In movie industry, the older they get, the more precious/respectable they are .... or at least they should.. What do you think of the reality as in local and global perspective?

Who's your favorite old/veteran actor/actress you love most? Which film they act and what role they played that really moved you..

By veteran, you mean still living right?

DeNiro, Pacino, Ed Harris, Hoffman, Finney, Duvall, Diane Keaton, Meryl Streep on the top of my mind.

Dude, Clooney and Bruce Willis are are not old enough to be called veteran as far as i'm concerned. Lets redefined "veteran" for those whose older than 60..

sean connery hands down. this guy still got the "bee's knees". So freaking awesome and he got style. Just love his scottish accent.

harrison ford. this guy is so cool, i like him since star wars and indiana jones.

samuel L jackson. this guy gotta be my favorite black actor. Man the way he talks, he just got the "black guy" style. When he curse, man he's the best!! (English mutha******, do you speak it!!). Favorite movie is The Negotiator

morgan freeman is another actor i like. It's the style i think that makes me think he's one of the best black actors around.

My Top Favorite:

1) Anthony Hopkins - Brilliant Actor. Love his voice and accent. Soo class! Great character. His Movie would be
Silence of the Lamb and Nixon.
2) Clint Eastwood - The most coolest and heroic actor on earth. His movie is "Unforgiven", "The Good, The Bad
and The Ugly".
3) Morgan Freeman - The Shawshank Redemption. Andy's best friend.
4) Christopher Walken - The Prophecy, Deer Hunter, King of New York.
5) AlPacino - In Dog Day Afternoon, he played a gay robber. Very different character than most of his movies but he
made it look so damn real.
6) Robert De Niro - In "Deer Hunter" he was captured by Vietnam soldier and was forced to play Russian Roulettee
with his buddy, Christopher Walken. Great great scene.
7) Meryl Streep - Out of Africa, Music of the Heart.
8) Susan Sarandon - Dead Man Walking.

Redford had plastic surgery. That disgraces him as a male

why can't he just age gracefully

I have no prob he did plastic surgery. Plus, he's face already got so many wrinkles, maybe he want to lessen it a bit, not do major changes. Anyhow, it does'nt affect on his acting skills.

you guys forgot Michael Caine and Peter O'Toole. Whichever movies they are in, they practically steal the scene

I'm not a fan of Caine myself either. He seem to be playing the same role over and over again. Yes, he does play a good "good" character, but don't you get tired of it? The same problem for me with Morgan Freeman and Will Smith.

ghey doesn't mean that he's not a good actor. I'm not really a fan of his either, just want to point out that you guys forgot to mention him. But from the (few) movies I saw, his presence does make quite a difference

Basically, British people can't act. Only exception: Chirstian Bale (He's a Scot by he way) and Anthony Hopkins and Mr Bean

THE REST ARE CRAP
