dirtypillows , Yeah, Ford is a bit of a chump within the emotion stakes. He can get angry or down, but it never appears layered or nuanced. Ford is more a big screen personality, than a deep actor. I haven't seen Regarding Henry for a while and that is an interesting role for Ford, but as far as I recall, he just starts out as an arrogant and bullying lawyer, who ends up a simpleton, but is still rather leaden and flashes that phony grin of his, as though it will make him appear charming. Keanu Reeves is another one who is like a dead lump and monotone in portrayal. It works for some of his roles.

Gillian Anderson.
Word is she was considered for the role of Lady Penelope in Thunderbirds (2004), but Jonathan Frakes thought her acting was too wooden to do the role justice.

His initials are the same as the western Missouri city known for its BBQ.

Timothy Hutton?  Hutton did just fine for his role in OP. He was wound so tightly that he held all his emotion within. That was the point and he did release this in several scenes.

I actually like him a lot, and I love Ordinary People and Taps. It's just that I had a college roommate who would always make fun of Hutton's (perceived) lack of emotion/expression in movies, so I just posted this for fun.

Hutton's star was short lived and he was a bland and un-charismatic screen prescence overall. He was terrific though in OP and that image you posted of his face speaks a thousand words of nuance.

Keanu Reeves is another one who is like a dead lump and monotone in portrayal. It works for some of his roles. Good catch. I never thought of it before, but when I read your comment I immediately thought of him in "Working Girl", and though he is admittedly very good-looking ( he was hot in "American Graffiti"), he is totally bland. I love Melanie Griffith in it. Keanu can do comedy, I think.

Eminently huggable... What was wrong with his mother?

Eminently huggable... What was wrong with his mother? Well we know she was a narcissist, but different in the way that say Nurse Ratched was, or Mommie Dearest. Ratched and MD wanted absolute control over those they were guardian over and to keep them down and obtain and destroy their souls in the interim. Beth wanted control over her life within and have everything in its place as she thought it should be. She wasn't a horrible scary woman like Ratched or MD, but she was a cold woman who just couldn't deal with mess. It tainted and tarnished her and she just couldn't be giving of herself, when it didn't suit her ideal. She was a strange and complex woman and is a difficult one to unravel.

Mexican actor -- yes, he's Mexican despite his name -- Hugo Stiglitz (Nightmare City).
In everything I've seen him in, he's completely inert.

Benedict Cumberbatch.
Not precisely a correct choice, as he turns on the emotions tap, but the emotions never look anything other than fake/unconvincing. Kind of like a log putting on different masks throughout a performance, none of the emotions indicated ever seem to be emanating from inside him.

That was my initial thought, but I realized she isn't all that bad in the non-Twilight stuff. On the contrary, I'm not sure who else name at the moment.

I wonder how the actor got work? Charles Bronson was always accused of being emotionless. But I never really got that. I liked Charles Bronson.
