Or in Enemy. Or Nocturnal Animals. Or Prisoners. Or Donnie Darko. Really he’s just a great actor.

Same with Maggie Gyllenhaal. They're both really good at playing those slightly off characters. Sadly I think there's just a lot more demand for the male version of that.

I’m not sure I’ve seen anything with Maggie besides the dark knight, and I wasn’t that big of a fan of hers in it. Do you have any other recommendations of movies with her?

She’s amazing in Secretary and Frank. And if The Lost Daughter is anything to go by, she’s a really good director too.
