Every Philip Seymour Hoffman Movie Ranked Worst To Best
9. Dan Mahowny - Owning Mahowny (2003)
Owning Mahowny is a searing tale of addiction and crime. Hoffman stars as Dan Mahowny, a disgruntled and depressed accountant who embezzles over $10 million in order to feed and cover up his increasingly dangerous gambling addiction.
It's a real-life drama that casts Hoffman in one of his most powerful roles, playing Dan as incredibly downtrodden and sombre but also tragic and deceptive. The film follows Dan as his life begins to unravel, and allows Hoffman to really dig into the nuts and bolts of what makes the man tick. Rarely has Hoffman been in such commanding control of a movie.
