If you're smitten with Daniel Craig, the new James Bond, you can find him playing poets, professors, lotharios and cold-hearted killers.
The 38-year-old British actor has a long list of stage and film credits, from "Layer Cake" to "Lara Croft: Tomb Raider" and beyond. A handful to look for:
"Infamous," 2006 -- This is the recent release saddled with the moniker of "the other Capote film," the one starring Toby Jones. Daniel Craig is almost unrecognizable as killer Perry Smith, disappearing behind dark hair and eyes. He spends much of his time behind bars and shares a kiss with Truman Capote.
"Munich," 2005 -- The New York Times critic (a woman) called Craig's character "the sexy South African in tight pants." He's Steve, a pugnacious trigger man in this Steven Spielberg thriller about a team assembled to find -- and kill -- the men behind the murders of 11 Israelis during the 1972 Olympics. Steve has a license to kill, but the acts of vengeance take a toll on him.
"Enduring Love," 2004 -- This adaptation of Ian McEwan's novel begins in the English countryside, where a college professor (Craig) is about to propose to his girlfriend (Samantha Morton). But a hot-air balloon crashes nearby, changing the fate of those in the air and on the ground, including Rhys Ifans as an obsessed rescuer who feels a kinship to Craig.
"The Mother," 2004 -- Anne Reid and Craig star in this messy adult tangle of secrets, worries, regrets, resentments, recriminations, missteps, manipulation and lust. Reid plays a new widow in her 60s who takes a shine to a much-younger, handsome builder, played by Craig. Problem is, he's involved with her needy drama queen daughter. Oy.
"Sylvia," 2003 -- Gwyneth Paltrow has the title role, suicidal poet Sylvia Plath, while Craig plays poet Ted Hughes, the man who captivated her with his looks and talent. In real life, Plath praised his "taut thighs" and they eloped four months after meeting. Their love story met a tragic end; he left her for another woman, she turned on the gas in the kitchen and killed herself.
"Road to Perdition," 2002 -- Paul Newman is an Irish mob boss who has sons both biological and surrogate in this Depression-era film. Daniel Craig is his actual and very jealous son, a loose cannon named Connor Rooney, and Tom Hanks is his surrogate son. Both are on the road to perdition, but Hanks is trying to save the soul of his surviving son.
At the time of the movie's release, director Sam Mendes said he wanted a relative unknown as Connor, who sets the story into motion. "I felt if this character were to work, he would almost have to creep up on the audience. Danny is dark, brooding and hugely charismatic, but there is also a great vulnerability there. I knew when I met him that he was the right man for the job."
