BTW Quirk, who is your avatar?
Haven't seen him in much, but I like him; he was very good in 'Malcolm X'.
In no particular order: Jason Statham - My favorites: Lock, Stock and two Smoking Barrels and Snatch. Edward Norton - Fight Club, American History X, The Illutionist, Christian Bale - American Phsyco, Harsh Times, Batman Begins, The Prestige, Rescue Dawn. Brad Pitt - Fight Club, A River Runs Through It, Legends of the Fall, Se7en, Twelve Monkeys, Sleepers, Snatch, Troy. Robert Deniro- Too many movies to count. Theres others, but those are my predominant favorites. I cant really think of any female actors. Most of them are more for beauty than acting ability.
I do like that Emily Watson, who someone mentioned upthread -- saw her in that Adam Sandler junk 'Punch Drunk Love' and just saw her again in 'Miss Potter'. Like her a lot. And Kate Winslet is great anyway, but her hilarious turn on Ricky Gervais' 'Extras' absolutely sealed it for me. Streep is always good, but she's been in some genuine shizzat -- "Death Becomes Her?" What the....
Actually, Meryl Streep did stick out in my mind. She was pretty good in Lions for Lambs. Death becomes her was very hilarious as I remember watching that as a kid. I REALLY liked her in the movie "The River Wild." And she isnt bad looking either. I also really like Demi Moore. I forgot all about her until I recently saw "Mr. Brooks," which is a VERY good movie, imo. Might as well add Kevin Costner to the list as well.
I think the only movie I liked with Dennis Haysbert was "Major League."
Did you see "Far from Heaven"? I think that's his best movie and his best performance. Not to mention that Julianne Moore is in it
Julianne Moore -- good call. Though I thought Far from Heaven was insulting twaddle; tolerated it for about an hour (because of JM), but came near to vomiting. This is the one with Dennis Quaid as the closeted upper-middle class twinkie asshole who lays into his wife for jeopardizing their social status by befriending the transcendantly pious black widower with the angelic daughter, right? Jeeezus.
wow. Sorry you didn't like it. I thought it was a great moment of pure 1950's melodramatic cinema. Beautifully shot and brilliantly acted too Edit: I checked the tomatometer to make sure I'm not crazy for liking this movie and it looks like it gets a 90% so I guess I'm not crazy... phew http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/far_from_heaven/
