MEME! (You want in on this?)

Comment with “SHOWTIME!” and I will give you ten actors and ten actresses. Then post in your blog (or comment if you don't have one) with your favorite films of theirs.

ack_attack gave me...

Actors

1. Dustin Hoffman Is it safe? Gotta be Marathon Man. SO GOOD, and don't think the Princess Bride connection is wasted on me.
2. Ben Stiller Zoolander. What is this? A school for ants? Plus, little cameo from a pre-vamp Eric Northman as late model, Minkus.
3. Jon Favreau Oh, Favs. Swingers. He's so money and he doesn't even know it. I think he knows now.
4. Justin Long Dodgeball. I liked him better before he decided he was smooth. Wonder how he feels about Jay Baruchel taking over his abandoned niche?
5. John Travolta It's between Pulp Fiction & Grease... Pulp Fiction. Just so iconic. (How much did I want to say Boy in the Plastic Bubble? SO MUCH)
6. Michael Caine I'm gonna go back to Little Voice. Why has MC been relegated to such peripheral roles these days? Sidekicktown, population you, bro.
7. Matthew Modine This is awful, but I gotta say... What the Deaf Man Heard--which I only saw because I was DEEPLY into my ill-conceived Jerry O'Connell phase. But MM was good!
8. Walter Matthau IQ. He is a totes adorbz Einstein.
9. Jim Sturgess Had to look him up. And since I hated 21, let's go with Across the Universe.
10. Ben Kingsley Hmmmm. Sneakers.

Actresses

1. Susan Sarandon Bull Durham, no elaboration necessary.
2. Amy Adams Before the fame, before the awards, before the red hair. Drop Dead Gorgeous.
3. Kate Hudson Almost Famous. She's perfect in that part and she makes the film. (And she had the best song in Nine.)
4. Kathy Bates Fried Green Tomatoes. She's older and she has more insurance. Bitches.
5. Nora Dunn She is absolutely one of the little gems in Drop Dead Gorgeous: I can look at this glass and see it's half full, which in the beauty pageant biz means WHERE THE HELL'S MY WAITER?
6. Anjelica Huston The Royal Tennenbaums. Wes Anderson makes such good use of her. No idea why she's not Mrs. Fox, especially since it sounds like Meryl Streep is doing an impression of her.
7. Elizabeth Banks Wet Hot American Summer. She tastes like a burger. I don't like her anymore.
8. Sharon Stone Ugh. Why is she still famous? The Quick & the Dead. She's not trading on her vagina and it's got Leonardo DiCaprio and a pre-LA Confidential Russell Crowe.
9. Amanda Seyfried Mean Girls, because I can also predict the weather with my boobs.
10. Parker Posey She was the best part of Superman Returns. Wow, that's really something Lex. It's freakin' Gone with the Wind.
