My favorite is Kirk Douglas. I also like Robert DeNiro, Michael Keaton, Cary Grant and Peter Sellers. I've also found Kathryn Hepburn to be outstanding. Connery is by far the best James Bond and there is no one even close.
I skimmed back through and didn’t see Matthew McConnaughy mentioned. Huge omission. Especially once he left the stupid rom coms behind. Good human also. And @Lanny, did you ever see The Party with Peter Sellers? Very funny. My high school friends and I enjoyed it so much we went to Cinema 21 three times in one week to see it.
A few supporting actors I like....no particular order Frances McDormad Steve Buscemi John Goodman Richard Jenkins\Alan Arkin Cloris Leachman
I think Robert Pattinson will be thought of as a great soon enough, if he's not already. Good Time and The Lighthouse are fantastic performances.
Yes, seen it twice and would love to see it a third time. Also loved loved little known After the Fox. One of the world's greatest comedians.
Tilda Swinton is amazing....just amazing, everything she does......I just watched Forest Whitaker in The King of Scotland the other night....another masterful actor.I first saw him in the Crying Game with Stephen Rea who's another great actor......good list I'd add Geoffrey Rush to this list
