Best protagonists of 2007

0348_3131.jpg


1. Anton Chigurh (Javier Bardem), "No Country for Old Men"
Bardem rocks a bowl cut — and manages to look menacing. Give that man an Oscar!

2. Evan (Michael Cera), "Superbad"
Why? Because he's so darn dorky, yet adorable.

3. Lars Lindstrom (Ryan Gosling), "Lars and the Real Girl"
Only Ryan Gosling could make craziness (with a blow-up doll companion) so endearing.

4. Juno MacGuff (Ellen Page), "Juno"
Smart-mouthed and sassy (even in the advanced stages of pregnancy), Ellen Page as Juno is hilariously memorable.

5. John McClane (Bruce Willis), "Live Free or Die Hard"
Somehow, Bruce Willis manages to keep us wanting more via his role as a trash-talking cop.
