More often than not, it's the writers who make a show/movie/play great. It's the actors' job to not screw it up.

A great actor can't make good bad writing.

But, great writing can make a bad actor look good.

Saw a very good movie a month or so ago called, "Nora's Will". If you get a chance, check it out.
