Noteworthy
- Full Metal Jacket – Private Joker was one of the best parts of the movie and is one of the most memorable characters in the film. This role set Modine apart from all the rest.
- Cutthroat Island – People really hate this movie but I have always enjoyed it. Modine and Davis play well together in this pirate-y romp.
- Stranger Things – This is one of the best Netflix originals EVER. Great cast and an interesting storyline. Modine plays the baddie to the max.
There’s a discipline. When you take someone’s portrait, you don’t have to take 50 photographs, just find that one so that when you release the shutter, that’s the image that you took.
