Before 1940's: N/A The Golden Years: N/A New Hollywood: Harrison Ford maybe, but it's really a default choice since I haven't seen quite enough films from this era, but I enjoyed American Graffiti and l like Star Wars. And Tim Curry only has RHPS, so. 1980-2000: Johnny Depp/Whoopi Goldberg 2000-Present: Johnny Depp/Helena Bonham Carter |

I am liking all the love for Jimmy Stewart and Ford... Also I decided that we could make best actress list another time however the problem we only remember Bette Davis, Katherine and Audrey Hepburn before 1965... |

Just because you love men doesn't mean you have to hate women. |

I think it's your self-hatred that you're projecting onto those who love men, in this case, women, that lead you to make that comment. It's quite tragic

I tried and failed to pick an actor & actress for each era - but I have just too many favorites. |
