6&7) I've never seen the movie version. I've seen it on stage twice--once in Philadelphia and once as a college production--and enjoyed it very much, but no, not my favorite. I'm sort of curious why you thought of that one.
8) A quick glance at his filmography reveals that I've never seen a Mamet movie, although I did see a college production of "Bobby Gould in Hell." So he couldn't be my favorite screenwriter. Again, anything specific that made you think of him? And anything by him that I just have to see?
9) Ah, Michelle Trachtenberg, the girl whom I've never met but was always a part of my childhood, whether as Nona or Harriet or {we'll forget Penny because it wasn't Trachtenberg's fault that her character wasn't as kick-ass as in the cartoon} or Dawn. She's certainly played some really amazing characters with great competence. It's been an impressive run so far, no doubt, and I'll always have the utmost affection for Michelle, but I feel that still just isn't enough to earn the title of "favorite actress." Maybe when she's played a few more roles and earned an Academy Award nomination or two (hint).
10) Erm, no. I'm one of those who put down Angel season four as their least favorite season, actually.
