Is Hollywood lacking good actors or good directors?

65.26.228.178

O.K., I know both are lacking. But which one is the worst?

What got me to thinking was actors like Al Pacino. He has had some fine performances but he also has a tendency to overact, examples - Scent of A Woman, Heat, Devil's Advocate. I know this is not news to anyone, but is Pacino a hit and miss actor, or are there just not enough good directors out there to know how to get the most out of him?

My thinking is that it must be directors. Directors are measured by boxoffice gross, not artistic acheivment.

Any other opinions?
