What would your favorite Pryce role be? Mine would be Seamus ORourke, the Irish terrorist from Ronin - Pryce played him with such enthusiasm and fervor. He was a truly creepy and excellantly played villain. What are your favorite roles of his, and/or good performances that I should see?

Personally I love his performance as Juan Peron in Evita (I am a sucker for musicals and I love his voice). Although its not a major role i felt he performed it such that it became an essential role. It was the first role I had ever seen him in and i was so impressed and now, even though i still havent seen as many of his performances as i would like, he is one of my favourite actors.
I also enjoyed his Elliot Carver during his stint as a Bond villain. Actually one of my favourite Bond films as a result (generally I prefer the Moore or Connery films).
As Lytton Strachey I felt he was excellent and thouroughly deserved the Awards for the role. I love the scene when the cork pops from the champagne bottle and he says "War musst be dreadfull!" (or something along those lines) Wonderfull.

Mr. Dark from Something Wicked This Way Comes
shareActually I just saw Brazil two days ago and loved it. Jonathan Pryce was brilliant. Both a comic yet serious actor at the same time. fantastic!!!!!!!!!!

Without a doubt Sam Lowry in Brazil.
Jonathan was brilliant in that role. He didn't go overboard with it & that was perfect for the discreet (yet ridiculous) humor.
one of my favorite movies as well
My favorite role is him in the Infiniti automobile commercials.
