The crazy idea to name just twenty-five of the greatest actors of the twenty-first century is certainly a lofty and incredibly daunting proposition. But the chief film critics of the New York Times, A.O. Scott and Manohla Dargis have bravely taken on this challenge and selected the performers whose work over the last twenty years they have considered to be absolutely transformative experiences. Most of the actors on this list have been working long before the year 2000 but the focus was on their extraordinary work they have created specifically during this century.
I am certain there will be many who will be equally outraged by the selections and the omissions of actors on this highly subjective list. They are certain names on here I would not have put on my list and I might have rearranged the order. But regardless of all that, it is a thoughtful and intriguing selection that features a diverse and international group of actors that I'm sure many will agree have delivered several of the most outstanding and memorable performances of all time.
