Girls rule! Like Nathaniel at Film Experience Blog, I'm generally actress obsessed. Today, he posted his
25 favorite actors, so I thought I'd challenge myself by doing the same. This list is flexible and very likely to change tomorrow, or with the next film I see, either on TV, on video, or in the theatre, but my Top 5 is pretty much a done deal for the foreseeable future: (in no particular order -- well, alphabetical) Michael
Caine, George
Clooney, Hugh Grant, Burt Lancaster and Jack Nicholson.
(FYI: I deeply dig Nicholas Case in serious thespian mode -- not so much when he's doing that action-star thing -- so he makes the cut.)
- Javier Bardem
- Yul Brenner
- Jeff Bridges
- Nicolas Cage
- Montgomery Clift
- Billy Crudup
- Johnny Depp
- Robert Downey Jr.
- Ralph Fiennes
- Cary Grant
- Laurence Harvey
- William Holden
- Rock Hudson
- Jack Lemmon
- Walter Matthau
- Ewan MacGregor
- Steve Martin
- Paul Newman
- David Strathairn
- Spencer Tracy

Nicolas Cage!????????
you hurt me Jeremy you hurt me
Haha, I knew you would say that. The action schtick is unwatchable. But then there's Moonstruck, Adaptation, Matchstick Men, Raising Arizona, Peggy Sue Got Married and, of course, Leaving Las Vegas!
Love your list! (Though I too would never have included Nic Cage.)
Poor Nicolas! I almost went for Alec Baldwin instead, but then I realized that I like him a lot more on TV (30 Rock, Friends, Will & Grace) than I do in movies.
