Add Favorite Actors/Directors on Profile page
The ability to list one's favorite films is great, especially when sharing preferences with friends; the opportunity to list favorite actors would be just as convenient. Adding a "favorite actors" category to a users profile page would be a fairly simple change that could really add a lot of personality to each account.

I just don't get it, what is keeping Letterboxd so long from updating the website with new features?! Like this one is an easy one I'd love to see be implemented but instead it's been under review for 5 years!!!

Under review for five years?

Yes, this what I came to suggest! I want these favorites to be addable, as well as track-able. For example, if Quentin Tarantino announces a new film, and I somehow don't hear about it, I'd love to be notified through a feed or a push notification on my phone about this news. I also support tracking and "faving" being different metrics. I may not love a director I track, just want to be notified of something new. Similar to how we can rate movies with five stars, but not "heart" them.

It would be great to share my favorite actors and directors as well! I'm new to using the app, but I really love it. I'm a film major, and it would be cool to see how my favorite actors and such change over time.

What's taking so long to do this? I don't understand.

I support this. Adding fav actors should be a must for a movie based social website.

I think it would be awesome to have a favorites section for actors/actresses we love. You can limit it to 4 like the Favorite Films section on the profile. You already have separate profiles for each actors/actresses so adding a small heart or symbol that we can click to add the person to our favorites would work well.

Just like we have favorite films, you should have options to add favorite actor, actress, producer to our profiles.

Having a tab next to your favourite films on your profile to display your favourite directors also. Probably limited to 4 like the favourite films one.

Isn't it a fun idea that you could not only add your 'favorite movies' to your profile page, but also your favorite directors (and/or actors, on a seperate row)?

Oh absolutely yes! Fantastic idea, just something else this site would easily benefit from. I especially love the director option! :)

yes. this is awesome.
since you already have director and actor pages id like to see a top 4 actors and top 4 directors for each profile page (or one or neither if the user chooses). and for each, just like the current top 4 films, there's a "poster card" but it is the photo on the already created actor/director pages...
