Day One: Favorite Actor

Okay, so I have to get this post out before the day ends, since the April Challenge is on.

Day One: Favorite Actor

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

James Stewart

George

I thought about this all day, and I have to go with always great Jimmy Stewart. Whether we are watching him do the right thing at the expense of his dreams in It's a Wonderful Life or watching him watch his neighbors in Rear Window, he is always a joy to watch. And while L.B. Jeffries and George Bailey are two of my favorite Stewart roles, there are so many more performances of his that I love.

Some of his roles I enjoy, time and again, include David in After The Thin Man, Alfred Kralik in The Shop Around the Corner, Macualy Connor in The Philadelphia Story, Rupert Cadell in Rope, Elwood in Harvey and Dr. McKenna in The Man Who Knew Too Much.

Infinitely watchable, Jimmy Stewart is my favorite actor.
