actor/directors

[thepaulo]

again one of my obsessive compulsive list thingies...
Drew Barrymore debuted Whip It as her first directorial effort
and the kid from A Christmas Story (Peter Billingsly) did his first directorial effort this week...Couples Retreat
so There are a million actors who've done and I'd like to make another list

[thepaulo]

almost all the big actors have done it...some have won Oscars for it
Warren Beatty, Mel Gibson, Kevin Costner, etc.

Clint Eastwood
Ben Stiller
George Clooney

Bruce Muculloch and Mark McKinney from Kids in the Hall

of course Clint is the standard bearer...he has had an absolutely stellar career as a director ever since Unforgiven....well a few average pot boilers mixed in

I'd have to say the definitive answer here is Woody Allen.

There is no definative answer but if there was it would be Orson Wells.....

but I would say Woody owns the Actor/Writer/Director
and he lends it out to Albert Brooks

Very entertaining, very sly and maybe his biggest grosser.
