[tps_title]6.Royal Tenenbaum in The Royal Tenenbaums[/tps_title]
Royal Tenenbaum is one of the best Gene Hackman roles ever. It’s also one of my favorite movies of all time. (Gotta love Wes Anderson!) Royal may be a hilarious and questionably immoral person overall, but you know the guy cares for his rather dysfunctional family.
Favorite Quote:
Ari: Were you in prison?
Royal: Kinda. Minimum security. I got jacked by the IRS. Shall we split?
Ari: Yes, sir.
Royal: No, call me Mr. Tennenbaum.
Ari: OK.
Royal: Oh, I’m kidding. Call me Pappy.
