Someone mentioned that I need to rent "Million Dollar Hotel", so I might try that next. We rented "The Aviator" and I will watch that tomorrow. I've always liked Howard Hughs. I like movies about real people, too...and movies like "A Beautiful Mind", "The World According to Garp", and "Rainman".
Any Dustin Hoffman fans out there? My favorite male actors are: Anthony Hopkins, Al Pacino, Dustin Hoffman, Robbin Williams, Sean Penn, Robert De Niro, Johnny Depp, Brad Pitt ( I don't particularly think he's the hottest, but he can act...he's proven that...) and Ewan McGregor (only because he IS hot)...
For women actors I completely adore Ashley Judd...I think she is the most elegant little woman and she always plays these roles where she beats the crap out of bad guys, or outsmarts them. I also like Sandra Bullock, Faye Dunnaway, Cherize Theron, Angelina Joli (she is the most beautiful woman in the world...in my mind), Sophia Loren, and Claire Forlani.
I don't particularly care for the acting of Charlie Sheen, Julia Roberts (though she made an excellent documentary where she lived with a family in Mongolia), Harrison Ford, Jim Carey, Pierce Brosnan... It was very difficult to see Jim Carey in that movie...um...I can't recall the name of it...the serious one...After all the overacting he does in all the other films, it didn't seem possible that he could be sad.
