Conchata Ferrell

One of my favorite female actresses, she is hilarious and very good at acting. Conchata Galen Ferrell was born on March 28th, 1943 in Charleston, West Virginia, daughter of Mescal Loraine (nee George) and Luther Martin Ferrell, and grew up in Circleville, Ohio.



She attended West Virginia University and graduated from Marshall University with a degree in social studies in education. She is married to Arnie Anderson and has one daughter, Samantha.
She is recently known for her role as Berta the housekeeper in the CBS sitcom Two and a Half Men, for which she received a 2005 and a 2007 Emmy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series. She was previously nominated in 1992 for Best Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for her role as Susan Bloom on L.A. Law.
I liked her in the movie Mr.Deeds personally. I also liked her in Edward Scissorhands,True Romance and K-Pax.

Kevin Spacey

Born July 26 1959 Kevin Spacey is possibly my favorite actor ever. He played in many roles and he is actually able to pull it off. Unlike others that I will not name at this point.
Kevin grew up in California and began acting in 1980 as a stage actor. His first academy award was for his role in The Usual Suspects for best supporting actor. Then came American Beauty and from there his career soared starring in Seven,LA Confidential,Pay It Forward and Superman Returns. I liked the movie K-PAX personally.Now I guess he intends to stay in Britain and eventually get British citizenship. Directing at a theature named Old Vic, from the sounds of it I assume he doesn't plan on coming back to America but who knows really except for Kevin himself? Another one of my favorites with him in it is "The Negotiator". Great movie along with Samuel L. Jackson.  Another good one that I would recommend watching is "Swimming With Sharks".
