Movies starring Ray Liotta

Biography:  Intense is the word for Ray Liotta. He specializes in psychopathic characters who hide behind a cultivated charm. Even in his nice guy roles in "Field of Dreams (1989)" and "Operation Dumbo Drop (1995)", you get the impression that something is smoldering inside of him. Liotta is a very selective actor, averaging less than one movie a year.
