I'm suprised that no one has mentioned Kevin Spacey he's an excellent actor, and from what I hear he is one of the few people from hollywood this is also just as good on stage as he is on screen.

I love Kevin Spacey, and you're right, it's a shame no one had mentioned him. Pay It Forward, American Beauty, and K-PAX...all so good. By the way the K-PAX books are very fun to read.

Philip Seymour Hoffman is a great actor who doesn't seem to get great movies. He was awesome in Doubt. Although I have my reservations about her, Meryl Streep is good actress and was very good in Doubt as well.

Edward Norton and Cuba Gooding Jr. are good, but don't always seem to get good parts.

Marlon, no joking here. One thing that I always look for in an actor is the expression in the eyes. If the eyes don't convey the emotion, then to me it is not good acting. That is one thing that often bothers me about Will Smith. For example, in Independence Day, when his best friend dies and Smith cries out NO! His eyes are absolutely dead - they convey nothing.

You, my good sir, can tell a story with your eyes.
