Robert De Niro: The Actor of the Decade

Robert De Niro turns 80 years old this year. He more than almost any signature actor of their generation effectively starts at the beginning of a massive sea change in the industry that he works in. If you look at the parts that he has taken on in the 70s, he is arguably the actor of the decade. The thing that happened for me is I came of age watching like the Joe Pesci show, uh, bits on SNL.
