David Strathairn came immediately to mind. Kenneth Branagh too. I don't get the reported beauty of Minnie Driver, but she certainly is adaptable. Not
even close to tired of Emma Thompson or Helen Mirren yet. Second votes for Firth, Kusack AND his sister Joan, and definitely, certainly. Philip Seymour
Hoffman. Adore Johnny Depp, but he's been "discovered" by just about everyone now. I know other names will come to mind after I log off.
