Who is he?

This is not a possible question to answer, I have a lot of favourite actors and favourite actresses so I cannot tell you who is my favourite actor.

There is not any strict condition that you must name only one person
I don't think that you have a thousand favorite actors.

Okay so I will name more than one, but this is something that needs thought my first is:

Victor Sjöström, a brilliant actor and also a pioneering film director who worked in Sweden, 1920s Hollywood and then Sweden.

As a young man:

As an old man in Ingmar Bergman's "Wild Strawberries" (1957)

Peter Lorre, a great actor especially in Fritz Lang's "M" (1931) "M" is one of the greatest of cinematic masterpieces and Fritz Lang himself considered this film to be his greatest film.

M (1931 film) - Wikipedia

Also I like Peter Lorre in British Alfred Hitchcock films "The Man Who Knew Too Much" (1934), "Secret Agent" (1936) and also the American films "The Maltese Falcon" (1941), "Arsenic and Old Lace" (1944), "The Beast With Five Fingers" (1946), "Beat The Devil" (1953) and others.

Gregory Peck, Tom Hanks, Tom Cruise.

I know, I know he's a nutcase extraordinaire... But he's also a great actor. You believe who he portrays himself to be.
