I like her a lot, she was excellent as Elizabeth.

Gene Kelly - because he was also a cracking director.

One of my faves is Tom Hanks, I have liked most of his films and I don't think anyone else could have played the part of Josh Baskin in Big with that childlike way that he had. I have seen him being interviewed a number of times and he has always come across as a really nice guy.

Christopher Walken
Jack Nicholson
Robert de Niro
Pete Postlethwaite

I wouldn't necessarily go and see a film just because Hanks is in it, but I have to say that few actors could manage to hold the screen in the way he did in the majority of Castaway.

I've got to admit that I wasn't keen on Castaway. I loved him in Forest Gump amd becuase of his performance it is one of my favorite films. I can't think of anyone else playing that part.

Clint just edged Gene Hackman. Purely because he is a director as well. Oh and that Growl

Al Pacino, Clint Eastwood and for his performance as the Dude, Jeff Bridges. Oh and shooter Mcgavin from happy Gilmore.

Clint is one of those that will go down in history, like Paul Newman and Steve McQueen. I was watching a bit of Gran Torino last might on sky, I have seen it a few times and I love it, I am already well on my way to being that character that Clint plays.

Ha ha. I know a few. They are not as racist but definitely have a growl and youth hating attitude. I will be watching it sometime this week as it is on anytime I believe.

I had a bit of a think and decided that if I had a top 3 it would probably be Cint Eastwood, Gene Hackman and Anthony Hopkins.
