Interresting list Gringo. However, I wouldn’t have put Cagney so high. I don’t know why, but his personality never really “grabbed” me.
I just love how he basically carries his films with his great screen presence, I mean, he even managed to overshadow Bogie in AWDF and The Roaring Twenties.
I haven’t seen these two films, so my opinion may change when I do see them.
I wouldn’t have listed Cagney, at all, myself; but, he is a damn fine actor and his screen presence can be riveting! I went through a phase (I hate to use that phrase, but I couldn’t think of a better one!)…where I thought Cagney and Bogart were the greatest actors of all-time. As the years have gone on and I have changed…I find that I still rank Bogie as a favorite, but Cagney has slipped off my list for a reason I can’t quite explain.
No denying his talent, though…and I can certainly see why someone would rank him as their favorite.
I like your list, Gringo!
Bogey and Cagney are too smallish to be called great …
Well, they are slightly bigger than Alan Ladd! ;D
LOL
not when Alan wears his high heels …
Yeah, but they’re bigger than DeVito (come to think of it, who isn’t?)!
Angelo Rossitto. Though his credits are huge, from silents to MAD MAX BEYOND THUNDERDOME.

Here goes…
6 - 10 move around depending on my mood. Today this is the list. 
Yes, I agree that Peter O’Toole is a great actor. For Lawrence of Arabia alone he deserves to be in there.
No particular order (under construction!):
Yılmaz Güney
Paul Naschy
Franco Nero
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Henry Fonda
I haven’t heard of the first two: what have they appeared in?
Vaguely know the name Paul Naschy, at least I think I do, but his face looks unfamiliar, so maybe mixing things up
Yılmaz Güney is a Kurdish/Turkish actor that was mostly a director. He directed Yol for example and also appeared in a few Turkish cult films.
Paul Naschy is some times said the Spanish Lon Chaney, he appeared in a lot of Spanish Horror films from the 60’s and 70’s. Kind of a cult legend.
Should have known that, have seen Yol, but didn’t think of a director in this context
