Wjo are your favorite actors/actresses?

strokeofgenius · Nov 3, 2001

I gotta go with:

Morgan Freeman ("The Shawshank Redemption" is one of the greatest films ever made.)

Robin Williams (I personally think he's better in dramatic roles then in comic ones; except for "Cadillac Man"; bust-a-gut funny!)

Al Pacino (I like pretty much any movie he makes.)

John Malkovich (His villian in "In the Line of Fire" is one of the greatest villians in film history.)

Dustin Hoffman (I think he's one of the best actors ever.)

And for the ladies:

Julia Roberts (She's terrific as an actress, but I don't see why everyone thinks she's so gorgeous; she's pretty, but that's about it.)

Meg Ryan (Does great work in romantic comedies; I still like her paired up with Tom Hanks.)

Sandra Bullock (Love that girl-next-door quality; I also like most of the movies people say are lousy for her.)

Helen Hunt (She was good in "As Good as it Gets"; not convinced she deserved the Oscar, but she was in top form.)

Angelina Jolie (Weird girl, but when she feels like acting, she's pretty great.)

Any other thoughts?

By the way: for me, the world stops for Humphrey Bogart, should I be flipping channels and find one of his films. It stops dead on its axis.
