Filmmaker Caleb Slain spent upwards of 200 hours compiling scenes from Hoffman’s best performance — from _Almost Famous_ to _Mission Impossible_ _III_ to _Capote_. The nearly 22-minute tribute is a beautiful reminder of the sheer enormity of Hoffman’s work, his range and his talent. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/12994/philip-seymour-hoffman-best-performances-video/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/12994/philip-seymour-hoffman-best-performances-video/"},"headline":"Watch This Epic Tribute to Philip Seymour Hoffman","datePublished":"2014-03-05T19:02:13.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-21T06:35:51.576Z","description":"Hoffman's best performances get rounded up in this extraordinary supercut","url":"https://time.com/12994/philip-seymour-hoffman-best-performances-video/","keywords":["remembrance","celebrities","Philip Seymour Hoffman"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Eliana Dockterman","jobTitle":"Correspondent","url":"https://time.com/author/eliana-dockterman/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/remembrance/","name":"remembrance"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/12994/philip-seymour-hoffman-best-performances-video/","name":"Watch This Epic Tribute to Philip Seymour Hoffman"}}]}] ```
