The Greatest Role In Samuel L. Jackson’s Entire Career an Argylle Review
He played it like a man who’s been in over 150 movies would have.
Samuel L. Jackson is one of the most storied and prolific actors of multiple generations at this point. If you name it, he’s done it. If it’s something ridiculous like Formula 51, he’s done it. If it’s something action-packed, he’s done it alongside Bruce Willis in Die Hard: With A Vengence and Unbreakable. If it’s dramatic, he’s made that role call him “daddy mother fucker” a few times in Pulp Fiction or The Red Violin. Samuel L. Jackson is one of the best, and I finally have gotten the opportunity to see what I think HE may think is the best role he’s ever been offered. All they had to do was send him to a vineyard.
It probably happened something like this:
Sam is out playing golf he gets a call from his agent.
AGENT — Sam! Sammy! Bubala! How you doing?!
SAM JACKSON — I’m fine fool. Why you calling me on the golf course?
AGENT — Sammy baby, you know I hate to bother you, but we need to decide on your next movie.
SAM JACKSON — What have I told you? If the movie is over my budget then “hell yeah” and if it’s not then “hell no.” What’s so gotdam hard to understand…
