	Raising Arizona (1987)
I am unsure if it's the role or the Coens, but this is Nick's best performance bar none. A compeletely wonderful film made all the more remarkable by the fact that he is remotely good in it.
	Wild at Heart (1990)
Lynch lays the smack down on our fearless scene destroyer and keeps him in line. (At least that's what I believe.) Awesome flick.
	Fast Times at Ridgemont High (1982)
Not even a brief glimpse of Cage could hold down the might that is Fast Times.
	Moonstruck (1987)
The movie is so-so, so Nick can only do so much to make it suck more. So-so movie plus so-so actor works out just fine I guess.
