Chief Dan George always lit the screen with great timing, fine lines and pure grace. Here I was thinking
"Ah!!, how much more American can you get?" Alas, he was Canadian and I suppose North American doesn't count...

Philip Seymour Hoffman, though he hasn't been in many movies that needed (his) "saving".

Morgan Freeman, though he kind of glows more than shines.

Christopher Walken used to have it...

Javier Bardem, Claude Rains, Sidney Greenstreet, Peter O'Toole, more non-'mericans.
