It would be hard to conceive of any other cast.

Yep. Everyone in that movie was perfectly cast. This may be the best one, damn. Billy Crystal, Andre the Giant, Mandy Patinkin, etc…

There is a shortage of perfect movies in the world. It would be a shame not to mention this one.

And not just the casting. The whole movie is perfect, one of the best of all time.

If I couldn't find this in the comments, I was going to post it. It is my default answer for the best-cast movie of all time and I will die on that hill.
