Montgomery Clift
Tony Curtis
Leonardo DiCaprio
Kirk Douglas
Robert Downey, Jr.

  1. Interesting list. I'd be interested in reading your reasons for choosing who you did. Glad to see James "Jimmy" Stewart there and wish Cary Grant had made your top 20...

  4. I think your choices are superb…but Michael Douglas is at the very top of my list. He performs such a great role and delivers everything you would anticipate and more! He is a legend in my book
