Who is your favourite actor?

[Russeljones]

Robert Duvall is top 10. Jack Nicholson is top 5. I really like Peter Sellers, but he is probably outside the top 10. Oh, and Alain Delon (wild card).

Delon is great. Surprising star in Red Sun, a western starring Charles Bronson and TOSHIRO MIFUNE!

I think the first film of his I saw was The Passage. Gripping.

Haven't seen it yet. Not my favourite subject matter as you know

Ok, understand , yes its scary.

 

[SystemicAnomaly]

I keep thinking of more....this should be called the impossible thread!

John Cusack, Bill Murray, Kirsten Wiig.

Another vote for John Cusack. Other favorites include Robin Williams, Jeremy Piven, Stanley Tucci, Liam Neeson, Harrison Ford, Sean Connery, Jack Nicholson, Tom Hanks, Robert Downey Jr, Dustin Hoffman,

Tom Hardy is a very good actor but is a little tight cased as the villain now.

Check out the upcoming projects...there are a couple of villains (Al Capone and the twin Kray brothers from London's underworld in the 50s/60s) but he is also playing Elton John in a biopic "Rocketman" and the hero in "Child 44", which if it's as good as the book, will be a box office smash!

 

[tipsa...don'tlikehim!]

Tom Hardy is a decent actor but not that fantastic IMO, watch the movie Bronson, i don't like his performance in that movie

 

[tipsa...don'tlikehim!]

I 'd like to mention Russell Crowe as a solid actor

and Denzel Washington by the way, great movie together (American gangster)

 

[tipsa...don'tlikehim!]

Delon is great. Surprising star in Red Sun, a western starring Charles Bronson and TOSHIRO MIFUNE!

Haha i remember that movie

 

[tipsa...don'tlikehim!]

I strongly recommend everyone to watch this movie
MAN BITES DOG (don't know why they translated it this way)

Benoit Poelvoorde is one of the greatest actor of all time IMO (belgian actor)

Weird movie and a bit violent but also funny
Must watch

 

[DRII]

great actors: Anthony Hopkins, Jack Nicholas, Denzel Washington, Mel Gibson (even if he's crazy when drunk)...

great actresses (are we allowed to use that word anymore?): Angela Basset, Jodie Foster, Jessica Tandy...

I just saw him in "Locke" an interesting movie that happens in real-time in a car.


^^ I think you mean Jack Nicholson, not Nicholas.

Just to name a few,

Clint was terrific in Josey Wales, I agree. Gran Torino is better, in my view.
Gene Hackman - Unforgiven. Really? I'd say his performance in Mississippi Burning was miles better.

cool list

I like the scene where he's bragging about building his own house, "well the Roberts boy carried some lumber."

True, true, one of the highlights, I always thought!

Btw, he is outstanding in Hoosiers.

James Stewart, Peter O'Toole & De Niro

Noel Coward: "She stopped the show – but then the show wasn't traveling very fast."

 

[Oriental_Noodle]

For me, it was Matthew McConaughey in True Detective and Dallas Buyers Club

O'Toole is massive!
