Tom Cruise:
Maybe I was a little harsh about Cruise. Since I've definitely blown my chances with the man
, I'm going to stick with my overall initial opinion of his acting. DS- you're probably rightÉits more the cheesy American feel good/moral of the story films I object to rather than him! I have enjoyed many of his films. As an underage youngster I enjoyed watching Risky business with my mates and he was very nice to look at in MI. I'd probably plunge for Born on the Fourth of July as one of his best roles and Eyes Wide Shut as one of my lesser favourites.
Melanie Griffith:
I've got to confess I haven't seen her in anything apart from Lolita and I don't think that performance is enough to base an opinion on.
Sean Connery:
Could listen to his voice for hours. Highlander and the Untouchables are good. Can't think of a bad movie for him.
Julia Roberts:
I really like her and loved most of her movies so would have to be hard pushed to choose between Steel Magnolias, Erin Brochovich, Pretty woman, Sleeping with the Enemy. Erin Brochovich it is. My least favourite would definitely be -Michael Collins.
Robin Williams:
Love the man. Great actorÉ.I loved him since I can remember. Remember Mork and Mindy? He probably doesn't want to remember but I do! It's so very hard to chooseÉ..Good Will Hunting, Dead Poet's Society, GOOOOOOOD MORNING VIETNAM!!!! I even liked Mrs Doubtfire. The least fav would have to be Hook.
Sigourny Weaver:
Good actress from what I've seen in "Gorillas in the mist" and Ghostbusters! As these are the only two of her movies I've seen, then they are the best and worst in that order!
Clint Eastwood:
Dirty Harry, Play Misty for meÉ..Two Mules for Sister Sara- one where he seduces a nun? Oh and the ones with the orangutan ? I wanted one after those movies....can't spell...help Heather! Again, utmost respect for his acting so no negatives there!
Elizabeth Taylor:
Not a huge fan but I really liked her in National Velvet. She also played Amy March in Little women. Didn't like her character very much but she played her role really well. I even pondered putting a peg on my nose every night to make it smaller after seeing her snobbish performance! Can't think of a bad 'un. Sorry.
My favourite men are:
Robert Redford -everything he was HOT when he was young
John Malkovich first enjoyed him in Death of a Salesman at school but who could ever forget him in Dangerous Liasons- a personal favourite.
Robert De Niro (Taxi-"ya talking to me?")
Al Pacino (love the Godfather movies)
Ewen McGregor in anything but Star Wars
Jack Nicolson (One Flew over the Cuckoo's nest - a fantastic film). I think I need to change my favourite 3 movies list now.
As for the ladies... June Allyson, Leslie Caron, Doris Day, Julia Roberts, Judy Dench and Kate Winslet. All fantastic actresses in my opinion!
Really got to go back to work.
