Re: your ten best current actor list
I expected to see Christian Bale, Leo D., and Gary Oldman on this list, but can you explain the rest of your picks?

Re: your ten best current actor list
Russell Crowe - probably the best of the bunch
Ray Winstone - fantastic in everything I've seen him in Matt Damon - I've never been less than impressed Heath Ledger - the best of the younger crop Ben Kingsley - masterful in everything he does Jeff Bridges - in my mind, the best American film actor of the past 35 years Clive Owens - incredible presence Daniel Craig - see above Paul Giamatti - never less than great Jim Broadbent - the Alec Guinness of today edited to add that I think Sean Penn is in a class by himself. |

Re: your ten best current actor list
agree with:
ray winstone ben kingsley clive owen christian bale sean penn johnny depp adding hugo weaving - despite being famous for ubernerd roles (in which he is perfect with minimal effort) he is equally good at playing a down and out loser, deceptive conman, drag queen etc, much more flexible than many outside AU might realise philip seymour hoffman - meticulousness in his detailing of even small roles means everything he does is very memorable, has proved he can more than handle a leading role when necessary too john turturro - so many classic roles for a man working with immediately unlikeable features bill murray - automatically makes any character he plays immediately adorable in spite of any flaws they might have, a rare ability |
