Movie Talk: Thespians
Part 5 of 6
I'll admit, this isn't scientific. I believe it's entirely impossible to create a top five list from these categories given the wide array of nominees to choose from. However, this isn't a test, so post away. Actors 5. Denzel Washington Glory Malcolm X Philadelphia Training Day Antwone Fisher 4. Carey Grant North by Northwest Bringing up Baby Notorious Philadelphia Story Arsenic and Old Lace His Girl Friday 3. Marlon Brando Apocalypse Now Godfather Streetcar named desire Julius Caesar On the Waterfront 2. Tom Hanks Turner and Hooch Sleepless in Seattle Philadelphia Forrest Gump Apollo 13 Toy Story 1 & 2 Saving Private Ryan Road to Perdition 1. Humphrey Bogart Maltese Falcon Casablanca African Queen The Big Sleep Treasure of the Sierra Madre Caine Mutiny Honorable (Couldn't fit in) Mentions: Jack Nicholson Gary Cooper John Wayne Kevin Spacey Alec Guinness Actresses 5. Nicole Kidman The Hours Moulin Rouge The Others Eyes Wide Shut Dead Calm 4. Audrey Hepburn My Fair Lady Charade Roman Holiday Breakfast at Tiffany's Sabrina 3. Ingrid Bergman Casablanca Notorious A Woman Called Golda Anastasia Gaslight 2. Elizabeth Taylor Cat on a Hot Tin Roof A Place in the Sun Cleopatra National Velvet Life with Father 1. Katherine Hepburn Philadelphia Story Bringing Up Baby African Queen Lion in Winter Holiday Honorable (Couldn't fit in) Mentions: Greta Garbo Sissy Spacek Jodie Foster Meryl Streep Marilyn Monroe Don't get me wrong, I do think some of the more contemporary actresses do fine work, it's just that I believe they'll be given their fair share by some of the younger crowd here.

Thank you... post your own. You don't have to go into detail or anything, just a top five or something similar. Due to your string of avatars, I have an inkling as to who is going to be number one.

I remember reading that people used to compared Natalie to a young Audrey Hepburn, they do have similar looks

See, I knew I'd forget somebody... I love Jimmy Stewart's movies.
If DD-L doesn't win an oscar, the Academy will be a farce... well, moreso than they already are.
