Jack Nicholson

His performances in one Flew Over The Cookoo's Nest, The Shining, As Good as it Gets and A Few Good Men were simply outstanding.

What separates Jack out for me is that his characters are so believable, regardless of how outrageous and unusual they are.

Who's your favourite?

Harrison Ford, I guess. He's been on far too many movies that I really like to be coincidence.

I keep having to edit my choice!

Actor is a toss up between olden films: Marlon Brando and current: Robert DeNiro

Actress would be past: Greta Garbo and in modern times: Charlize Theron

Hmm... I'm not sure I could pick one but I currently have an obsession with Scarlett Johansson. The W Magazine photo shoot she did with Natalie Portman was HOT!

Jack Nicholson...for so many outstanding roles...in fact always brilliant irrespective of the film/type of film and getting better with age, just as a Great Vintage Port does.

Meryl Streep also in so many outstanding roles across a wide spectrum of types. Another that, like a Great Port, has aged extremely well.

Bogie.
Not a great actor, but a good one and perfect in the roles he did. They are some of my favorites of all time.

This is the only circumstance when two votes are allowed :twisted:

PS: Roy, I now know your pain when you ask those questions which start "If you had to pick just one [Vintage Port] [Shipper] [Colheita] [Aged Tawny] ....." :roll:

PPS: Roy, yes, I know you were pulling my chain on exactly that point :wink:
