Angus Sampson

Angus Sampson is the kind of character actor whose name you might forget but whose face you never do. Tucker in Insidious, the Organic Mechanic in Mad Max: Fury Road, Bear Gerhardt in Fargo, Cisco in The Lincoln Lawyer, he keeps showing up and quietly stealing scenes from leads. What I appreciate most is the range behind the gruff exterior, and that he writes, directs, and produces too. That's a filmmaker's brain inside a scene-stealer's body. I have a soft spot for these dependable craftsmen who hold a production together without demanding the spotlight. When Sampson is in the cast, I relax; the film is in good hands.
