13. Chiseler – Gangs of New York
The bar fight that Leo gets into with McGloin after he’s called a “chiseler,” well not actually, but after a back and forth it’s agreed upon that a “chiseler” is a good comparison for what he is actually called. The entire exchange gets to show Leo under the watchful eye of Bill the Butcher (Daniel Day Lewis), and when those two get to share the same screen, it’s going to be a good time. While Day Lewis may outshine DiCaprio a bit with a much more dynamic character, they both prove to be head and shoulders above the vast majority of their peers.
