Accordingly, actors themselves may seem particularly suited for the job of director. It’s a transition much easier said than done, however, and one that tends to yield more misses than hits. Indeed, one needs to look no further than “The Jesus Rolls” to grasp that John Turturro is certainly no Coen brothers. Then again, most directors can’t really act, with few even bothering to try. Yet an impressive number of actors have stepped behind the camera and proven themselves adept. Clint Eastwood, for example, has earned more Academy Awards and nominations for his work as a director than he has as an actor. Ben Affleck and Greta Gerwig appear to be following suit, with several major directorial efforts under their respective belts and more on the way. Who else has made the transition and yielded a great film in the process? Let’s find out. Stacker researched multi-hyphenates, choosing 25 actors who have directed one great film. To be included, the actor had to have directed at least one movie with an IMDb user rating over 6.5 and a Metascore of over 65.

Millions of people are fleeing violence, persecution, and economic instability, attempting to start a new life in a more tolerant and secure country. Recognizing the global issue, the United States has agreed to admit four times as many refugees this fiscal year under President Biden than it did last year under his predecessor. What exactly constitutes an individual as a refugee? The Department of Homeland Security defines a refugee as a person outside of their country of origin who is unable or unwilling to return because of persecution or a well-founded fear of persecution. Refugees are not to be confused with individuals seeking asylum (or asylees) who meet the definition of a refugee but who are also already present in the United States or at a port of entry in the United States. To find where U.S. refugees come from, Stacker utilized data from the Refugee Processing Center, operated by the U.S. Department of State. Countries were ranked by total refugee acceptance from 2016 to April 30, 2021. Read on for a better understanding of why these individuals are seeking a new start in America.
