Favorite's of the Film Industry

Top 5 Favorite Actors

5. Patrick Wilson - His performances are always astonishing and is very selective on what films he does which is a rarity these days.

4. Denzel Washington - The most versatile actor around.

3. Ryan Reynolds - Completely natural at what he does. Unfortunately, he has been pigeon-held into comedies. He'll take over the world when The Green Lantern comes out.

2. Joseph-Gordon Levitt - After seeing The Lookout and 500 Days of Summer, I am convinced he is the next big thing.

1. Christian Bale - He invests so much into his character portrayals. Why hasn't he won an oscar yet?

Runners up: Billy Crudup, Brad Pitt, & Casey Affleck

Top 5 Favorite Actresses

5. Amy Adams - Sky's the limit for her. Has already been nominated twice for an oscar.

4. Jennifer Connelly - I always seem to be so satisfied with each of her performances. 

3. Zooey Deschanel - Can anyone resist her amazing charm? If you can, see All The Real Girls, Yes Man, & 500 Days of Summer, and you will go weak in the knees.

2. Cate Blanchett - The female equivalent to Marlon Brando. Is there anything she can't do?

1. Natalie Portman - How many girls have shaved her head for a role? She is awkwardly amazing in every role she has ever portrayed. 

Runners up: Laura Linney, Rachel McAdams, & Alison Lohman

Top 5 Favorite Directors

5. Martin Scorsese - All of his films are instant classics. Can anyone debate his genius.

4. David Fincher - His dark visions can even be portrayed in a lighter film (Curious Case of Benjamin Button). 

3. Christopher Nolan - Has such a unique vision for films which results in spectacles.

2. Judd Apatow - Has a daring look on comedy where rather creating absurd and far fetched situations, he relies on natural occurences.

1. Cameron Crowe - Never exploits his genius and never over does it. His films showcase his attention to detail.

Runners up: Frank Darabont, The Cohen Brothers, and Wes Anderson
