Of the nationalities you put above the british actors are well known and recognized by the Academy awards.

But in the other hand, there´s only a few festivals that support and project foreign movies with extraordinary performances. And worst, in many countries foreign movies are not shown because they use to be not commercial movies (like the Hollywood superproductions).

I totally agree with Cool but  It's not hollywood's guilt that they have encouraged  thier countrys' actors by supporting financially   festivals like the  grammies and oscars . The American media is so strong that it made its movies and festivals(internationally) a standard for fame and successeed . however there are so many even young actors from differwent countriea that can reach hollewood' standard.

Yeah! Because usually the Hollywood standards are pretty faces and amazing bodies!!!

There´s a lot of really good actors waiting for an opportunity!! I believe in the last 2 years the people has been opened to experiment and to know about another countries and cultures.

For example, I can tell that many mexican actors have more opportunities now than 5 years ago. Mexican only appear in movies like thiefs, drug dealers and doing cleaning. Now little by little they started to appear in more important roles at the movies.

I expect the same for actors of foreign countries.

Nowadays there´s nobody better Will Smith. Because He is an excellent actor and a great person behind the cameras. Magazines and newspapers in all the world try to catch him in any embarassing situation, but they never manage to do it. In that last one "I´m the legend", He proved one more time, He is the best of the world, playing up almost all the time by himself. That´s why in my point, Will Smith is for while the best one!

Bye. Tongue out

The truth it's difficult to see movies from other countries but from from English-speaking ones.

Also, it depends on the kind of movie and the atmosphere that is wanted. Actors from different cultures will express logically diferently, cause their behaving in real life is also different. Japanese express a lot with the eyes, south america express a lot with the voice cause it is usually louder… So it's difficult to compare and chose a favourite Tongue out
