Puriste passionés

Here is my list which is rather personal in relation to my sources and my knowledge, it already seems quite correct to me…. But …

Let’s debate and create and complete the list together!!! Add your own list in comments (which I will check and add the names if validated) If the person is less known, let us know their actor name and why you consider them to be a Purist, Passionate or Most Hated
