Nicolas Cage is undoubtedly one of Hollywood's most skilled actors.
At 60 years old, Cage has appeared in a total of 120 films since his role in the 1983 film Valley Girl.
Cage won an Oscar in 1995 for his role in Leaving Las Vegas alongside Elisabeth Shue.
That same year, his performance in Face/Off with John Travolta was also highly praised.
The renowned actor's latest film, Longlegs, has been released.
We've previously mentioned the film. In Longlegs, Cage plays a supporting role as a serial killer. The film has been both highly praised and described as disgusting by critics. It has even been regarded as 'the scariest film of the last 10 years.'
Recently, Nicolas Cage gave an interview to the New Yorker, where he answered various questions.
One of his responses was particularly noteworthy. When asked which Nicolas Cage film someone should watch if they had never seen one before, the actor did not mention an Oscar-winning or highly acclaimed film.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Cage's favorite film is Pig, directed by Michael Sarnoski and released in 2021.
Those who have seen Pig will remember that the pig in the film was quite savage.
The pig was savage because, with a budget of only $3 million, an untrained pig was used, and during filming, the unruly pig bit Nicolas Cage several times.
In the film, Cage plays Rob, a truffle hunter who was once a famous chef. Living in the wilds of Oregon, Rob sets out to find the thieves who kidnapped his beloved pig.
In part of the interview, the Oscar-winning actor also mentioned,
'Acting is now more interesting and personal for me.'
