Harrison Ford, actor and icon, has landed at the top of the Forbes Highest Paid Actor list. Ford raked in $64 million last year for his fourth turn as Indiana Jones for Indiana Jones & The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull. Not bad for a guy that rarely shows up on the big screen anymore - I'm sure that's of his own volition. I love Harrison because he's completely bucked the system. He could have easily gotten locked in to a typecast role with his famous portrayal of Hans Solo in the original Star Wars Trilogy. Instead he went on to star in numerous films and took a chance on another franchise (see above); yet he's retained the freedom to star in any project of his choosing. He's a rarity in Hollywood - it's almost enough to forgive his engagement to a toothpick.
