Poll: Favorite Gene Hackman Movie
There's no specific word to describe the talent of Gene Hackman, he could be intimidating and funny, authoritarian and easy-going, evil and goofy, suave and scary... he wasn't a man of contradictions or a man of thousand faces but he had quite a presence, he was a natural and he's still... one "hack" of a man!
In homage to the legendary actor who retired too soon, here's a list of his most memorable roles and performances (small bits or cameos not included).
Which of these Gene Hackman movies is your personal favorite?

This option also includes any "Another" Hackman movie you had in my mind and that didn't make the list, movies such as The Chamber (1996), Welcome to Mooseport (2004) or perhaps the most unforgivable omission of my poll-maker's career, Golden Palm Winner Scarecrow (1973)...
