Why does this guy keep getting gigs? Has he ever given a good performance? I've only ever seen him be complete shit on screen.

Because Hollywood is full of awful people with leverage and money. Know the right person or the right secret and who knows, you might just be president one day.

I want to say requiem for a dream but it’s been a while and idk if he himself acted well or not.

I do remember Marlon Waynes was good, but that’s because I knew him from white chicks and was like, huh, he can do a serious role, good for him.

He gave an excellent performance in Dallas Buyers Club. That’s about the only one I’m aware of.
