Best Scene: Steve Buscemi

He’s been a drunk guitar player in “The Wedding Singer,” argued over pancakes in “Fargo” and gotten beaten up by Willie Nelson and Don Johnson in “Miami Vice” (seriously!). But it’s the small things that matter with Buscemi. That’s why we here at The Envelope have selected his straightforward, reasoned — but expletive-laced — take on refusing to tip a waitress as Mr. Pink in Quentin Tarantino’s 1992 heist film “Reservoir Dogs” as his best scene:

“I’m very sorry the government taxes their tips. That’s … up. That ain’t my fault. It would appear that waitresses are one of the many groups the government … in the … on a regular basis. Show me a piece of paper that says the government shouldn’t do that, and I’ll sign it. Put it to a vote, and I’ll vote for it. But what I won’t do is play ball. And this non-college … you’re giving me, I got two words for that: Learn to … type. Because if you’re expecting me to help with the rent, you’re in for a big … surprise.”
