\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Many years ago, using the weekly TV guide that came with the Sunday Chicago Tribune, I started keeping track of all of the movies I had seen over the course of my lifetime. \u00a0The guide would list the two main stars for each movie, and that is a tradition that I\u2019ve carried on in my database ever since.\u00a0 Given those guidelines, it is time once again to look at the now 111 actors that have starred in at least 10 films that I have seen, as of August 1.<\/p>\n

We continue today with the seven actors that have starred in exactly thirteen movies that I have seen, an increase of one from three years ago<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Kristen Bell<\/strong><\/p>\n

The\u00a0Veronica Mars<\/em>\u00a0star made her first \u201cbig screen\u201d appearance in my life with the television remake of\u00a0Reefer Madness<\/em> in 2005.\u00a0 She\u2019s been a pretty steady presence since, with a two-year gap in 2015 and 2016 being her largest.\u00a0 After a four-year absence, she returned to my screen in 2025, thanks to her role in 2021’s Queenpins<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Gene Hackman<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hackman, who died in 2025 at age 95, first entered my movie consciousness when I saw the original Christopher Reeve Superman<\/em>. \u00a0My most recent experience with his work remains 1971\u2019s\u00a0The French Connection<\/em>, which I saw in 2018.<\/p>\n

Katherine Heigl<\/strong><\/p>\n

Katherine Heigl first burst on to the scene in 1994\u2019s\u00a0My Father, The Hero<\/em>, which I took in the following year.\u00a0 After achieving television stardom, she leaped back to the big screen in a big way in the mid-2000s, including four films in three years between 2006 and 2008.\u00a0 She last showed up on my screen in 2018, with the ironically titled\u00a0Unforgettable<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Tommy Lee Jones<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tommy Lee Jones first showed up on my screen back in 1993 in\u00a0The Fugitive<\/em>. \u00a0 My big Tommy Lee Jones years were 1997 and 2000, when I saw him in two films per year. \u00a0After a few years away, my most recent experience with him was in 2020, in 2019\u2019s\u00a0Ad Astra<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Mila Kunis<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

After years on\u00a0That \u201970s Show<\/em>, Mila Kunis first moved to my movie screen in 2003, with the unfortunate\u00a0American Psycho II: All American Girl<\/em>.\u00a0 After a six-year break, she came back with a vengeance, appearing in seven films I saw between 2009 and 2011.\u00a0 I last saw her work earlier this year, thanks to 2022\u2019s\u00a0Luckiest Girl Alive<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Julianne Moore<\/strong><\/p>\n

Julianne Moore first showed up on my screen in 1996, thanks to the previous year\u2019s\u00a0Nine Months<\/em>.\u00a0 She was helped by two movies each in 2003, 2011, and 2014.\u00a0 After a decade away, she returned to my screen in both 2024 and 2025, with Echo Valley<\/em> being my most recent exposure to her work.<\/p>\n

Al Pacino<\/strong><\/p>\n

My first experience with Al Pacino was in 1997, when I saw him in\u00a0City Hall<\/em>. \u00a0I splurged on his films in 2000 and 2001, when I took in five, including\u00a0The Godfather<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0The Godfather II<\/em>.\u00a0 After a twelve-year absence, Pacino returned to my screen twice in 2020, in 2017\u2019s horrible\u00a0Hangman<\/em>\u00a0and 2008\u2019s\u00a0Righteous Kill<\/em>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
