Steve Buscemi and Gary Oldman
I like Viggo Mortenson, also, but I don't think he's that good of an actor.:shrug:

how about William Petersen.
He plays the department head who is going deaf in CSI. He also had a pretty good role in Manhunter, the first Red Dragon movie.

Ryan Reynolds
he played Van Wilder, Berg in "Two Guys, A Girl, and a Pizza Place". He's barely in the new movie The Inlaws , but he is a funny focker. For being young and very talented, I think that we should see him more.

SIXFIVE- Definitely Peterson. He was great in the baseball movie Long Gone with Dermott Mulrooney and Virginia Madsen.
For an actress......Marisa Tomei.
She could blow away any of the actresses who have been in the revolving "star-vehicle" doors of late whether it be Bullock, Roberts, Lopez,Sorvino, etc. Has it all...looks, ability to do comedy and drama. Just never really took off like she should have. She's actually popped up a bit more here recently but for years was literally off the map. Every time I used to watch another canned performace by some no or semi talent I could never understand why someone like Marisa couldn't find her way into at least one of those parts.

a couple actors who have never the attention they deserve:
John Terlesky-Deastalker 2 (a must see)
Bruce Campbell-Evil Dead trilogy

Agree with William Peterson. Manhunter plus the excellent suspense thriller 'To Live and Die in LA'. Plus always thought Dennis Quaid was a quality actor.
