Favorite Non-Trek movies with Trek actors

One of the most beautiful, romantic and intelligent films I've ever seen is "Cairo Time," with Alexander Siddig and Patricia Clarkson.
Sid is so amazingly good in this film; I can't understand why he isn't a regular "leading man", but that's the film biz for you.

There are a load of Colm Meaney movies which are way more interesting than Con Air or Under Siege (though I do love Con Air).

The Damned United (about Brian Clough’s short spell as manager of Leeds Utd - he plays Clough’s predecessor Don Revie; I’ve little interest in soccer but it’s a good film)

Intermission - ensemble crime black comedy &!also features Cillian Murphy & Colin Farrell

The Last of the High Kings

The Englishman who went up a Hill But Came Down a Mountain (in which he tries a Welsh accent)

War of the Buttons

Into the West

The so-called Barrytown trilogy, based on the Roddy Doyle novels, namely (in reverse order) The Van, the Snapper and The Commitments. He plays the same character though they had to change the surname from Rabbitte to Curley in The Snapper & The Van, as the studio which made The Commitments owned the rights to the name Rabbitte.

The Dead - John Huston’s last film, based on a James Joyce story.
