Best director among actors?

Robert Redford (from Ordinary People onwards). Personally, I’d put Redford up there with Clint Eastwood when it comes to directing.🙂As for other Honorable Mentions: Sean Penn, Mel Gibson, and Ron Howard.

Robert Redford - solely because of Ordinary People ☕

Unfortunately, I haven't had the chance to sit down with Ordinary People yet. I'll make sure to add it to my watchlist. 🙂

Heh, well, looks like we actually hit the same thought at the exact same time this time—you didn't beat me to the punch for once. 🙂

Ben Affleck actually caught me off guard with Gone Baby Gone. He might actually have some staying power...

A superb, raw portrayal of emotion.

Kudos to Affleck—I was just as impressed by GBG. This is definitely one I've been waiting for 😍

GBG was easily one of the standout films of the year. The Magdalena Sisters is also a solid piece of work—that performance by Peter Mullan is something else.

True, I completely overlooked Mullan. I haven't actually sat down to watch his debut, Orphans, yet, though it seems quite promising from what I've gathered.

As for Affleck... while Gone Baby Gone is certainly a solid piece of work, I find myself skeptical about whether Affleck can truly replicate that level of success again. We shall see, I suppose.

Clint definitely 🙏🙏

Roman Polanski☕

I find myself thinking of Roman Polanski, Charlie Chaplin, and Clint Eastwood at the moment.
