Anthony Hopkins has real talent. Too many actors/actresses are branded as talented these days when all they are really capable of is playing themselves. Anthony becomes the character that he's portraying and is so believable that quite often I forget that it's actually him. I've loved his films since I was very young and his voice is so eloquent. Thank you Sir Anthony Hopkins.

And now, THE FATHER! One of the best ever!

He's one of the best actors in the history of cinema

Truly one of the greatest to ever grace the screen.

Honourable Mentions: Instinct, The Rite, Meet Joe Black, The Wolfman, Hearts in Atlantis . . basically anything he's ever done, without a doubt the worlds greatest living actor in my opinion.

Best Actor on the planet!!!!

I'm glad you recognized his ingenious performance as Dr. Robert Ford. Many people don't give Anthony Hopkins enough credit for that role, they don't believe the show's success is mainly attributed to him, but it most certainly is. No other actor can play a highly intelligent character who's both reserved and intimidating more convincingly.

Fun fact: Hopkins' total screen time in The Silence of the Lambs, is only 24 minutes. He won an Oscar for Best Actor in a Leading Role, and the movie itself had more than 60 awards and 50 nominations. What a legend! Him and Denzel Washington are my all time favorite actors

His VOICE...!!! I'd listen to him all day long!!! 100% talent! What an admirable man!
