What is the B+ list? Are you familiar with the A and B lists? If an actor is on the B+ list, it means they score A’s and B’s.
Nicolas Cage
Nicolas Cage is the best actor on the B+ list. Moreover, Gone in 60 Seconds, Face/Off, and National Treasure are my favorite Nicolas Cage movies. Bangkok Dangerousis another spectacular Nicolas Cage film.
It is no secret Nicolas faced financial issues. But that doesn’t discount his brilliance. While Wesley Snipes went away for tax trouble, nobody ever says Snipes isn’t a fantastic movie star because of it.
What is more, Nicolas Cage reached what appeared unreachable. At one time, his name was bigger than any other in Hollywood. So, what happened?
If you want to protect your money, you must live beneath your means. Unfortunately, it’s trying for celebs to turn down extravagant mansions, yachts, and things. Hollywood is a glamorous place where everybody’s rich and/or high. Sometimes it’s best to learn the hard way. You have to lose some things, to win something valuable.
Who remembers when Cage was on top? There was a time Tom Cruise praised Nicolas. Don’t close the book on Cage just yet. He can make a comeback like Birdman Michael Keaton.
Cuba Gooding, Jr.
Cuba Gooding, Jr. is also a top thespian on the B+ list. His Jerry Maguire days are long gone. But his portrayal of Nicky Barnes in American Gangster refocused attention on Cuba’s phenomenal acting.
Have you seen Men of Honor, Radio, and Gifted Hands? The illuminating movie star can play both perspectives of the hospital room. It runs in his blood.
Did you know Gooding is one of Hollywood’s most prestigious names? Cuba’s father has been in show business for over 50 years. Therefore, little Havana learned how to entertain at an early age.
Cuba Gooding, Jr. embraces challenges. When you look into his eyes, you see a fearless tiger ready to fight. Plus, the Fighting Temptation (pun intended) preserves and showcases his strengths in every movie.
