Cameroon Diaz as favorite actor..wtf. Good thing no one has mentioned Ashton Kutcher so far. Well I guess it's all about personal choice. Here are some of my favorite actors by the movie.

Morgan Freeman and Tim Robbins in The Shawshank Redemption.
Russell Crowe in The Insider, Gladiator and Beautiful Mind.
Tom Hanks in Forrest Gump and Saving Private Ryan.
Dicaprio in The Aviator, Departed and Gangs of New York
Denzel Washington in Training Day.
Matt Damon in Courage under fire, Bourn and The Informant.
Kevin Spacey in Life of David Gayle. (better than Usual Suspect’s Keyser Soze)
Clint Eastwood in Unforgiven and True Crime (True Crime is relatively unknown Eastwood flick but a great one with Isaiah Washington)
Jack Nicholson in About Schmidt
Sean Penn in Mystic River.
Billy Bob Thornton in Sling Blade and One False move
Casey Affleck in The Killer inside me and The Assassination of Jesse James.
Female:
Laura Linney in Life of David Gayle.
Meryl Streep in The Iron lady.
Rachel McAdams in The Lucky Ones.
Frances McDormand in Fargo.
I usually don’t like the hyped Bollywood movie with big actors as they are usually the same i.e in Salman Khan movies there is no more than him beating 50 dudes with his shirt off and in SRK movies it is same thing over and over i.e him playing a romantic college dude even if he is in him mid 40’s. I like Amir Khan though and his movie taare zameen par was his best. I don’t know why many independent and low budget movies in Bollywood don’t get much success as there are many good one like mumbai meri jaan & life in a metro. Also, I liked Saif Ali Khan in Ek Hasina Thi.
About Nepali movies, the last one I watched was Chino when I was on 5th grade so can’t comment on it.
