Not sure if this has been asked before, but here goes...
Who is the most watchable actor/ess? I mean, the person on screen who, for whatever reason, always manages to hold your attention. Might not be the best at their art, but you can't stop watching them once they're in front of you.
I'll offer a few
Lee Van Cleef
Raul Julia
Peter Sellers
Helen Mirren
What say ye?
Gary Oldman, even in his crappy movies, and same for Johnny Depp. Kate Blanchett too.
Oh yes, Kevin Spacey should have been on my list. Am I the only person who loved K-Pax? Dennis Hopper, and Katherine Hepburn too. 'The Lion in Winter' is on my top ten film list.
Vintage: Gregory Peck (except for his Ahab) and newbie not mentioned yet, Russell Crowe.
BRAD PITT
I WOULD HAVE TO SAY BRAD PITT IS ONE OF THOSE ACTORS YOU JUST CAN NOT STOP LOOKING AT ON SCREEN. NO MATTER WHAT ROLE HE PLAYS HE ALWAYS LOOKS GOOD. I THINK HE'S CAPTIVATING. HE MAKES A MOVIE WORTH WATCHING EVEN IF THE SCRIPT IS NOT THAT GOOD.
welcome to the 'fray', alstar;
but i suspect the subject is intended to dilineate the qualities of those who impress us with positive feelings 'above' the waist!
Robert Duvall. I dunno why. Can't really explain it.
