Default Actors you "love"

Meaning their acting, not them personally.....also this doesn't necessarily mean they are amazing actors, but something about them you just like ie how they carry themselves etc:

For me offhand and in no order at all:

DeNiro
Pacino
Hanks
Jeff Bridges
Spacey
Streep
Anne Bancroft
Eastwood
Jack Lemmon
Walter Matheau (those 2: best "team" ever)
Walter Brennan
Jimmy Stewart
John Wayne
Katherine Hepburn
James Cagney
Roddy McDowell
William Hurt
Kathleen Turner
Joe Pesci
Ian McKellan


And in the TV actors who have also done movie work category:
Carol O'Conner
Bebe Neuwirth ("Lilith" from Cheers)
D.O. Stiers

book&pencil is on a distinguished road
There are some actors for whom I would sit through (and have sat through) a bad movie just to see them. And I will do so again, happily. A few who come to mind are:Emily WatsonGina McKeeMolly ParkerKate WinslettVera FarmigaJulianne MooreCate BlanchettEdward James OlmosSam ShepardSteve BuscemiOf course I don't think these folks are in lot of bad movies. I did, however, endure Equilibrium just to see Emily Watson.
