Favourite Actor/Actress?

[Tillane]

Totally agree with Buscemi. Excellent character actor.

As for my faves...I'd probably have to go with Gene Hackman (for Popeye Doyle and a whole host of other excellent performances), and Sigourney Weaver.

I've been thinking about this a lot and I don't have a favourite as such, (well, that's no surprise, I don't have a favourite anything) but I do think that Kevin Spacey, Gary Oldman and Steve Buscemi would certainly be in my top 10 actors.

Actresses are a bit harder but I love Meryl Streep and Ellen Page, I think Sandra Bullock is underrated and I also like Julia Roberts.

Oooh and Helena Bonham Carter... love her.

Whilst not meaning to sound a little Potter obsessed, Alan Rickman is also a favourite of mine.

(sorry for the double post)

Jared Leto, Brad Pitt, Ed Norton, Kevin Spacey, Sam Rockwell, etc.

 

[No One]

After giving this some thought I realised I don't really have favourite actors/actresses, just favourite performances. Even then I could think of hundreds of these, and then only from a contemporary bunch.

For the sake of brevity I'll go for Choi Min-sik for his turn in Oldboy and Francis McDormund in Fargo.

It is kind of hard to pick.
Some of mine are Alan Rickman,David Tennant,Johnny Depp,Vincent Price,and Rosalind Russell.I'm sure there may be a few more but I'd have to think about it longer.These few come to mind right away.

What an interesting thread. My favourite actor at the moment would be Clive Owen or Daniel Craig, both very easy on the eye also! Oh and Christian Bale too.

I've always liked Julia Roberts as an actress in pretty much anything she has done.

I adore Karen Gillan. I do prefer her with hair.

 

[Christopher Lee]

I would have to go with Christian Bale for actor, and Sandra Bullock for actress.

These change with time but for now:

Actors: Christian Bale, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Daniel Craig
Actresses: Juliette Binoche, Cate Blanchett, Judi Dench
