I have seen more than one poster remark recently that there is no good acting in the movies. I think they tend to have a romantic view of the "Golden Age" as opposed to more contemporary stuff.
In this funny clip from the underappreciated Jackie Brown, we can see the excellent interplay between the characters. De Niro especially knows how to work dialogue and body language.
(Anticipating August's remarks: save it, brother. )
Note: rough language
