Widely considered among the best actors in film history, DiCaprio is the most recognizable name i...
Arthur is the second of Inception’s two extractors, but his role in the operation is much more focused on the behind-the-scenes planning. He’s quieter than Dom, but his levels of intelligence and strategy are just as impressive when they need to be. Gordon-Levitt brings a much-needed sense of humanity that grounds the film when its sci-fi concepts ...
