    His role choices are wild to me because he can very easily coast by as the stoic lead, or charming goofball but he picks various things that just shows how versatile he really is.

      He definitely enjoys it, which is good because we enjoy seeing him in different roles. Easily, though, my favorite roles for him are the comedic ones like The Nice Guys.

    ‘How does a human being like this exist? It’s like a D&D character with all of his stats maxed out!’ 😂 This, I think, is the BEST description of Gosling I’ve heard to date! ❤ Cool vid! Truly enjoyed your exposé on this very talented actor. 💯🌟 Gosling is indeed one of a kind. He CHOOSES to spread joy and makes a VERY conscious effort to be KIND and considerate in everything he does. Mega-kudos to his mom for raising such a wonderful man. Eva Mendes is an incredibly lucky woman to be loved by such a person. With all that said, I also believe Gosling’s demonstrating that IT CAN BE DONE. We can ALL choose to be kind and amazing people. We’re all capable! We simply have to make a serious, conscious effort to work towards positively improving our own personal well-being which inevitably Pays It Forward onto other people. ❤

    It’s refreshing and encouraging to have someone like him so way up at the top in his industry. Because we’re all getting bombarded with the reality of how everyone else there really is, and to know that there might still be space for artists who aren’t so “phony” and are “for real” gives us a little sliver of hope (or something like it)

A good representation on Ryan consistently resisting the mold, even Refn couldn't help but break it after making him the stoic badass in Drive, he's a pathetic wannabe badass in Only God Forgives. Grey Man is the closest we've got to him taking the easy way out. But then he did Barbie.

    Sad you didn't mention Stay in which he plays the closest approximation to an actual anime sad boy that we've ever seen on screen. In all seriousness he's really good in it and the ending hits like a truck every time. Critics didn't get it and sadly probably never will.

To be honest I’ve never seen a bad performance for Brian. I’ve seen bad movies that he’s in (Barbie) but I’ve never seen a bad performance from this man. He was so funny in “The good guys”….. but please be able to Podeswa always be my favorite. He was so smoking hot in that movie too.

    Nice Guys was so damn good. Came out of nowhere, too, didn't expect it to be so good but it just... _was._
    You can tell by his SNL performances that he's perfectly willing to be as ridiculous as possible and laugh at himself, and he *commits.* Every time. That's what makes him so entertaining. A lot of actors get on SNL and they half-ass it, even the SNL cast tend to, particularly these days, but not Ryan. He's out there giving it 110% like his whole career depends on it.
    Papyrus is probably one of the best SNL shorts because of him.

    I disagree with the Brad Pitt thing. He was a character actor from the beginning. Then pushed into playing the bland lead/supporting character for a few films. Then the charismatic lead/supporting from Fight Club, to Oceans, to Mr, Mrs Smith.
    Then back to character actor with Snatch. A big reminder that his main skill is a character actor with Inglorious Bstrds. Hollywood have ping ponged Brad Pitt between, and he's always shined most as the character actor.
