Gene Hackman is a movie legend.

Born on Jan. 30, 1930, Hackman found success in acting after years in New York spent working side gigs and rooming with two other struggling actor buddies — Dustin Hoffman and Robert Duvall.

And he did just that, going on to enjoy a decades-spanning career that included countless awards, including 5 Oscars.

To celebrate his 90th birthday, these are Hackman's best films.
