Who’s your favourite Actor ?

[Davidoff]

Richard Burton, Paul Newman, Montgomery Clift, early Al Pacino, Tom Hardy for blokes
Betty Davies, Liz Taylor, Meryl Streep for the wenches

Burton had such an immense presence

Jack Nicholson...

Diff8cult to narrow it down - but I always seem to enjoy films with the following in:

Clint Eastwood
Jack Nicholson
Tom Hanks
Patrick Stewart
Kenneth Brannagh
Morgan Freeman
Maggie Smith

And even .... Nicholas Cage.

May have been done here before, apologies if it has.

Loads of great actors over the years but who’s your favourite ? For me, it has to Al Pacino. Such a brilliant actor who has played so many memorable characters in some great films. Probably Scent of A Woman is my favourite film of his, although Godfather runs it a close second.

It is tough. Pacino is great but probably Anthony Hopkins for me.

Perhaps already mentioned: Phillip Seymour Hoffman.

Also Daniel Day Lewis

 

[Abertonian]

De niro
Sam Rockwell
Ed Norton
John Cazale
Gene Hackman
Denzel

Alec Guiness his career full of highlights.

I would turn for Matthew McConaughey. NEA.

 

[cronullasharks]

Laurence Fishburne is a terrific actor too.

 

[blue61]

Old school me, Henry Fonda, Bogart, Charlton Heston, with a bit of James Stewart thrown in. Of modern actors, I'd go for Tom Hanks.

Al Pacino is hammy AF btw

I struggle to take him seriously in anything apart from Godfather.
