Also don't forget Denzel he's pretty good also.
The more I hear about Ray, the more I want to see it.
Morgan Freeman is a great actor. So are Laurence Fishburn, Robert Guillaume and even Denzel Washington (I say "even" because I think he gets a bit more hype than he strictly deserves).

The fuck there isn't. How many Wayan's brothers + sisters are they? At least 62 of them. Then you have the rappers turned actors, the actors turned rappers, comedians turned actors, criminals turned actors... I suspect there are more black actors in American movies today than white actors. Not that I can bear to stomach the regurgiated bullshit Hollywood calls movies these days.
And you all forgot about the fucking man himself.
If you look behind him you'll see that big Oscer is looking at him like he stole that fucking thing. A brother is always getting put down by the man, no matter if he's paid his dues or not.
for me, its a tie between denzel washington and sydney p. (can't remember hes name). But it sounds like portier or something.
SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

Probably more wealthy blacks in this country now with rappers, actors, sports players, etc etc, than whites (per capita) and ya claiming a fucking statue is frowning at Poitier for getting an oscar. Fucking amazing.

I am not sure if I should laugh or cry after reading your reply.

BTW: He is on my top list regardless of his race. He is a first class actor who brought something to the screen which do do not find in the majority of films today.
D. Washington is an ok second choice, but he tries too hard.
Fox is coming up fast. He was outstanding in Collateral and I have a feeling he will move up to position 1.01 after I see Ray.

Thank you! I can't belive I made it this far through the thread without him being mentioned. "In The Heat Of The Night" is proof enough alone that he should be on ANY list of the best American actors of all time and not just black actors.
I love the work of Forrest Whittaker. He is an excellent actor turned director.
Morgan Freeman also owns a farm and really cool restaurant in Mississippi. You can find him and his wife there often. A friend went for her birthday and Morgan was in the place that night. He and Mrs Freeman stopped by their table and actually sat down and had dessert with my friends! Really down to earth people.
