have a hard time ranking these, because it's so subjective, and it depends so much on my mood on a day-to-day basis, but here are some of my favorite actors (slightly ordered): Clive Owen Peter Sellers Jimmy Stewart Don Knotts Jim Varney Andy Griffith Steve Martin when it comes to actresses, it's even more difficult for me to list favorites, and with films, forget it... i once tried to list my Top 100 favorite films, and in the end i was sorely disappointed, because so many films i loved weren't even listed!

Imagine a flag of any country and C.F. Kane-like voice in the background while you read this.
I suggest to play a game................ drum solo ........... a cooperatively-arranged project: mission to select best actors and actresses. Some of us already done that (me, dreyfus, clouseau) but i suggest to do it together, just like electing a president, it will be a fiest of democratic choice, acting professional critics and putting all minds together.

well i'm not sure if we have a high enough number of regular participants to really pull off something like this, but if you really feel inspired, you're welcome to try it! in the meantime... here are some of my favorite actors (slightly ordered): Clive Owen Peter Sellers Jimmy Stewart Don Knotts Jim Varney Andy Griffith Steve Martin looking at my list, i think it's important that i should add John Wayne in there somewhere... can't think how i could have forgotten him before!

So you think Owen should be no. 1? i have a hard time putting them in any order... he's certainly top notch, though, #1 or not!
