I was watching Michael Mann's Heat the other day, and it struck me that both Tom Noonan (Francis Dollarhyde in Manhunter) and Ted Levine (Buffalo Bill in Silence of the Lambs) were in it.

unfair to compare fiennes' performance with him. fiennes' dolarhyde was way more complex and pitiable. but noonan's was scary, chilling. 1986 was great year for serial killers. francis dolarhyde and frank booth!!!!

Noonan owned that role!
And those tats looked pretty cool!
And was true to the book.

I <3 him sooooo much. xxx :)

Tom Noonan was also good as a preacher in that Jack Nicholson film The Pledge. One of his rare good guy roles, and still he was good. Roger Ebert once wrote that any film with Harry Dean Stanton in it can't be that bad. I agree. Alpha Dog rocked. Any film with Tom Noonan in it is worth watching, too.

Def Best was The Ripper in Last Action Hero, Manhunter, solid 2nd, Gil Grissom fucking up your day is overrated

You can't help but love this guy!!!!!!

he's also in a very under-rated movie called knock around guys (at least i enjoyed it). yea, what a great actor and manhunter is one of my favorite movies of all time. just became available on bluray though it has to be purchased as a set (with silence of the lambs and hannibal)

I wouldn't have the patience to have all that tatoo drawn on me. I should drink till I pass out, then they could give me that tattoo.

Tom is one of the most beautiful, sensitive and artistically bold artists I have ever met. Michael Mann's direction combined with Tom's presence is most likely the reason why this film is a classic. With few words Tom's sensitivity is beautifully captured. It is not hard to understand why so many people are drawn to this film--Tom is the emotional anchor.
criminally underated actor.

Tom Noonan is my favorite actor. His performance in "Manhunter" is overwhelming.
