the career of Hollywood's most reliable Frenchman Vincent Cassel. First rising to prominence in Mathieu Kassovitz's La Haine as macho French youth Vinz, the actor went on to establish himself as a leading heavyweight in France. Starring in films like L'Apartment, Dobermann and Brotherhood of the Wolf, Cassel was much sought after by the time his first English language role as Robin Hood in Shrek came around. From there, he made waves as the Night Fox in the latter two films of Steven Soderbergh's Ocean's Trilogy, as a closeted Russian gangster in David Cronenberg's Eastern Promises and as a seductive ballet director opposite Natalie Portman in Black Swan. Cassel has acted mostly in European cinema in the last decade with some highlights including Jason Bourne, The World is Yours and Underwater.

Is it that time of the year already? Before the I Know That Face crew takes a short break in the new year, we're sharing our annual discussion of the best films of the past 12 months with you. 2021, like its predecessor, was a strange year for movies. Superhero cinema came back in a big way and along with low-budget horror reasserted its claim to the box office throne. Many delayed films such as The Last Duel, The French Dispatch and Last Night in Soho finally came out and none of them ended up on our respective lists. Andrew sings the praises of nihilistic horror fare like David Prior's The Empty Man and Shudder's The Medium while also spotlighting Kristen Stewart's powerhouse performance in Pablo Larrain's Spencer. Both Andrew and Stephen loved Malignant and two similar but very different Mads Mikkelsen movies. Stephen also takes a rewarding dive into the surreal M. Night Shyamalan's Old and the Nicolas Cage vengeance vehicle Pig, before chatting at the end of the episode to Valdimar Jóhannsson, the co-writer and director of the Noomi Rapace starring Lamb.

For the final character actor episode of 2021, Stephen and Andrew look at the career of Swedish actress Noomi Rapace. Best known as Lisbeth Salander in the Swedish adaptation of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and its sequels, Rapace has made a career of playing determined yet vulnerable female characters. Though her first English language role was Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows, it was Ridley Scott's Prometheus that would define her Hollywood career. From there Rapace spent most of the 2010s making lean, mean thrillers like The Drop, Child 44, What Happened to Monday, Close and The Trip. Her next film Lamb releases later this year.

With the new millennium, John Malkovich only became more prolific and hence better known. His first role in the 2000s was as a psychotic version of the German Expressionist director F. W. Murnau opposite Willem Dafoe's Max Shreck in Shadow of the Vampire. Another iconic albeit fictional character followed with his take on Patricia Highsmith's Tom Ripley in Ripley's Game. In 2008, he was part of an ensemble of idiots in the Coen Brothers' Burn After Reading. In the same year, he collaborated with Clint Eastwood for a second time in Changeling. In the 2010s, Malkovich took a wide variety of supporting turns in films such as Warm Bodies, Deepwater Horizon, Mile 22 and Velvet Buzzsaw. He shows no signs of slowing down with roughly 10 projects due for release.

Another anniversary, another two-parter. This year, we’re covering John Malkovich. A man of many hairpieces, the legend has been acting in film since his Oscar-nominated debut Places in the Heart. He followed that on with Steven Spielberg’s Empire of the Sun and Stephen Frears’ Dangerous Liaisons. In the 90s, Malkovich continued working in high brow fare like The Sheltering Sky and The Portrait of a Lady, as well as in popcorn blockbusters such as In the Line of Fire and Con Air. He also notably played himself in fantasy-comedy Being John Malkovich.

Beginning her career in the genre with Stuart Gordon’s Re-Animator, Crampton played a variety of roles in 80s and 90s B pictures such as Castle Freak, Chopping Mall and From Beyond. A career break in the 2000s presaged a huge comeback in the last decade with the likes of You’re Next, We Are Still Here, Sacrifice and Jakob’s Wife.

For over 30 years, Tony Todd has been thrilling all kinds of audiences in a variety of roles and as part of our special October horror series, we're covering the career of the Candyman himself. Beginning in Oliver Stone's Platoon, the classically trained Todd soon landed two of the most iconic roles in horror cinema. In the 1990 remake of Night of the Living Dead, he played the role of Ben in a spin on George A. Romero's classic. Just two years later, he then appeared as the titular character in Bernard Rose's Candyman - a role he would reprise across all its sequels. Though perhaps best known in some quarters for his roles in several Star Trek TV shows, Todd also played mortician William Bludworth in the Final Destination series, Rev. Zombie in the Hatchet franchise and Augustus D. Cole in The X-Files episode Sleepless.

Lili Taylor has been a mainstay of American indie and mainstream cinema since 1988. This week we turn our focus to her performances in a wide variety of films. Much sought after for both her timeless appeal and ability to dig deep into very complex characters, Taylor has acted consistently in both TV and film for over 30 years. Starting off in rom-coms like Mystic Pizza, she quickly graduated to holding her own opposite River Phoenix in Dogfight, Faye Dunaway in Arizona Dream and leading Abel Ferrara's philosophical vampire film The Addiction. In the 2000s, she appeared in the Bukowski adaptation Factotum, Michael Mann's Public Enemies and in one of the foundational films of modern horror (and blockbuster) cinema The Conjuring. After our Taylor talk, stay tuned for the show's interview with Eoin O'Donnell, a young Irish journalist who attended the Venice Film Festival this month and got to see some of the most highly anticipated movies to premiere at the event.

It's a tale as old as cinema itself: the star beloved in their home country heads to Hollywood to make it in the big time only to find themself playing middling villain roles. So it went and is still going with Mads Mikkelsen's career. Seen as the face of a resurgent Danish cinema in his home country, he is mostly cast as the bad guy in western pictures. Joined by returning guest Sean Moriarty, this week Andrew and Stephen take the biggest plunge they've ever taken into a character actor's career. From humble beginnings in Nicolas Winding Refn's Pusher Trilogy and Valhalla Rising to international Infamy in Casino Royale and from American network TV with Hannibal to awards recognition with The Hunt and Another Round, Mads Mikkelsen's career is one of the most interesting we've covered.

The best (and only) character actor podcast in the world returns! For their first episode back Andrew and Stephen head north to talk the career of Michael Smiley. A Northern Irishman, Smiley got his start as the rave-obsessed bike courier Tyres O'Flaherty in Edgar Wright's sitcom Spaced. His first major supporting film role came in 2008's Outpost. From there he began a series of collaborations with Ben Wheatley including Down Terrace, Kill List, A Field in England and Free Fire. Well known for his musical accent, cutting line deliveries and glowering menace, Smiley has put all three to use in the thrillers Black Sea and Come to Daddy, the Irish folk horror The Hallow and the RTÉ TV comedy Dead Still.

There are few character actors out there that look capable of both long division and of delivering a vicious head-butt. This week's subject, James Badge Dale, is one of those character actors. Best known for playing a varied assortment of cops, sheriffs, state troopers, security specialists, soldiers and CIA contractors, Dale imbues all his characters with a physicality, intelligence and vulnerability rarely seen these days. Whether it's a military scientist in Spectral, a beleaguered police chief in Hold the Dark, an undercover cop turned militiaman in The Standoff at Sparrow Creek or a traumatised cipher in The Empty Man, Dale always delivers a remarkably layered performance no matter the project.

This week we're going from Scotland to Texas to Atlantic City as we take on the career of Kelly Macdonald. Starting off as the underage seductress Diane in Trainspotting, Macdonald channeled this success into securing strong roles in Robert Altman's Gosford Park and the 2003 Irish thriller Intermission. The mid-2000s saw her support in childrens' films like Nanny McPhee and Lassie and in more adult fare like the Coen Brothers mega-successful neo-Western No Country for Old Men. TV has been the best place to catch Macdonald's work in the last decade which saw her star in HBO's Boardwalk Empire, the BBC series Giri/Haji and the latest season of Line of Duty. Not only is she a face you know, she's one you never forget. Sign up to HeadStuff+ at headstuffpodcasts.com for the small price of €5 a month to unlock exclusive bonus episodes of I Know That Face.

It's golden-oldies week on I Know That Face. Take a step back in time to the Golden Age of Hollywood with Andrew and Stephen to revisit the career of Edward G. Robinson, see? Known for his tough-guy gangsters in films like Little Caesar and Key Largo, Robinson starred in 101 movies over the course of 50 years from gambling dramas like The Cincinnati Kid to sci-fi thrillers such as Soylent Green. Across hundreds of roles on stage and the big and small screens, Robinson is best-loved by Stephen and Andrew for his role as motor-mouth claims adjuster Barton Keyes in Billy Wilder's pitch-perfect noir Double Indemnity.

Hard to believe we've been doing this over a year and this is our first big disagreement. This week on I Know That Face Andrew and Stephen break down the career of Christopher Abbott from his Broadway beginnings to his consistent indie output. Stephen's a big fan. Andrew is not. Whether it's dramas like James White and Tyrel or thrillers such as It Comes At Night and Sweet Virginia or horrors like Piercing and Possessor, Stephen has been consistently impressed by Abbott. Andrew has not. So, in the words of former I Know That Face subject Ken Watanabe: "Let them fight!"

Joined by returning guest Mia Sherry, the I Know That Face crew dive deep into the career of Meth Damon himself, Jesse Plemons! Beginning his career as a child actor Plemons came to attention as Landry in Friday Night Lights. He quickly followed that show's end in 2011 with a heel turn into one of Breaking Bad's most venomous villains, Todd Alquist. It's been quite a decade for Plemons with roles in Paul Thomas Anderson's The Master, Martin Scorsese's The Irishman, and Charlie Kaufman's I'm Thinking of Ending Things. His best-supporting work has come in the likes of Hostiles, Black Mass, Game Night, and Vice. Though his only lead role was in 2016's Other People he will re-team with Scorsese to play the main character in his epic western Killers of the Flower Moon which began shooting just a few days ago.

Already scared of the dark due to a traumatic event in her past, she soon realises an angry spirit is haunting the hospital.

This week Stephen and Andrew are joined by screenwriter, producer and filmmaker Niall Cassin to talk about the evergreen career of Bruce Greenwood. Capable of switching from cool authority figures like JFK in Thirteen Days to monstrous husbands in Double Jeopardy and Gerald's Game to sensitive working class men such as Billy Ansel in The Sweet Hereafter, Greenwood has carved out a path for himself as a reliable jack-of-all-trades in both film and TV. What's more our guest Niall Cassin has worked with him on a TV pilot and as well as being an incredibly versatile actor, Greenwood has a presence off-camera as calming as his most authoritative roles and a knack for guitar playing too. With three films he's written coming to streaming later this year, a super secret American TV show coming this autumn and a horror film he scripted and produced shooting soon it might not be long before Niall - who has production credits on Deadpool, Tully and The Last Duel - finds himself working with Greenwood again.

This week we're travelling from feudal Japan to the surface of the sun with the career of Hiroyuki Sanada. Sanada began acting at the age of six, rapidly fulfilling his childhood dream as an action star. After a slew of samurai films in the 1970s he went west to Hong Kong to star in martial arts films like Ninja in the Dragon's Den and In the Line of Duty: Royal Warriors. He became a well-respected actor in genre circles in the west after his performance in the 1999 J-Horror Ring. Sanada's desire to push himself saw him leave martial arts mostly behind in the 2000s as he went to Hollywood for films like The Last Samurai, The White Countess and Danny Boyle's Sunshine. He has mostly continued to act in western-financed blockbusters ever since like Speed Racer, The Wolverine and Life. The now 60 year old will return to action this year with Mortal Kombat, Zach Snyder's Army of the Dead and David Leitch's Bullet Train.

It's a whole new year and we've got a whole new episode for you! This week we spoke remotely with special guest and fellow HeadStuff alumnus Mark Conroy about the flourishing career of Bill Camp. Known best as a stage actor throughout the 90s and 2000s, he began to appear in bit parts in films like Steven Spielberg's Lincoln and Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu's Birdman in the early 2010s. From 2015 onwards he became a popular player with Jeff Nichols who cast him in Midnight Special and Loving as well as Scott Cooper who hired Camp for both his crime thriller Black Mass and his western Hostiles. More significant roles came in The Killing of a Sacred Deer, Molly's Game, Wildlife and last year's Dark Waters.

We spend a lot of time on I Know That Face looking back into the past. For our last episode of 2020 we thought it'd be fun to look forward to next year and all the great movies we'll hopefully get to see - from the return of old masters like Paul Verhoeven and Ridley Scott with Benedetta and The Last Duel respectively to younger guns like Sam Levinson with Malcolm & Marie and Olivia Wilde with her sophomore feature Don't Worry Darling. 2021 will also see the resurgence of the erotic thriller with Adrian Lyne - the father of the genre - returning to filmmaking after a near 20 year hiatus with Deep Water starring real life couple Ben Affleck and Ana de Armas. For those of us who just want to see two big animals fight until one falls over Godzilla vs Kong has us covered. Meanwhile the Guillermo del Toro-produced Antlers and Edgar Wright's Last Night in Soho have us pretty hyped. And of course who can forget 2020's greatest loss, Wes Anderson's The French Dispatch? All that and more in this episode, see you at the movies! This episode is sponsored by the SEAI podcast 180 Degrees .

As his career has moved through decades and crossed into a new century Willem Dafoe has only become more experimental and varied in his parts as he's aged. This week Stephen and Andrew tackle the vast array of roles he's played from 2000 to the present day. Beginning in 2000 with his Oscar nominated role in Shadow of the Vampire, Dafoe went on to play a second iconic villain as the Green Goblin in Spider-Man. His rarely used comedic talents were put to the test in Wes Anderson's The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou and in 2007 with Mr Bean's Holiday. 2009 saw him in seven films including Lars Von Trier's Antichrist while his third Best Supporting Actor Oscar nod came in 2014 with Sean Baker's The Florida Project. 2018 saw a Volpi Cup win in Venice and his first Best Actor nomination at the Oscars as Vincent Van Gogh in At Eternity's Gate. In 2019 he starred opposite Robert Pattinson in Robert Eggers' salty, smoky seadog horror The Lighthouse and in Edward Norton's noir drama Motherless Brooklyn.

Call us Ishmael, because we've just landed our first white whale! In celebration of our first anniversary we've decided to cover the inestimable Willem Dafoe. Over two episodes we'll be looking at his long, varied screen career with Part One covering his work in the 80s and 90s. From Kathryn Bigelow's biker drama The Loveless to William Friedkin's amoral masterpiece To Live and Die in L.A. Dafoe's early film years were dominated by villains and dirtbags. This changed with Oliver Stone's Platoon scoring him his first of four Oscar nods and his first role as Willem Dafriend. More varied roles came in the tail end of the 80s with Martin Scorsese's The Last Temptation of Christ and Alan Parker's Mississippi Burning. This led to his role as Bobby Peru in David Lynch's Wild At Heart, his first collaboration with Paul Schrader in 1992's Light Sleeper and his first collaboration with Abel Ferrara in New Rose Hotel. His ceaseless work ethic, iconic features and desire for challenge put him in good stead as the 90s gave way to the 2000s.

Steele yourselves as the I Know That Face crew take on the terrifying career of Barbara Steele.

A string of Italian horror films followed including The Long Hair of Death, Castle of Blood and Terror-Creatures from the Grave, as well as a role in Federico Fellini's 8 1/2. She also starred in Roger Corman's Poe adaptation The Pit and the Pendulum, Michael Reeves' debut The She Beast and the Hammer horror Curse of the Crimson Altar. She became more selective in the 1970s appearing as the villainous prison warden in Jonathan Demme's debut Caged Heat and as the lonely lesbian Betts in David Cronenberg's Shivers. Although mostly retired Steele has appeared in 2012's De Palma-esque thriller The Butterfly Room, Ryan Gosling's feature Lost River and in Netflix's Castlevania.

Gear up for an eerily pleasant listen as we tackle the career of horror heavyweight Donald Pleasence. In our first of three podcasts on horror icons we examine Pleasence's first forays into horror with an episode of The Twilight Zone and the janky UK anthology film Tales That Witness Madness. Best known as Dr Samuel Loomis - a role he'd play four more times - in John Carpenter's Halloween, Pleasence would work with Carpenter twice more in Escape From New York and Prince of Darkness. Along with Carpenter, Pleasence would collaborate with another icon of 70s and 80s horror in Dario Argento's bizarro sci-fi/giallo slasher Phenomena alongside a chimpanzee and a teenage Jennifer Connolly. Although Pleasence has an unbelievable 238 credits to his name it would be a 90 second Public Service Announcement in 1973 that would cement his reputation as a horror icon especially among children. The Spirit of Dark and Lonely Water advised children against playing near dangerous water with Pleasence voicing the titular spirit. It is still spoken of today in hushed tones, half-remembered in nightmares and on cold, misty days the wind seems to whisper the refrain "I'll be back, back, back..."

This week the guys are joined by book reviewer and Cold Coffee Press founder James Holohan to talk about the intense performances of Paul Dano. Though still young in white male character actor terms, Dano has amassed an incredible body of work in his two decades in the film industry. His debut in 2002's L.I.E proved to be his breakthrough into indie film and led him to Sundance success in Little Miss Sunshine and a BAFTA nod for Paul Thomas Anderson's oil based western There Will Be Blood. He has worked with the likes of Steve McQueen in 12 Years A Slave, Rian Johnson in Looper, Kelly Reichardt in Meek's Cutoff, Bong Joon-ho in Okja and Denis Villeneuve in Prisoners. In 2018 he directed Wildlife which starred Jake Gyllenhaal and Carey Mulligan and which Dano co-wrote with his partner Zoe Kazan. In 2021 he will appear as the Riddler in Matt Reeves' The Batman.

Caleb Landry Jones is one-of-a-kind and not just because he's the first redhead we've covered. Beginning his career with a one line part in the Coen Brothers' No Country for Old Men he was one of several young stars to be launched from Matthew Vaughn's X-Men: First Class. From there Jones took the road less travelled and picked up his first lead in Brandon Cronenberg's 2012 body horror Antiviral. His red hair, pale skin and sharp features secured him roles as disturbed, often sociopathic characters in Heaven Knows What, War on Everyone, Get Out and American Made. He has played successfully against type in Neil Jordan's Byzantium, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, and this year's The Outpost.

This week the I Know That Face crew tackle a titan of Japanese cinema. Ken Watanabe began acting in the late 70s and became widely known throughout Japan for his samurai roles. Beginning with the 1985 classic Tampopo and taking in everything from his work in Tom Cruise's ego project The Last Samurai to Clint Eastwood's sensitive humanistic Letters From Iwo Jima, Watanabe brings a dignified grace to every role he chooses. His presence in western blockbusters like Batman Begins, Inception and both recent Godzilla movies lend an added weight to scenes that would otherwise feel like exposition dumps.

This week on I Know That Face Andrew and Stephen tackle the long, unique career of Jennifer Jason Leigh. An Oscar and Golden Globe nominee for her role as Daisy Domergue in Quentin Tarantino's The Hateful Eight, Leigh's career spans four decades. She broke out as the Hollywood It Girl in Fast Times at Ridgemont High before rejecting the bright but short career of a Tinsel Town starlet in favour of stranger, meatier roles in smaller films like Paul Verhoeven's Flesh + Blood and opposite Rutger Hauer's iconic villain in The Hitcher. Roles in Single White Female, David Cronenberg's eXistenZ and recently Good Time made her a genre heavyweight. She explored more sympathetic characters in higher brow films like The Hudsucker Proxy, Anomalisa, Annihilation while maintaining a career in TV and occasionally on stage.

Following up on their episode on South Korean cinema, hosts Stephen and Andrew dive into the career of South Korean everyman Song Kang-ho - widely loved in his home nation and abroad for performances in the films of several masters such as Bong Joon-ho, Park Chan-wook and Lee Chang-dong. Emerging first in thrillers Shiri and Joint Security Area, Song secured his place as the hot dad of South Korean cinema in the likes of Symapthy for Mr Vengeance and The Host before coming to global attention in Snowpiercer and this year's Oscar winner Parasite. Song Kang-ho's expressive face and ability to slip from lighter-than-air comedy and pitch black darkness - sometimes within a single scene - has kept him in demand for nearly a quarter century.
