Browse Recommended Movies By Actor

I figured some people might enjoy being able to sort through my recommendations by actors. If an actor appears in (or does voice-over work for) one or more movies that I've recommended at all (whether in my cult films, tier 4, or top tier lists) then they will appear on this list. However... I’m limiting myself only to actors who I think have a very recognizable face - there are so many “hey, it’s that guy!” type actors and so now you can put a name to a face! The number of recommended movies an actor has appeared in will be in parenthesis next to the actor's name. I'm constantly watching movies, so if I add any new movies to an actor’s page I will let you know on my updates section! Enjoy!

 Helpful Notes:
1. If an actor has participated in an amazing movie or TV show (aka my Tier 1 pick) then their name will be BOLDED. 
2. If an actor has been in a Tier 2 or 3 (aka Good or Great) movie or TV show then "*****" will be to the right of their name.
