Nice list. It's good to see some Hackman love. He's not in my top 10 but I've always thought he should be lumped with De Niro, Hoffman, and Pacino. My list: 1. Humphrey Bogart 2. Toshiro Mifune 3. Marlon Brando 4. Robert De Niro 5. Al Pacino 6. Jack Nicholson 7. James Stewart 8. Charlie Chaplin 9. Jean Gabin 10. Henry Fonda

Nice picks! All great ones!

Great list Steve ! I think all of your choices would have a solid chance of being in my own top10...my order might be a bit different but every one of them is fantastic ! I recently saw "The Godfather I & II" on 4K, first time watching those movies since I was a kid and I gotta say Al Paccino in part2 is absolutely incredible ! Not my favourite movie but wow, Al Paccino in that is amazing, I'm stunned to learn he didn't win an oscar for that role. I really like Denzel Washington as well, two of my favourites that he's been in would include "Glory" (also starring Morgan Freeman) and "Man on Fire". Dustin Hoffman is great as well, if you haven't seen it then I recommend "Little Big Man" (an absolute favourite of mine). Morgan Freeman is always excellent and ofc if you watch "Unforgiven" you not only get Morgan Freeman, Gene Hackman and Clint Eastwood but Richard Harris as well...what a cast ! My favourite Anthony Hopkins movie is not all that popular (I've only met two people that liked it) but it's "Meet Joe Black" I absolutely love that movie and I love Hopkins in it !

Another impossible list. I will mention I always liked Gene Hackman, Roy Scheider and Barbara Stanwyck a lot. A modern favorite I have to admit is Ryan Gosling. I like Emily Blunt too.
