Rock Hudson in "Pillow Talk."
I told my parents I wanted to be a juggler when I grew up, but Daddy Crowley said I didn't have the balls.
Peter O'Toole - My Favorite Year
It's hard to pick a favorite actor/actress, but in terms of pure entertainment value, recalling Cher as Loretta Castorini in Moonstruck still brings a smile to my face and is the most memorable. The scene where she slaps Nicholas Cage and tells him to "Snap out of it!" is classic.
Daniel Day-Lewis - "My Beautiful Laundrette"
Can't choose, Actor: Daniel Day-Lewis in Last of the Mohicans and Actress: Cate Blanchett in Carol.
Jack Nicholson in "the Shining"
My favorite TWO actresses are duh and duh one duh's is Silver Lining Playbook and the other duh's is not Caligula but Calendar Girls.
My favorite actor is Jack Nicholson and my 2 of his are The Shining and Chinatown
Treat Williams -- 1941
@cc423, I'll have to see 1941. I liked Treat Williams a lot in "Hair."
If I can add an actress, it would be Catherine Deneuve, "The Umbrellas of Cherbourg"
Great choice!
Geoffrey Rush and Dustin Hoffman, but I am now disenchanted with Hoffman.
With GR, tossup between Quills, The Life and Death of Peter Sellers, and as Captain Barbossa. He is just always a delight whatever he's in.
Bill Clinton, playing a non-rapist.
Cary Grant in North by Northwest.
I LOVE My Beautiful Laundrette! So hot.

Can you tell I adore Richard E. Grant? /grin/
I'm going off the board for single favorite cinematic battle between a(n) (male) actor and an (female actor formerly known as) actress, with O'Toole and Hepburn in The Lion in Winter.
@Glue - Do you like Richard E.Grant in 'Withnail + I'? One of my favourite films.
Bud Cort in Harold and Maude My all time favorite movie and I still love his performance to this day.
I also love Tony Curtis in "Some Like it Hot." Jack Lemmon and Marilyn Monroe are also great in that movie, but Tony plays the loveable jerk so well. True to life, if his biographers can be believed.
For actresses, Imma go with Jane Russell in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes because I adore her. OK, OK, she's not the greatest actress in history, but the movie is so funny and I don't care, I love her wisecracking.

ANDREWBW: You are by far the smartest person on CDAN today! The Bitter Tea Of General Yen is one of my absolutely favorite films! What a film history memory you have! Talk about memories! They just don't make films like that anymore. They can't! It would be considered racist. Not to mention the General was not Asian! Thanx for making my week!
Emma stone .. The help
Alan Rickman - Snow Cake
Daniel Day Lewis- The Unbearable Lightness of Being
Dennis hopper, robert duvall, and the rest...apocalypse now was a classic...also love al pacino
That's a good one actually. "There Will Be Blood" absolutely TERRIEFIES me. The hair on my the back of my neck/back are all goosebumps as I type this WTF. I hate TWBB.
Two, Cary Grant and Sophia Loren in Houseboat
The Asian guy in "Breakfast At Tiffany's" also wasn't Asian. 😂
But in some cases, casting an Asian person would've been even MOAR racist: Like if they made Teh Ancient One in "Doctor Strange" it would just play into stereotypes of the "wiseman guru" nyeeeh. And I hope they don't make Wong a servantman (I just learned that's how he was originally written WTF).
I really like Audrey Hepburn in "Charade" (especially the opening scene when she just met Cary Grant's character).
Yesterday I parked at a high-end mall to go to the Japanese embassy next door in the capital city of the country I live in. The lights were unlit partially and teh shop assistants were just getting ready for a day of work... Only try coffeeshops had actual customers in it. I was walking in this mall 'alley' (it was wide, though). And I was the only person there, walking between the Louis Vuitton shop and something else that had these loopy/triply effects And it was so quiet/dark I could hear my own footsteps. I felt like Holly Golightly at the breakfast hours, I nearly fucking cried. I was so happy I'm a HUGE FAN of hers! And tehnn I saw teh Tiffany & Co. shop. It was crazyyyyy.... 🗽👩🏻🚕🍂💛
Oh, I also like Stephen Strange as Doctor Strange (LOL because that's teh level I play at—who's that Benedict guy Gwenpool mentioned in the comicbooks? I don't know him).
Completely OT - but in all the years I have been reading this site - today I noticed something that I can't stop seeing now. In the bottom right not quite corner of the banner it looks like there is a man's face... Has anyone else ever noticed that?
Robin Williams in The Birdcage and Helen Slater in The Legend of Billy Jean
One of my favorites who never gets much mention (he's been dead for many years) is Richard Jordan. Logan's Run, Gettysburg, Dune, the Hunt for Red October. This guy was riveting on-screen. Never quite a leading man, he was always compelling, always on the edge of major stardom. Died of brain cancer shortly after Gettysburg. He would have been one of the real heavyweights if he had lived.
Michael Nyqvist is another great actor who has left us. He starred in the Swedish version of The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, and played the gangster father of Alfie Allen in John Wick. "With a fucken pencil."
Coincidentally, both men died at 56. Both gone far too soon.
bette davis of human bondage
Does Gauge still work?
Nah. Couple years ago she did a feature dancing gig with Aurora Snow, and a scene afterwards, because there was a lot of interest, but that was it.
So many I can think of, but I'll list two from the past decade in a show I loved:
Mirielle Enos
Joel Kinnaman
THE KILLING.
Can I wait for the dust to settle and answer in 2018?
Ellen Burstyn in Requiem for A Dream
Meryl Streep in A Devil Wears Prada
@Kimberley - I haven't yet, but I will now. I just looked it up and will be watching it this weekend. Thank you for the suggestion!
@Josh G YES! Gary is great in everything. Especially loved him in True Romance.
OMG what?! I'm afraid to look! 👻😱😖
You're giving me goosebumps. Eep!!!!
"The Killing" is sooo good.
That's all...
i'm with you 346nyc and scandi on the killing, but can you remember a lamer, more disappointing, illogical denouement to the original rosie plotline than the season 2 finale? aside from dexter, that is?
DDL - Last of the Mohicans
Robin Williams, Tom Hanks, Chris Farley, Cate Blanchett, Kate Winslet, Kiki Drunkst did amazing in interview with a vampire - that sticks out in my mind for some reason, Meryl streep and Winona Ryder
Amy adams - nocturnal animals
Jennifer lawrence - silver linings playbook
Kate Winslet - revolutionary road
Emma stone - lalaland
Jake Gyllenhaal - Donnie Darko
Ruth Gordon. Harold and Maude and everything else she did!
