Actors and Actresses....

Do you feel betrayed when beautiful, likable actor/actress starts portraying really mean, hard to like characters??

Do you start to not like them and are reluctant to watch them again, no matter how beautiful and talented they obviously are?


I personally have experienced an intense dislike for several actors because of this, but them again, I am totally shallow about such things and wish to hear many others opinions on this subject.

Maybe.

Ok, ok....

I did love it when Harvey Keitel was such a complete asshole, that deserved to burn in Hell, in Bad Leiutenant and some others...

But there are several actors I am now not even interested in what they are in next...cause their characters have turned me so cold...you know?

Oh honey, I am not expecting anyone to agree with me...that's not the point of starting one of these discussions.;)

I am actually interested in what other minds are thinking here:cool:

Well, we're telling you...

I don't judge the person by their roles. The only thing that affects me is if they are such a terrible actor I don't ever want to see them perform again.

I wish Steve Martin hadn't done the Pink Panther, but it won't make me stop watching his movies.

Nova,i'm really bad on this one.For me,its like i really connect with characters or something.Just came to mind,Brad Pitt in Kalifornia,i hated him after that movie.I also start loving an actor because of certain roles they play.Maybe its a woman thing!
