..that maybe it's 'ok' for actors to have a limited range, to excel at what they do, rather that insisting they have to fulfill a complete range?
Is excelling at what they do 'type-casting'?
This maybe separates the great actors from mere 'character' actors, but I feel certain actors have certain roles down to a 't'.
A great actor, for me, is someone like Montgomery Clift in the Misfits, playing a macho cowboy when in reality he's a fragile gay.
Even Orson Welles never really escaped the roles that he played.
Thinking about versatlity, how about Tim Roth (Little Odessa, Planet of the Apes) or Chris Cooper (just look at his pedigree: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0177933/)?
