The best performances throughout the history of cinema aren’t grounded in standard craft or technique; rather they offer the audience a feeling of invention, connection, emotional depth, and overall relatable growth – regardless of whether the character is likeable or not. This attention to complexity creates some of the most iconic roles, ones that are career-defining and ultimately capture the zeitgeist.
Acting will always be one of the primary pillars of storytelling, often working as a bridge that transports us into the world the director has envisioned. With our 2025 Fathom’s Big Screen Classics series featuring some of the most iconic characters across cinema, we got ready for our close up and shined the spotlight bright on the leading roles in our latest blog:
