Think I recognize the actor on the right as either the guy that played the gay Hillbilly in Ozark, or it could be Jesse Plemons with a beard??
I'm at a total loss on this one, but am loving this whole thread. Such a celebration of cinema!

It makes me super happy to read this! Glad I started the thread 😀
Good guesses based on his build, but think Lobsters and Banshees 😉
The one I remember with Brendan Gleeson is "The General". Really funny Irish ganster film. Is that it?
I'm almost certain he's clean-shaven in that.
..and I'm pretty certain he doesn't have a beard in In Bruges
Is that Jerry's boy, ages ago? in Empire of the Sun?
As self-evident and iconic as I think it is?
Here's a fun one for Friday:
I so regret seeing all four different versions of this, as the best by far is the original theatrical release.
Each new version only takes something away it doesn't add anything at all other than frustration bewilderment and incongruousness.. Robert Duvale's portrayal of the Lieutenant Colonel was genius, but to hear him calling out from a helicopter wanting his surfboard back over and over was utterly ridiculous, together with all of the other additions, that only subtracted from its greatness.
That being said, Hearts of Darkness made by Francis's wife Eleanor is one of the best making-of documentaries films I have ever seen, and if you haven't seen it I wholeheartedly recommend it, it's a truly great film in its own right.
