A surprise list to start your morning off right. We've been thinking a lot about Stranger Things these past couple of weeks, and many of those thoughts have revolved around the unexpectedly hefty role for usual supporting player David Harbour. I personally think he's Best in Show in that sci-fi fantasy 80s nostalgia trip. The first time I remember seeing him was on Broadway in 2001 as the object of Robert Sean Leonard's crushing in Tom Stoppard's The Invention of Love. His profile has been growing slowly ever since and its a treat to see him make so much of such a big opportunity in the Netflix hit.

Favorite David Harbour Performances

01 Jim Hopper in Stranger Things (2016)

02 Nick in Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (Broadway Revival, 2005. Tony nomination)

03 John Morris in Black Mass (2015)

04 Shep Cambell in Revolutionary Road (2008)

05 Moses Josh Jackson in The Invention of Love (Broadway, 2001)

 

06 Randall in Brokeback Mountain (2005)

 

07 Van Hauser in End of Watch (2012) 

I personally haven't seen several of his TV roles (where he's worked as a regular series member in various shows) but those are the seven of his performances I've enjoyed the most up above. How about you, what do you think of his work?
