Interesting actors

[Doug Nelson]

It's probably happened to all of us, you'll be scrolling through the movies on cable, nothing looks interesting. Then suddenly you find a movie that you've never heard of, but with someone in the cast that immediately gets your interest and persuades you to try watching the movie.

For me it's William H. Macy.

Who are your actors of interest?

Re: Interesting actors

Michelle Yeoh and Josephine Siao. And the chic that played Snow in Hero.
And most of the cast from Vampire Effect.
And... and...
Sorry, can't remember many names right now.
But I would know them if I saw them!

Re: Interesting actors

Amongst the big established actors and actresses I have been gaga about Renee Zellwegger every since I first saw here in a little independent comedy/satire call Love and a .45. I've been telling everyone about her since way before she was known and she has never let me down, even in a couple stinkers she made. Is there no limit to her talents?!?

Amongst the not so well known, there is something about Rachel Weisz that makes my primative heart go bumpidy-bump.

Speaking of hormones, let's not forget Jennifer Connelly who has certainly proved that she's not just another pair of pretty eyes, so to speak.

Here's a couple publicity photos of my girls. Since the original of Rachel was not a great pic, I've made some improvements in the 2nd where I was practicing recoloring.

Re: Interesting actors

for me :
Robin Williams (from birdcage to one hour photo)
Al Pachino (one word -scarface)
Robert DeNiro (from ronin to analize this to hide and seek)
p.s. agree with Nancy about Jonny Depp

Re: Interesting actors

i agree with nancy on johnny depp. and perhaps oddly, i include dustin hoffman in the same class as depp because both have have a tendency to play the odd roles and make them believable. both have great range.

i'll also watch almost anything catherine zeta jones is in, but perhaps as much for her looks as her acting.

but probably my favorites are the british, classically trained shakespearean types, sir lawrence olivier, peter o'toole, patrick stewart, michael caine, richard burton and so on.

on the female side, i could never resist watching anything with sophia loren or raquel welch.
