Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

Your list, except for Cooper, is filled with personalities which I find

very different from great acting. Hirsch has no gravitas, no weight. Compare him to Kaas. No comparison. If they were boxers, H would be a welterweight and Kaas a heavyweight.
Disagreement, which is healthy, on "Brothers." I found it very good. It's very difficult to deal with the deepest of emotional issues, which Bier consistently does, and not degenerate into maudlin melodrama.
I'd say Sean Penn is a good American actor but, for some time, he's suffered a bit from "Pacinoitis." Gosling? One good role as that addicted public school teacher so it's a bit early to say. That, as I recall, was very good. But he seems.... boyish. That's my major gripe with young American actors (Clooney doesn't fit the argument, nor does Keener). Depp, Pitt, Hirsch, Gosling, Maguire, Gyllendall, Afflack (the younger) all look like boy-men.
