Top 10: Contemporary Male Actors

A very subjective, personal Top 10 should be at this point in order. I've been meaning to start this blog with something like this, but had no idea, who should I put first, who last and if anyway such list had any sense. Now I think it doesn't have to have any sense. It's just pure pleasure. If anyone wanted to ask, why these particular actors, not any other, I must admit that for me, the most important feature is attitide. Toward acting, life, cinema. That's the most telling feature. Not the looks, films, life partners, status. Those vary. But what stays is the attitude. So here we go.

10. James McAvoy

Favorite roles:

"Last King of Scotland," "Starter for 10," "Atonement," "Becoming Jane," "X-Men: First Class."

Jane Eyre

No,  no - there is no new film adaptation of the classic "Jane Eyre" by Charlotte Bronte, don't worry. I just reminded myself of how great the book is. In the last years, there actually were three (sic!) wonderful film adaptations, one from 1996 directed by Franco Zefirelli, with Charlotte Gainsbourg, William Hurt and Anna Paquin, a TV mini-series with Ruth Wilson and Toby Stephens (2006) and the latest, Cary Fukunaga's from 2011 - with Michael Fassbender, Mia Wasikowska, Jamie Bell, Judi Dench and Sally Hawkins. Can't decide which I like most, but since Fassi is in the last one, the choice is simple.
