Angela Basset and Lawrence Fishburn are top rated actors and among the black community they maybe legendary. If one recalls the roles that the two have played, you would call the two actors the  best of the best. The actors have done thearter, comedy, drama , action and a list of  other types of films.  They have received many awards along with plenty of press. Well, why are neither Basset or Fishburn on the top 10 list of actors earning money. It is reported that Angela Basset earns 2.5 million a film while Fishburn only earns 2 million a film. I would think this is a little out of balance considering the body of work the two have formulated when it comes to film.
