I like Nicholson, Deniro, Pacino, but my all time favorite is Christopher Walken.

ok, but Randy that is the very reason I included him on my list. Tom Hanks is a guy who totally redefined himself professionaly at something like the age of 37. when Hanks was 35, he was a big name and was on the hollywood walk of fame. yet he was a complete waste of an actor. appeared in stupid tv shows and did really unoriginal comedic movies. if he had retired at that point, we would remember him as a bad version of Ben Stiller. then he makes a distinct career move and stops playing the leading role in comedies. started with Philadelphia. horrible movie, but he deserved all the critical acclaim that he recieved for his portrayal of human filth. then went on to Appolo 13 with RHoward, Saving Private Ryan. The Green Mile, Road to Perdition, Cast Away, Catch Me if You Can, ...... he was awesome in all of those films and really defined them. can you imagine what any of those films would be like if another actor had played his lead role? would be like Gladiator without Russel Crowe. this is a guy that made 2 hours of a man talking to a volleyball seem interesting. anyway, I just think that few ppl have reinvented themselves as an actor that late in life.

Repent he's made more bad movies than good and the ones he's gotten acclaim for were not very good. He's decent but no the best of alltime. Repent, you don't believe it yourself. Right?

this is tough Randy. b/c nothing you are saying is incorrect. if you look at his resume, he has done more BAD movies than good ones. you are absolutely right. but he has gone on an unparrelled streak in the last 10 years that simply is not very common. how many good actors totally reinvent themselves at that age? is he one of the 5 best pure actors? Im not sure, but he brings a presence and humanity to most of his recent roles that other actors simply could not. Repent |

Really hard question...I don't know if it's easy to separate actors from their vehicles...good movies make good actors while good actors don't necessarily make good movies...I'll list my personal favorites rather than claim they are the "best":
Male: 1) Anthony Hopkins 2) David Boreanz 3) Richard Burton 4) Roy Dupuis Female: 1) Sarah Michelle Gellar 2) Alyson Hannigan 3) Merryl Streep 4) Juliette Lewis

Lauren Bacall 2. Helen Hunt 3. Diane Keaton 4. Rebecca Johnson (you guys may not know her now, but you will!)
