Glory As a young man, Freeman had Hello Dolly! in 1967. In the 1970s he continued to work on the stage and also appeared on the educational children’s television show The Electric Company as the character Easy Reader. Freeman’s performance in the film Brubaker (1980) and on the Another World (1982–84), along with several enthusiastic reviews for his theatrical work in the early 1980s, led to more challenging film roles. Freeman later appeared in several crime dramas, including Kiss the Girls (1997), and Along Came a Spider (2001)—the latter two based on The Sum of All Fears (2002). He won an Academy Award for best supporting actor for his performance as a former boxer in Batman Begins (2005). Freeman The Dark Knight (2008) and The Dark Knight Rises (2012). In In 2008 Freeman returned to Broadway after nearly 20 years away from the stage, taking the role of Frank Elgin, a talented yet dispirited actor who has lost the will to perform, in The Country Girl. The following year he reteamed with Eastwood on Red (2010); as a high-ranking U.S. politician in the thriller Freeman went for laughs in the buddy comedy

Amy Sussman/Getty Images Street Smart. Since then, the 83-year-old icon has appeared in more than 100 films and racked up five Oscar nominations. Now, on the eve of his latest release — the down-and-dirty crime thriller Vanquish (in theaters April 16, on VOD April 20) — we thought it was high time to count down Freeman's top films. See if your favorites match ours. 1.

As Red, Freeman is spectacularly understated, mixing compassion, desperation, resignation and finally something like ecstasy as he finally tastes freedom and is reunited with his pal, Robbins's Andy Dufresne, on a sunny beach in Mexico. It's a movie that gets better and deeper with each viewing. Watch it: The Shawshank Redemption, on TCD/Prod.DB/Alamy Stock Photo 2. Unforgiven (1992) Freeman has often said that his favorite movie is Clint Eastwood's 1976 Western, The Outlaw Josey Wales. So when the actor finally had the chance to co-star with Eastwood in Unforgiven, he didn't need to be asked twice. Ostensibly, the film is about a once-ruthless gunslinger named Bill Munny (E...
