I Know That Face | Bob Hoskins

By Stephen Porzio

On the latest episode of I Know That Face hosts Andrew and Stephen discuss the late Cockney legend Bob Hoskins. An Oscar nominee and Golden Globe winner Hoskins was well known for his sinister villains and anti-heroes in The Long Good Friday, The Cotton Club and Unleashed. That said, the actor’s best work came when he was cast against type as the reluctant hero of Who Framed Roger Rabbit? and the smitten, naive ex-con in Neil Jordan’s Mona Lisa. Although Hoskins passed away in 2014 his work in both supporting and leading roles as well as his turn as Super Mario is fondly remembered.
