Firefox Favourite Manga Dragonball	Perhaps it's because of our long tradition of Shakespeare and the theatre but it seems to me that all the best actors in the world are British. Daniel Day Lewis, Daniel Craig Judi Dench Helen Mirren Kate Winslet Michael Gambon Ian Mckellen Patrick Stewart Benedict Cumberbatch David Tennant Martin Freeman Idris Elba Michael Fassbender Carrie Mulligan Pierce Brosnan Sean Connery Liam Neeson Colin Firth Christian Bale Gary Oldman David Morrisey Tom Hiddlestone Ben Kingsley Charles Dance Jermey Irons Maggie Smith Alan Rickman Ralph Fiennes That's some list and I'm obviously missing out other big names. Point is, seems that our culture produces a lot of decent actors. Perhaps it's the theatre? Perhaps we nurture or train young actors better? Perhaps it's just the accent? I dunno but it's awesome either way. Edited by Pelador, Apr 8 2014, 05:30 PM.

It's just that they are hidden among all the talentless asses that are in movies nowadays. Leo DiCaprio is definitely a class-actor. Robert De Niro, Jack Nicholson and Tom Hanks are all great actors. George Clooney, Johnny Depp, Brad Pitt and Matt Damon all have their moments. Marlon Brando was fantastic too.

I just think that institutions like the Royal Shakespeare company and stage schools for children to learn the trade early give us Brits an extra edge.
