Didn't realize I was a comedy gal until just now.
Love Jason Segal. Like most things that Paul Rudd is in except things that seem too "Ben Stillerish" Adore the newly remade Vince Vaughn.

Now my head is spinning. Spencer Tracy, maybe one of the greatest of all time. Loved Robert Ryan. And Joseph Cotton. Not a big fan of bleeding heart pinko Fonda family. Definitely Olsen Twins. They were great in "Debbie Loves Dallas".

I have it on good authority that many of the posters on here have two favorite actors...Sean Penn and Danny Glover. One has a basement wall coverd with Lethal 'Weapon posters and the other wall with Hugo Chavez memorbilia.

Sean Penn. He can play any role magnificently.

I too believe that the great actors/actresses are mainly gone or too old to be in the business. William Holden is a favorite. Eli Wallach should've gotten best supporting actor for his portrayal of Tuco Benedicto Pacifico Juan Maria Ramirez in TG,TB,TU. Paul Newman, Marlon Brando and so on. Kim Novak, yes, was beautiful and a great actress. I think that 99% of the motion pictures made today are just junk so it's difficult for me to get enthusiastic about todays' actors.

Dakota Fanning, when she was a little girl.

Orlando Jones. His afflictive portrayal in "Office Space" of a recovering substance abuser forced to peddle magazines door-to-door established him as perhaps the finest ingénue of our generation.
Agnostick 3 years, 1 month ago
Currently acting in Hollywood? Tom Hanks, he usually does good with whatever's handed to him. I've enjoyed watching Natalie Portman go from this little girl in "The Professional" and "Beautiful Girls," and keeping herself together. Bruce Willis is pretty fun to watch, given the right material. Gene Hackman, too.
I think most of the truly beautiful actresses are long gone. Kim Novak tops my list, with Eva Marie Saint a close second. Cary Grant and James Stewart. Is it obvious I like Hitchcock? :p
