Has any one of you actually met and gotten in a decent conversation or done an extensive research on the actors you claim to respect?
Not being sarcastic but how can you respect an actor or anyone that you really don't know anything about other than their movies and interviews which is generally for PR?
I respect their acting abilities and specific performances. I never mentioned respecting their real personalities (as if I could even meet dead people in the first place).
John Wayne, Jimmy Stewart, Humphrey Bogart, James Cagney, Robert DeNero, Al Pacino, Cary Grant, Gary Cooper, Claude Raines, Gregory Peck, Jack Nicholson, Marlon Brando, Sir Alic Guinness, Spencer Tracy.
Dame Maggie Smith, Dame Judi Dench and Ray Winstone.
They all seemed very nice to me and as robertpolyglot said, it's a respect of their acting ability and the work they've done that he meant. Most of us understood that though apparently not all....
That is cool that you actually had the opportunity to "chat" with them long enough to have an idea and I am not surprised at all with those actors.
And no, when you say "respect" an actor, I didn't automatically assume it meant their work. If that is the case then why not just use the verb "like"?
Perhaps I am an odd guy but using the word "respect" for the work an actor had done (in front of a camera), never occurred to me.
Sorry that I am not sharp enough to read between the lines.

I met a few but I took the question as respecting their acting and professional abilities. Anything wrong with that ? Can't you respect some actors for their skill in their chosen profession ?
