My Take

Wes Bentley is my favorite kind of actor: the one who came back. After American Beauty made him a haunted-eyed sensation, his career nearly disappeared, and the second act he built — Seneca Crane's ornamental menace in The Hunger Games, quiet work in Interstellar, and especially Jamie Dutton's slow-motion moral collapse on Yellowstone — feels earned in a way early stardom never is. He plays men who are losing arguments with themselves, and he does it without vanity. I trust performers who have been humbled by their own story, and Bentley wears that history in every scene.

Overview

Wes Bentley (born September 4, 1978) is an American actor.
