    Winslet and Streep are 2 standard deviations above everyone else.


    Among the males, I would add Johnny Depp. Some may not care for his flicks, but he is one talented actor.

    Will Smith? Julia Roberts? They suck. Jack Nicholson is overrated as an actor.

    What's happened to actors? I remember when we had Vincent Price and Eli Wallach. Real actors.

    Re: Who are the BEST (not favorite) actors and actresses

    John Lithgow. Joe Pesci. Sean Penn (hate him, but he can act)

    I look for actors with great range. I think you could place those two above into any character and they would shine.

    On the other hand, actors like Morgan Freeman are overrated. Most of their accolades come about playing parts that are actually quite easy to pull off. As they say, anyone can die or cry in a movie.

    Re: Who are the BEST (not favorite) actors and actresses

    Keep in mind... all opinion:

    Actors

    Matt Damon (Nope. Like his screen persona, not a great actor.)
    Sean Penn (Yup.)
    Jeff Bridges (Meh. Overrated. He basically plays a used-up hippy in every role.)
    Tom Hanks (Yup.)
    Dustin Hoffman (Yup. Though missing recently.)
    Jack Nicholson (Yup. Though missing recently.)
    Terence Howard (No. And WTF, no Cuba Gooding or Wayne Brady? Better Eddie Murphy than all of them.)
    Will Smith (Hell no. See Matt Damon.)
    Denzel Washington (Yup.)

    Missing a whole heapin' pile:

    Gene Hackman
    Johnny Depp
    Kevin Spacey
    George Clooney (Use his comedy turns as evidence, he has serious chops.)
    William H. Macy
    Steve Buscemi
    Robert Duval
    Al Pacino
    Morgan Freeman
    James Woods
    Daniel Day Lewis
    Leonardo Dicaprio
    Steve Martin (have to have respect for the comedic to dramatic crossover actor, or just the brilliant comedic acting)
    Robin Williams (ditto)
    Peter O'Toole (dude is still alive)
    Christopher Plummer (him too)
    Harvey Keitel
    Tim Roth
    Jon Malcovich
    Russel Crowe
    Ben Kingsley
    John Cusack
    Forest Whitaker

    Oh, and Chuck Norris.

    And I left out a few of my favorites that I think basically play the same personality every time out, but are pretty good... Liam Neeson, Clint Eastwood, Tommy Lee Jones, Marc Wahlberg, etc.


    Actresses

    Meryl Streep (Yup)
    Judi Dench (Yup)
    Julia Roberts (Yup)
    Helen Mirren (Yup)
    Kate Winslet (Yup, begrudgingly)
    Charlize Theron (Yup)

    And...

    Penelope Cruz
    Frances McDermott
    Hillary Swank
    Kathy Bates
    Diane Keaton
    Holly Hunter

    I'm not as good with the gals because I keep thinking "Megan Fox".

    But if I think of more I'll add.

    Re: Who are the BEST (not favorite) actors and actresses

    As mentioned above by odanorth Daniel Day Lewis and Leonardo Dicaprio for sure. I would add Edward Norton too. I think Brad Pitt is underrated too.

    Thank you for remebering Liam Neison and Edward Norton.

    Agreed on Anthony Hopkins and Brad Pitt. Lots of great performances from both.

    Jodie Foster?

    Re: Who are the BEST (not favorite) actors and actresses

    i would add ed norton, leo dicaprio, especially over the last 5-6 years, and steve carrell. he is amazing on the office, and was fantastic in dan in real life. probably the best comedic actor over the last few years.
