Top Ten Actors & Actresses
With the exception of Johnny
Depp, who has given outstanding performances,
in such movies as Edward Scissorhands, Pirates of the Caribbean, Donnie Brasco,
and so many other films; all the other top nine actors as well as all of the top ten
actresses are from
the past. Not that there doesn't exist some terrific actors and actresses
today, but
for us those on the list created many more memorable movie performances,
with far less budget, smaller casts and without the use of a variety of special
effects.
We felt these were the cream of the crop. Nor did we base these on number
of Oscars
they have won, but the total consistency of their creative works.
