The females should be separate.

**fufu** · 03-10-2006, 05:41 PM

I'm curious to what the generation gap will do for this thread.

I couldn't really think of many female actresses that I think are good. I mean, there are alot of good ones, but I can't think of any great ones.

I remember my American Cinema teacher was saying how many of the top actors in the 1970's weren't traditional good-looking people.

To name a few:
Dustin Hoffman
Jack Nicholson
Robert De Niro
Diane Keaton
Meryl Streep

7.) Macaulay Culkin

that is a joke right?

**min0 lee** · 03-10-2006, 05:59 PM

Samuel L Jackson
I forgot about him, he can be pretty good at times. If you look back into his career you'll notice he's been in some good movies.

Norton's very good and Gibsons another one. Damn, 10 may be too short a number.
I also liked Marlon Brando.
Gene Hackman is also good.

Agreed, the list should be longer. Gibson, Norton, Brando adn Hackman I forgot about those guys. Kevin Spacy is a good actor also, I thought the negotiator was a good movie.

**min0 lee** · 03-10-2006, 06:08 PM

This list should be broken up to have comedians in there also.

Kevin Spacy, Brad Pitt (yes him) and Morgan Freeman were all great in 7

I think Coulkin is great because his acting was just as good when he was 12 as it is now. I can't think of many other people that are like that.

btw - I like Micheal Jackson too.

I think he is misunderstood
