Your favorite (male) actors

[Carol the Dabbler]

Oh I like Enrico Colantoni too, although I've only see him in one role.

 

Galaxy Quest?

[Van Buren Supernova]

Person of Interest.

He was unknown to me before that.

 

Anyway, eventhough I have that list of favorites, I actually get a lot of kicks watching something without knowing anyone, when the actors are talented, it's real treat. I watched many TV shows going blind and get rewarded that way.

 

Oh geez, forget, I need to kick out someone else to fit Mad Mikkelsen.

(Or I just pretend I did)

Al Pacino

Sean Connery

Brad Pitt (Not he only his acting)

Leonardo De Caprio

Matt Demon

Marlon Brando

Danny De Vito

Anthony Hopkins

Jack Nicholson

Robin Williams

[Arcadia]

One of my favorites (for his roles, I know nothing about him personally) just died; Jared Martin. I met him once, at a sci fi convention. Almost as short as me. He was lovely with the fans.

God rest him Arcadia.

This was my original list:

Martin Freeman
Leonard Nimoy
Alan Rickman
Ian McKellen
Mark Lenard
Harrison Ford
Gene Wilder
Adam Sandler
Timothy Hutton
Tony Shalhoub
 
Then I tentatively added Hank Azaria.  Now I'm adding Enrico Colantoni ....

Eesh, just realized I haven't mentioned Dustin Hoffman!  He has been just marvelous in everything I've ever seen him in, which includes a wide range of characters.  So now I've got to drop three from my list?  OK, here goes (in alphabetical order):

• Enrico Colantoni
• Harrison Ford
• Martin Freeman
• Dustin Hoffman
• Timothy Hutton
• Leonard Nimoy
• Alan Rickman
• Adam Sandler
• Tony Shalhoub
• Gene Wilder

Subject to further waffling, of course!

We could make this "living actors only", and you'd have room for a few more. 😞

Is that really relevant, though?  Once a performance is recorded, it's potentially immortal.

[Arcadia]

I imagine it's relevant only if you want it to be.
