Who is your favorite actor? (films, comedy, drama, actors)

[JohnHAdams]

I'll admit to owning most of the movies that Daniel Craig has starred in. He has taken some brave roles in controversial movies and I like that. Plus he always gets the girl. Just like James Bond.

[Cida]

For some reason, this is harder for me than actress. There are some actors that I love, but aren't necessarily the best, or may not have a lot of range, like Gregory Peck and Errol Flynn. I've come to love Edward G. Robinson and Alec Guiness.

[Whyte Byrd]

Far too many great actors to claim a favorite but I will list one just to stay on topic; Colin Firth.

[D. Scott]

Ben Kingsly! From comedy to drama to playing a gangster his versatility is incredible!

[Pawporri]

Gene Hackman, George C. Scott & Sir Anthony Hopkins - 1st. Tier

Certainly a consideration for 'most talented actor.' A subject for another thread....if this thread had performed better.

[Cavaturaccioli]

I'd say Daniel Day-Lewis is the most talented actor around.

I used to answer this question with Harrison Ford, but I'm starting to lean towards Ryan Reynolds now. I've liked him since Two Guys, A Girl and a Pizza Place and he's just getting better and better.
