John Cusack, love him, under-rated and not on the wide screen enough. Cate Blanchett, she's beautiful without being tacky hollywood and is an amazing actress.
I agree wholeheartedly about John Cusack and would add Clive Owen and Kevin Bacon to the list. Nicole Kidman, Judi Dench and Rachel Weiss should be on it too.
Gregory Peck, Henry Fonda, James Caan, John Malkovitch,Walther Matthau,William Holden Audrey Hepburn (okay,not a great actress but buckets of style and has the distinction of being a famous Belgian!), Glenn Close, Debra Winger (Sp.), Lauren Bacall................
Alan Rickman love him as snape and even in the january man hes cool and then theres the line from dogma whens shes about to hit him with a fire extinguisher or bat i cant remember which and says"your going to hit me with a fish" then in second plcae sean Bean tight trousers in sharpe! Then with the bronze medal is shawn Pertwee.then out of the classic shakespre actors and i know what his personal life is like it dereck jacobi soft spoken and perfect for the role of cadfael.
there are so many greats, but at the moment i am quite (very!) found of the aussie actor Heath Ledger.
i have done some research and he has a dance award of somekind, and other great acheivements. and hes only 23!!! as well as all this he is so so so cute! as doodlebug says keep giving them those tight trousers!!!!!
Can't belive no-one has mentioned Robert De Niro! Also Al Pachino, Samuel L Jackson, John Travolta, Edward Norton, Mel Gibson, Morgan Freeman As for the ladies, Julia Roberts, Michelle Phifer, Ashley Judd can't think of any more.
