In the top 40, the male actors other than Caucasians were Danny Treho, Samuel L. Jackson, James Earl Jones, James Hon, and the women were only Fay Dunaway and Karen Black.

Many of the top actors arePersonality actorIt plays any role, such as tough guys and bad guys. Like Hollywood, Mr. Reynolds carried out research as if "bacon index" could be made even in baseball, and as a result, "People who have many connections have a long career I am playing on a different team, not on the team. " If you look at this in the movie world, it is important not to go out to a single studio alone but to appear in movies abroad, such as France.

As a matter of course, a life-saving actor will continue to play an active part in the film industry, so there are many opportunities to co-star with actors, so there is a possibility that Dennis Hopper who died in 2010 will not be the top, Kevin Bacon There is a possibility that it will come to the top, Reynolds says.
