note: does anyone have as many illustrated poster art covers on their filmography as he? What a fellow!

Had this list in Private for a while, thinking I should to Public-ize it until I've seen all of Matthau's significant work, but what's the hurry on that? It'll be a sad day when I know there are no more unseen Matthau gems buried out there in the desert for me to accidentally trip over and bond with. I love finding them little by little. This guy is definitely one of my actor favorites.

List ranked by movie quality, not Matthau performance.

I know, it's a travesty to call myself a Matthau fan having not seen most of his '90s old-man comedy duets with Lemmon, but I'll get there eventually. None of them are all that great anyway, right?
