It's anxious enough to view, so one can only imagine how extremely demanding it must have been for the 76-year-old star to film.
8. Vessel Leader (2013)
The lead actor does excellent performance in one of his regular-guys-under-intolerable-pressure performances, as the captain of an commercial transport seized by maritime criminals off the Horn of Africa.
