Great actor who has been in some of my all time favorites but I find him to be very one dimensional which is why I didn't include him. DeNiro on the other hand I feel is at least on par with pacino and also very versatile. Perhaps I am over analyzing

Do you think it's because of his Michael character? Have you ever seen And Justice for All? One of the best performances by any actor ever!

Great! I can't wait to hear what you think of it. Just keep in mind when it was filmed ('79) ie; no cell phones, digital cameras, etc. Other than those types of things, the movie holds up today.

ooo I forgot about Tom Hanks. Should add him to my list.
Never a fan of Harrison's, but he's a decent actor.
Are you thinking of Samuel L Jackson? What has Fishburne done?

Meryl Streep

Ellen Page
Kate Winslet

These 2 were excellent very young.

Leo was exceptional in Basketball Diaries and Gilbert Grape imo.
