For actors, it's Clint Eastwood. I like other actors too, but none of them really compare in my mind to the enjoyment of watching Clint Eastwood. For favorite performances, "In the Line of Fire" is my favorite. "Gran Torino" and "Million Dollar Baby" are standouts as well. For actresses, I like Rachel Mcadams My favorite performance of hers was "The Notebook."

As for others, for actors, it tends to be the older actors, like Anthony Hopkins (Remains Of the Day), and Gene Hackman, who retired, that I like. For actresses, I also really like Amy Adams (Doubt) and Anne Hathaway ("Rachel Getting Married.") Of the up and comers, I like Emma Stone (Easy A, The Help).

At the moment I'm a little obsessed with Jessica Chastain.

Last film I saw her in was the wonderful Take Shelter.

Some others:

Carice van Houten - She was good in Black Book.

Kristen Scott Thomas - Amazing in I've Loved You So Long.

Watch her in this, she is stunning as Edith Piaf - the film is so so but her performance is worth watching it for:

Nausicaa... if you hadn't put Carice van Houten above that pic, I'd have sworn it was Cate Blanchett.

She looks gorgeous in that pic...

I don't see it lol, but oooo thanks for reminding me - Cate Blanchett is another I adore right now.
